NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Background and Basis of Presentation
We are one of the largest manufacturers and distributors of nitrogen and phosphate fertilizer products in the world. Our operations are organized into two business segmentsthe nitrogen segment and the phosphate segment. Our principal products in the nitrogen segment are ammonia, urea, urea ammonium nitrate solution (UAN), ammonium nitrate (AN), diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) and aqua ammonia. Our principal products in the phosphate segment are diammonium phosphate (DAP) and monoammonium phosphate (MAP).
Our core market and distribution facilities are concentrated in the midwestern United States and other major agricultural areas of the U.S. and Canada. We also export nitrogen fertilizer products from our Donaldsonville, Louisiana manufacturing facilities and phosphate fertilizer products from our Florida phosphate operations. In addition, we hold joint venture investments in production facilities in the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago and the United Kingdom and a fertilizer trading company near Zurich, Switzerland.
The principal customers for both our nitrogen and phosphate fertilizers are cooperatives and independent fertilizer distributors.
In April 2010, we acquired Terra Industries Inc. (Terra), a leading North American producer and marketer of nitrogen fertilizer products (See Note 4Terra Acquisition). Accordingly, the results of Terra are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements since April 2010.
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial reporting. In the opinion of management, these statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary for the fair representation of the information for the periods presented. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Operating results for any period presented apply to that period only and are not necessarily indicative of results for any future period.
These statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures included in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 25, 2011.
The preparation of the unaudited interim financial statements requires management to make use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, revenue and expenses and certain financial statement disclosures. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates in these consolidated financial statements include net realizable value of inventories, the timing and ultimate settlement costs of asset retirement obligations, environmental remediation liabilities, environmental and litigation contingencies, the cost of sales incentives, useful lives of property and identifiable intangible assets, the evaluation of impairments of property, investments, identifiable intangible assets and goodwill, income tax and valuation reserves, allowances for doubtful accounts receivable, the measurement of the fair values of investments for which markets are not active, assumptions used in the determination of the funded status and annual expense of pension and postretirement employee benefit plans and the volatility and expected lives for stock compensation instruments granted to employees.

All references to "CF Holdings," "the Company," "we," "us" and "our" refer to CF Industries Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including CF Industries, Inc. (CF Industries), except where the context makes clear that the reference is only to CF Holdings itself and not its subsidiaries.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
For a complete discussion of the Company's significant accounting policies, refer to our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year-ended December 31, 2010, filed with the SEC on February 25, 2011.
3. New Accounting Standards
Following are summaries of accounting pronouncements that either were adopted recently or may become applicable to our consolidated financial statements. It should be noted that the accounting standards references provided below reflect the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC), and related Accounting Standards Updates (ASU).
Recently Adopted Pronouncements
In January 2010, the FASB issued a standard pertaining to fair value disclosures (ASU No. 2010-6) that requires a reporting entity to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2, to describe the reasons for the transfers, and to disclose certain additional information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements of Level 3 items. This standard also requires an entity to provide disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements for Level 2 and Level 3 items. The standard became effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the Level 3 disclosure of activity, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. We adopted the level 3 disclosure requirements of this standard as of January 1, 2011. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In July 2010, the FASB issued a standard to modify the disclosures that an entity provides about the credit quality of its receivables and the related allowance for credit losses (ASU No. 2010-20). The standard requires an entity to provide greater information about the nature of credit risk inherent in the entity's portfolio of financing receivables, how the risk is analyzed and assessed in arriving at the allowance for credit losses and the changes and reasons for those changes in the allowance for credit losses. As a result, both new and previous disclosures must be disaggregated by portfolio segment or class based on how a company develops its allowance for credit losses and how it manages its credit exposure. This standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this standard did not impact our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2010, the FASB issued a standard that pertains to business combinations (ASU No. 2010-29) that requires a public entity that presents comparative financial statements to disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination that occurs during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period. Additionally, the standard expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. We adopted this standard as of December 31, 2010. The adoption of this standard did not impact our consolidated financial statements.
7
CF INDUSTRIES HOLDINGS, INC.
In April 2010, the FASB issued a standard that pertains to stock compensation (ASU No. 2010-13) which clarifies that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity's equity shares trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, an entity would not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2010, and the impact is to be applied by recording a cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings. We adopted this standard as of January 1, 2011. The adoption of this standard did not impact our consolidated financial statements.
4. Terra Acquisition
In April of 2010, we completed the acquisition of Terra through the merger of Composite Merger Corporation, our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary (Composite), with and into Terra pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of March 12, 2010 among CF Holdings, Composite and Terra (the Merger Agreement). As a result of the merger, Terra became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The acquisition of Terra has made the Company a global leader in the nitrogen fertilizer industry, diversified our asset base and increased our geographic reach and operational efficiency, and significantly increased our scale and capital market presence.
Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of Terra common stock was converted into the right to receive $37.15 in cash and 0.0953 of a share of CF Holdings common stock pursuant to an exchange offer (the Exchange Offer) and second-step merger (the Merger). All restricted stock under Terra's stock option plans and all other Terra equity-based compensation awards, whether vested or unvested as of April 5, 2010, became fully vested and converted into the right to receive cash of $45.93 per share. On April 5, 2010, following the initial expiration of the Exchange Offer, we acquired approximately 79% of Terra's outstanding common stock and commenced a subsequent offering period to acquire the remaining shares of Terra common stock. The subsequent offering period expired April 14, 2010, and on April 15, 2010, we completed the Merger in which Composite merged with and into Terra and Terra became an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of CF Holdings. In the Exchange Offer and Merger, CF Holdings issued an aggregate of 9.5 million shares of its common stock with a fair value of $882 million and paid an aggregate of $3.2 billion in cash, net of cash acquired, for 100% of Terra's common stock.
Acquisition financing and subsequent equity and debt offerings
We funded the cash requirements of the acquisition with cash on hand and with $1.75 billion of borrowings under a senior secured bridge facility and approximately $1.9 billion of borrowings under a senior secured term loan facility that provided for up to $2.0 billion of borrowings in connection with the Terra acquisition.
On April 21, 2010, CF Holdings completed a public offering of approximately 12.9 million shares of common stock at $89.00 per share. The proceeds of $1.1 billion, net of underwriting discounts and customary fees, were used to repay a portion of the senior secured bridge facility.
On April 23, 2010, CF Industries completed a public offering of senior notes in an aggregate principal amount of $1.6 billion. Approximately $645.2 million of the net proceeds of the offering were used to repay in full the remaining outstanding borrowings under senior secured bridge facility. We used the remaining proceeds from the offering to repay approximately $864.2 million of the senior secured term loan facility.
In May 2010, we redeemed Terra's 7.75% senior notes due 2019 for $744.5 million and recognized a $17 million loss on the early extinguishment of that debt.

Supplemental pro forma information
In accordance with ASC 805Business Combinations, presented below are supplemental pro forma results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

The unaudited supplemental pro forma results reflect certain adjustments related to the acquisition, such as increased depreciation and amortization expense resulting from the revaluation of the assets acquired, the impact of adjusting acquired inventory to fair value and the impact of acquisition financing. All transactions costs, including the $123 million termination fee we paid, on behalf of Terra, to Yara International ASA have been reflected as an adjustment in the pro forma results as of January 1, 2010. The pro forma results do not include any anticipated synergies or other effects of the integration of Terra. Adjustments to conform certain accounting policies have not been reflected in the supplemental pro forma results due to the impracticability of estimating such impacts. Accordingly, such pro forma amounts are not necessarily indicative of the results that actually would have occurred had the acquisition been completed on the date indicated.
Purchase price and fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed
The following table summarizes the calculation of the total purchase price and the allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed from Terra on April 5, 2010.

The acquired assets were recorded at the acquisition date fair value. Current assets included net cash of $544 million and inventory of $225 million. The remaining economic useful lives of the acquired property, plant and equipment were determined in conjunction with the valuation of the assets, and these assets are being depreciated in accordance with our existing depreciation policy.
The acquisition resulted in the recognition of $2.1 billion of goodwill, which is not deductible for income tax purposes. See Note 6Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, for further information on goodwill and the acquired intangibles. Goodwill consists of the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net acquired assets and represents both the expected synergies that will be generated by the acquisition and the estimated economic value attributable to future opportunities that will arise from the acquisition. Synergies are anticipated in the following areas: overhead reduction through headquarters consolidation and other centralization, logistics optimization including reductions in transportation spending by reducing shipping distances and the size of our transportation fleet, optimization of sales mix, procurement improvements, distribution facility optimization and other operating process improvements in areas such as inventory management, production efficiency, turnaround management, capital spending and spare parts management.
5. Restructuring and Integration Costs
During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we incurred $2.1 million of restructuring and integration costs related to our acquisition of Terra. This includes $1.1 million of restructuring costs related to employee termination benefits and $1.0 million of incremental costs such as consulting and other professional fees directly related to integrating Terra.
In connection with the acquisition of Terra in 2010, our management approved a restructuring plan which involves the consolidation of our corporate headquarters, including the eventual closure of our Sioux City, IA offices. The total expected cost of the plan is approximately $10 million, which includes employee termination costs associated with the elimination of approximately 120 positions. As of March 31, 2011, we had notified 105 employees that their positions have been or will be eliminated and recognized a total of $8.0 million of related expenses. We expect to record the remaining employee termination costs by the end of 2011 based on the timing of planned terminations.

7. Noncontrolling Interests
Canadian Fertilizers Limited (CFL)
CFL is a variable interest entity that owns a nitrogen fertilizer complex in Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada and supplies fertilizer products to CF Industries and Viterra Inc. (Viterra). CF Industries owns 49% of CFL's voting common shares and 66% of CFL's nonvoting preferred shares. Viterra owns 34% of both the voting common stock and non-voting preferred stock of CFL. The remaining 17% of the voting common stock is owned by GROWMARK, Inc. (GROWMARK) and La Coop fédérée. CFL is a variable interest entity which we consolidate in our financial statements. CFL's Medicine Hat complex is the largest nitrogen fertilizer complex in Canada, with two world-scale ammonia plants, a world-scale urea plant and on-site storage facilities for both ammonia and urea.
CFL's net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 were $155.0 million and $97.4 million, respectively. CFL's assets and liabilities at March 31, 2011 were $415.4 million and $363.8 million, respectively, and at December 31, 2010 were $314.0 million and $263.8 million, respectively.
CF Industries operates the Medicine Hat facility pursuant to a management agreement and purchases approximately 66% of the facility's ammonia and urea production pursuant to a product purchase agreement. Both the management agreement and the product purchase agreement can be terminated by either CF Industries or CFL upon a twelve-month notice. Viterra has the right, but not the obligation, to purchase the remaining 34% of the facility's ammonia and urea production under a similar product purchase agreement. To the extent that Viterra does not purchase its 34% of the facility's production, CF Industries is obligated to purchase any remaining amounts. However, since 1995, Viterra has purchased at least 34% of the facility's production each year.
Under the product purchase agreements, both CF Industries and Viterra pay the greater of operating cost or market price for purchases. The product purchase agreements also provide that CFL will distribute its net earnings to CF Industries and Viterra annually based on their respective quantities of product purchased from CFL. The distributions to Viterra are reported as financing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows, as we consider these payments to be similar to dividends. While general creditors of CFL do not have direct recourse to the general credit of CF Industries, the product purchase agreement does require CF Industries to advance funds to CFL in the event that CFL is unable to meet its debts as they become due. The amount of each advance would be at least 66% of the deficiency and would be more in any year in which CF Industries purchased more than
12
CF INDUSTRIES HOLDINGS, INC.
66% of Medicine Hat's production. A similar obligation also exists for Viterra. CF Industries and Viterra currently manage CFL such that each party is responsible for its share of CFL's fixed costs and that CFL's production volume is managed to meet the parties' combined requirements. Based on the contractual arrangements, CF Industries, Inc. is the primary beneficiary of CFL as CF Industries receives at least 66% of the economic risks and rewards of CFL.
In accordance with CFL's governing agreements, CFL's earnings are available for distribution to its members based on approval by CFL's shareholders. A portion of the amounts reported as noncontrolling interest in the consolidated statement of operations represent Viterra's 34% interest in the distributed and undistributed earnings of CFL. A portion of the amounts reported as noncontrolling interest on our consolidated balance sheets represent the interests of Viterra and the holders of 17% of CFL's common shares.
Because CFL's functional currency is the Canadian dollar, consolidation of CFL results in a cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment, which is reported in other comprehensive income (loss).
Terra Nitrogen Company, L.P. (TNCLP)
TNCLP is a master limited partnership that owns a nitrogen manufacturing facility in Verdigris, Oklahoma. We own an aggregate 75.3% of TNCLP through general and limited partnership interests. Outside investors own 24.7% of the limited partnership. For financial reporting purposes, the assets, liabilities and earnings of the partnership are consolidated into our financial statements. The outside investors' limited partnership interests in the partnership have been recorded as part of noncontrolling interest in our consolidated financial statements. The noncontrolling interest represents the noncontrolling unitholders' interest in the equity of TNCLP. CF Industries is required to purchase all of TNCLP's fertilizer products at market prices as defined in the Amendment to the General and Administrative Services and Product Offtake Agreement
TNCLP makes cash distributions to the general and limited partners based upon formulas defined within its Agreement of Limited Partnership. Cash available for distribution is defined in the agreement generally as all cash receipts less all cash disbursements, less certain reserves established as the general partner determines in its reasonable discretion to be necessary. Changes in working capital impact available cash, as increases in the amount of cash invested in working capital items (such as accounts receivable or inventory) reduce available cash, while declines in the amount of cash invested in working capital increase available cash. Customer advances do not increase available cash until such time as the customer's order has shipped and the revenue is earned. Cash distributions to the limited partners and general partner vary depending on the extent to which the cumulative distributions exceed certain target threshold levels set forth in the Agreement of Limited Partnership.
In the first quarter of 2011, the minimum quarterly distribution was satisfied, which entitled us to receive increased earnings as provided for in the Agreement of Limited Partnership. The earnings attributed to our general partnership interest in excess of the threshold levels were $51.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011.
At March 31, 2011, Terra Nitrogen GP Inc. (TNGP) the general partner of TNCLP (and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of CF Industries) and its affiliates owned 75.3% of TNCLP's outstanding units. When not more than 25% of TNCLP's issued and outstanding units are held by non-affiliates of TNGP, TNCLP, at TNGP's sole discretion, may call, or assign to TNGP or its affiliates, TNCLP's right to acquire all such outstanding units held by non-affiliated persons. If TNGP elects to acquire all outstanding units, TNCLP is required to give at least 30 but not more than 60 days notice of TNCLP's decision to purchase the outstanding units. The purchase price per unit will be the greater
13
CF INDUSTRIES HOLDINGS, INC.
of (1) the average of the previous 20 trading days' closing prices as of the date five days before the purchase is announced or (2) the highest price paid by TNGP or any of its affiliates for any unit within the 90 days preceding the date the purchase is announced.

Following is a summary of the valuation techniques for assets and liabilities recorded in our consolidated balance sheets at fair value on a recurring basis:
Cash and Cash Equivalents
At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, our cash and cash equivalents consisted primarily of U.S. Treasury Bills with original maturities of three months or less and money market mutual funds that invest in U.S. government obligations.
15
CF INDUSTRIES HOLDINGS, INC.
Short-term Investments
At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, our short-term investments consisted of a Canadian Treasury Bill with an original maturity of twelve months.
Natural Gas Derivatives
The derivative instruments that we currently use are primarily natural gas swaps and options. These contracts settle using primarily NYMEX futures price indexes, which represent the basis for fair value at any given time. The contracts are traded in months forward and settlements are scheduled to coincide with anticipated gas purchases during those future periods. Quoted market prices are observable inputs used to determine the fair value of these instruments. See Note 20Derivative Financial Instruments for additional information.
Asset Retirement Obligation Funds
In order to meet financial assurance requirements associated with certain asset retirement obligations (AROs) in Florida, we maintain investments in an escrow account established for the benefit of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) and a trust established to comply with a Consent Decree entered in the third quarter of 2010 with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the FDEP. The investments in the trust and escrow account are accounted for as available-for-sale securities. The fair values of these are based upon daily quoted prices representing the Net Asset Value (NAV) of the investments. See Note 18Asset Retirement Obligations, for additional information regarding the trust and escrow account. The fair values of the ARO funds approximate their cost bases.
Investments in Auction Rate Securities
Auction rate securities (ARS) are primarily debt instruments with long-term maturities for which interest rates are expected to be reset periodically through an auction process, which occurred every 7 to 35 days. Because the traditional auction process for ARS generally has failed since early 2008, these securities are illiquid and we are not able to access the remaining funds until such time as an auction for these securities is successful, buyers are found outside the auction process, and/or the securities are redeemed by the issuer. During the first quarter of 2011, $0.5 million of our ARS were either sold or redeemed at par value.
As a result of the continuing market illiquidity and our judgment regarding the period of time that may elapse until the traditional auction process resumes or other effective market trading mechanisms develop, we have classified these investments as noncurrent assets on our consolidated balance sheets. These ARS have maturities that range up to 37 years. As of March 31, 2011, the carrying values by range of maturity are as follows:
| |
(in millions) | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
Less than 1 year |
$ | | ||
1 year up to 20 years |
4.7 | |||
20 years up to 30 years |
71.6 | |||
30 years up to 37 years |
27.3 | |||
|
$ | 103.6 | ||
We currently intend to hold our ARS until a market recovery occurs and, based on our current liquidity position, we do not believe it is likely that we will need to sell these securities prior to their
16
CF INDUSTRIES HOLDINGS, INC.
recovery in value. Therefore, we expect to recover our amortized cost basis in the investments. As a result, our unrealized holding loss on these securities is classified as a temporary impairment and is reported in other comprehensive income (loss).
Our auction rate securities are accounted for as noncurrent available-for-sale securities. We are unable to use significant observable (Level 1 or Level 2) inputs to value these investments. Therefore, we use a mark-to-model approach that relies on discounted cash flows, market data and inputs derived from similar instruments to arrive at the fair value of these instruments. This model takes into account, among other variables, the base interest rate, credit spreads, downgrade risks and default/recovery risk, the estimated time required to work out the disruption in the traditional auction process and its effect on liquidity, and the effects of insurance and other credit enhancements. Due to the significant number of unobservable inputs that were used to value our auction rate securities, they are classified as Level 3 for purposes of the fair value disclosure requirements.
Nonqualified Employee Benefit Trusts
We maintain trusts associated with certain deferred compensation related to nonqualified employee benefits. The investments are accounted for as available-for-sale securities. The fair values of the trusts are based on daily quoted prices representing the NAV of the investments.
Fair Value Measurements Using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
The following table provides a reconciliation of changes in our consolidated balance sheet for our assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3). These assets currently consist of our investments in ARS. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset. It is reasonably possible that a change in the estimated fair value for instruments measured using Level 3 inputs could occur in the future.

In the computation of diluted net loss per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2010, 0.8 million potentially dilutive stock options were excluded because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, there were no material anti-dilutive stock options.
10. Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
We maintain four funded defined benefit pension plans: two U.S. plans and two Canadian plans. Three of the four plans are closed to new employees. One of our Canadian plans remains open to new employees. We also provide group medical insurance benefits to certain retirees. The specific medical benefits provided to retirees vary by group and location.

Our 2011 consolidated pension funding contributions are estimated to be approximately $21.6 million, of which approximately $0.9 million was funded in the first three months of 2011.
In addition to our qualified defined benefit pension plans, we also maintain nonqualified supplemental pension plans for highly compensated employees as defined under federal law. The expense recognized for these plans for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was insignificant.
We have defined contribution plans covering substantially all employees. Under these plans, we contribute a fixed percentage of base salary to employees' accounts and match employee contributions up to specified limits. We contributed $2.8 million and $1.7 million to the plans for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

14. Income Taxes
Our income tax provision for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 was $158.8 million on pre-tax income of $482.9 million, or an effective tax rate of 32.9%, compared to an income tax benefit of $4.4 million on a pre-tax income of $1.7 million in the prior year's quarter. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2011 based upon pre-tax income exclusive of earnings attributable to noncontrolling interest was 36.7% compared to 49.6% in the prior year's quarter. The effective tax rate based upon pre-tax income exclusive of earnings attributable to noncontrolling interest was lower than in the prior year's quarter due to the impact of non-deductible costs associated with our acquisition of Terra and project development costs incurred in the prior year.

Our equity method investments included in operating earnings consist of: (1) 50% ownership interest in Point Lisas Nitrogen Limited (PLNL), which operates an ammonia production facility in the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago and (2) 50% interest in an ammonia storage joint venture located in Houston, Texas. We include our share of the net earnings from these investments as an element of earnings from operations because these operations provide additional production and storage capacity to our operations and are integrated with our other supply chain and sales activities in the nitrogen segment.

The carrying value of these investments at March 31, 2011 was $433.7 million, which was $315.5 million more than our share of the affiliates' book value. The excess is primarily attributable to the revaluation of fixed assets, the value of an exclusive natural gas contract and goodwill. The increased basis for fixed assets and the gas contract are being depreciated over a period of approximately 23 years and 13 years, respectively. Our equity in earnings of operating affiliates is different from our ownership interest in income reported by the unconsolidated subsidiaries due to amortization of basis differences.
We have transactions in the normal course of business with PLNL reflecting our obligation to purchase 50% of the ammonia produced by PLNL at current market prices. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we purchased approximately $36.0 million of ammonia from PLNL.
At March 31, 2011, the amount of our consolidated retained earnings that represents our undistributed earnings of operating equity method investments is $11.8 million.

Non-Operating Equity Method Investments
Our non-operating equity method investments consist of: (1) 50% ownership of KEYTRADE AG (Keytrade), a fertilizer trading company headquartered near Zurich, Switzerland and (2) a 50% ownership in GrowHow UK Limited (GrowHow), which operates nitrogen production facilities in the United Kingdom. We account for these investments as non-operating equity method investments, and do not include the net earnings of these investments in earnings from operations since these operations do not provide additional capacity to us, nor are these operations integrated within our supply chain. GrowHow is a joint venture between us and Yara International ASA.

In conjunction with our investment in Keytrade, we provided financing to Keytrade in the form of subordinated notes that mature on September 30, 2017 and bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.00 percent. At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the amount of the outstanding advances to Keytrade on our consolidated balance sheets was $12.4 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, we recognized interest income on advances to Keytrade of $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The carrying value of our advances to Keytrade approximates fair value.
Excluding the advances to Keytrade, the carrying value of our non-operating equity method investments at March 31, 2011 was $534.7 million, which was $366.9 million more than our share of the affiliates' book value. The excess is attributable to the impact of our acquisition of Terra and reflects primarily the revaluation of fixed assets, identifiable intangibles and goodwill. The increased basis for fixed assets and identifiable intangibles are being depreciated over periods ranging from 3 to 15 years. Our equity in earnings of non-operating affiliates-net of taxes is different than our ownership interest in their net earnings due to the amortization of basis differences.

18. Asset Retirement Obligations
Asset retirement obligations (AROs) are legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development or normal operation of such assets. Our AROs are primarily associated with phosphogypsum stack systems and mine reclamation in Florida.
The changes in our AROs from December 31, 2010 to March 31, 2011 are summarized below:

Our phosphate operations in Florida are subject to regulations governing the construction, operation, closure and long-term maintenance of phosphogypsum stack systems and regulations concerning site reclamation for phosphate rock mines. Our liability for phosphogypsum stack costs includes the cost of stack closure at Plant City and the costs of cooling pond closure, post-closure monitoring, and ongoing water treatment at both Bartow and Plant City. The actual amounts to be spent will depend on factors such as the timing of activities, refinements in scope, technological developments, cost inflation and changes in regulations. It is possible that these factors could change at any time and impact the estimates. In addition to reclamation AROs arising from normal mining activity, AROs may increase in the future upon expansion of the Plant City phosphogypsum stack.
AROs are reported in accrued expenses and other noncurrent liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets, as follows:

Florida regulations require phosphate fertilizer companies to demonstrate financial assurance for the closure of phosphogypsum stack systems, for mine reclamation activities, and for wetland and other surface water mitigation measures. In the first quarter of 2010, we made an annual contribution of $3.7 million to an escrow account established for the benefit of the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) as a means of complying with Florida's regulations governing financial assurance related to the closure and maintenance of phosphogypsum stack systems. No contribution was necessary in the first quarter of 2011. At March 31, 2011, the balance in this escrow account was $13.2 million.
In the third quarter of 2010, we entered into a Consent Decree with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the FDEP (the Plant City Consent Decree) with respect to our Plant
25
CF INDUSTRIES HOLDINGS, INC.
City, Florida phosphate fertilizer complex and its compliance with the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). In addition to requirements to modify certain operating practices and undertake certain capital improvement projects, the Plant City Consent Decree requires the Company to provide financial assurance with respect to its ability to fund the closure, long-term maintenance, and monitoring costs for the Plant City phosphogypsum stack, as well as any costs incurred to manage the water contained in the stack system upon closure. In the fourth quarter of 2010, we established a trust for the benefit of the EPA and the FDEP and we deposited approximately $54.8 million into the trust. We also transferred approximately $26.9 million from our existing escrow account described above, resulting in a total balance in the trust at March 31, 2011 of $81.8 million. We must fund the remainder of the closure and long term care costs in 2011 and 2012, resulting in contributions currently estimated at $54.7 million in each of the fourth quarters of 2011 and 2012. Additional funding may be required in the future if increases in cost estimates exceed investment earnings in the trust.
Prior to the Plant City Consent Decree, the Company's financial assurance requirements for the closure, long-term maintenance, and monitoring costs for the Plant City phosphogypsum stack system were determined solely by Florida regulations which would have required funding of the escrow account over a period of years. The Plant City Consent Decree described above effectively requires the Company to fund the greater of the requirements under the Plant City Consent Decree or Florida law, which may vary over time. We are still required under Florida law to maintain the existing Florida escrow account for the closure, long-term maintenance, and monitoring costs for the phosphogypsum stack system at our Bartow phosphate complex.

Credit Agreement
On April 5, 2010, the Company, as a guarantor, and CF Industries, as borrower, entered into a $2.3 billion senior Credit Agreement, with certain lenders, including Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. (MSSF), and MSSF as agent for such lenders and as collateral agent (the Credit Agreement), which provided for multiple-draw term loans (Term Loans) of up to $2.0 billion (collectively, the Term Facility) through the date of the Merger (see Note 4Terra Acquisition) and a revolving credit facility of up to $500 million (the Revolving Credit Facility). All loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a variable rate based on an applicable margin over LIBOR or a base rate and must be repaid by April 5, 2015.
26
CF INDUSTRIES HOLDINGS, INC.
Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries (subject to certain limitations). At March 31, 2011, there was $483.3 million of available credit under the Revolving Credit Facility (net of outstanding letters of credit), and there were no borrowings outstanding.
CF Industries borrowed approximately $1.9 billion in the form of Term Loans to finance, in part, the acquisition of Terra, including the Exchange Offer and the Merger; to refinance certain existing indebtedness of Terra and its subsidiaries; and to pay fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing. In the second quarter of 2010, we repaid approximately $864.2 million of the Term Loan borrowings with proceeds from the issuance of the CF Industries senior notes described in this Note 19 under "Senior Notes due 2018 and 2020." In 2010, we also repaid an aggregate of $650 million of the Term Loan borrowings, and in the first quarter of 2011, we repaid the remaining balance of the Term Loan both with cash from operations. At March 31, 2011, there was no outstanding balance remaining on the Term Loan.
The Credit Agreement requires that the Company maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum leverage ratio and includes other customary terms and conditions, including negative covenants and events of default.
The obligations of CF Industries under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company and certain direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company (collectively, the Guarantors). The obligations of CF Industries and the Guarantors under the Credit Agreement are secured by senior liens on substantially all of the assets of CF Industries and the Guarantors, subject to certain exceptions.
Senior Notes due 2018 and 2020
On April 23, 2010, CF Industries issued $800 million aggregate principal amount of 6.875% senior notes due 2018 (the 2018 Notes) and $800 million aggregate principal amount of 7.125% senior notes due 2020 (the 2020 Notes and, together with the 2018 Notes, the Notes), which are guaranteed by the Company and certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company other than CF Industries.
The 2018 Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.875% per annum, payable semiannually on May 1 and November 1, mature on May 1, 2018 and are redeemable at CF Industries' option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a specified make-whole redemption price.
The 2020 Notes bear interest at a rate of 7.125% per annum, payable semiannually on May 1 and November 1, mature on May 1, 2020 and are redeemable at CF Industries' option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a specified make-whole redemption price.
The indentures governing the Notes contain customary events of default and covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries, including CF Industries, to incur liens on certain properties to secure debt and that require CF Industries, in the event of specified changes of control involving the Company or CF Industries, to offer to repurchase the Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
27
At March 31, 2011, the carrying value of the 2018 Notes and 2020 Notes was $1.6 billion and the fair value was approximately $1.810 billion.
Terra Industries Senior Notes
In February 2007, Terra issued $330 million of 7% Senior Notes due 2017 (2017 Notes). In October 2009, Terra repurchased approximately $317.5 million aggregate principal amount of the 2017 Notes in a tender offer and consent solicitation, and as a result, substantially all of the restrictive covenants in the indenture governing the 2017 Notes were eliminated. At March 31, 2011, the carrying value of the 2017 Notes that remain outstanding was $13.0 million and the fair value was approximately $12.8 million.
Notes Payable
From time to time, CFL receives advances from CF Industries and from CFL's noncontrolling interest holder to finance major capital expenditures. The advances outstanding are evidenced by unsecured promissory notes due December 31, 2011 and bear interest at market rates. The amount shown as notes payable represents the advances payable to CFL's noncontrolling interest holder. The carrying value of notes payable approximates their fair value.
20. Derivative Financial Instruments
We use natural gas in the manufacture of nitrogen fertilizer products. We manage the risk of changes in gas prices through the use of physical gas supply contracts and derivative financial instruments covering periods of generally less than 18 months. We use natural gas derivative instruments primarily to lock in a substantial portion of our margin on sales under the Forward Pricing Program. Our natural gas acquisition policy also allows us to establish derivative positions that are associated with anticipated natural gas requirements unrelated to our Forward Pricing Program.
The derivative instruments that we currently use are natural gas swap contracts. These contracts settle using primarily NYMEX futures price indexes, which represent fair value at any given time. The contracts are entered into with respect to gas to be consumed in the future and settlements are scheduled to coincide with anticipated gas purchases used to manufacture nitrogen products during those future periods.
We report derivatives in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value with changes in their fair value recognized immediately in earnings, unless the normal purchase and sale exemption applies. We use natural gas derivatives primarily as an economic hedge of gas price risk, but without the application of hedge accounting. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of the derivatives are recorded in cost of sales as the changes occur. Cash flows related to natural gas derivatives are reported as operating activities.

As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had open derivative contracts for 30.6 million MMBtus and 51.8 million MMBtus, respectively, of natural gas. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we used derivatives to cover approximately 75.0% of our natural gas consumption.
Natural gas derivatives involve the risk of dealing with counterparties and their ability to meet the terms of the contracts. The counterparties to our natural gas derivatives are either large oil and gas companies or large financial institutions. Cash collateral is deposited with or received from counterparties when predetermined unrealized gain or loss thresholds are exceeded. At March 31, 2011, we had no cash collateral on deposit with counterparties for derivative contracts. At December 31, 2010, we had cash collateral of $2.6 million on deposit with derivative counterparties.
As of March 31, 2011, we had no derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features in a net liability position. As of December 31, 2010, the aggregate fair value of the derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features in a net liability position was $0.7 million for which we had no cash collateral on deposit with these counterparties.
For derivatives that are in net asset positions, we are exposed to credit loss from nonperformance by the counterparties. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, our exposure to credit loss from nonperformance by counterparties to derivative instruments totaled $3.8 million and $6.4 million, respectively. We control our credit risk through the use of multiple counterparties, individual credit limits, monitoring procedures, cash collateral requirements and master netting arrangements.
The master netting arrangements with respect to our derivative instruments also contain credit-risk-related contingent features that require us to maintain a minimum net worth level and certain financial ratios. If we fail to meet these minimum requirements, the counterparties to derivative instruments that are in net liability positions could require daily cash settlement of unrealized losses or some other form of credit support.

We grant stock-based compensation awards under the CF Industries Holdings, Inc. 2009 Equity and Incentive Plan (Plan). The awards granted to date are nonqualified stock options and restricted stock. The cost of employee services received in exchange for the awards is measured based on the fair value of the award on the grant date and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the period during which the employee is required to provide the services.

An excess tax benefit is generated when the realized tax benefit from the vesting of restricted stock, or a stock option exercise, exceeds the previously recognized deferred tax asset. Excess tax benefits are required to be reported as a financing cash inflow rather than as a reduction of taxes paid. Excess tax benefits for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $6.0 million.

23. Contingencies
Litigation
From time to time, we are subject to ordinary, routine legal proceedings related to the usual conduct of our business, including proceedings regarding public utility and transportation rates, environmental matters, taxes and permits relating to the operations of our various plants and facilities. Based on the information available as of the date of this filing, we believe that the ultimate outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Florida Environmental Matters
Clean Air Act Investigation.
On March 19, 2007, the Company received a letter from the EPA under Section 114 of the Federal Clean Air Act requesting information and copies of records relating to compliance with New Source Review, New Source Performance Standards, and National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants at the Plant City facility. The Company provided the requested information to the EPA in late 2007. The EPA initiated this same process in relation to numerous other sulfuric acid plants and phosphoric acid plants throughout the nation, including other facilities in Florida.
The Company received a Notice of Violation (NOV) from the EPA by letter dated June 16, 2010. The NOV alleges the Company violated the Prevention of Significant Deterioration (PSD) Clean Air Act regulations relating to certain projects undertaken at the Plant City facility's sulfuric acid plants. This NOV further alleges that the actions that are the basis for the alleged PSD violations also resulted in violations of Title V air operating permit regulations. Finally, the NOV alleges that the Company failed to comply with certain compliance dates established by hazardous air pollutant regulations for phosphoric acid manufacturing plants and phosphate fertilizer production plants. The Company has had an initial meeting with the EPA to discuss these alleged violations. The Company does not know at this time if it will settle this matter prior to initiation of formal legal action.
We cannot estimate the potential penalties, fines or other expenditures, if any, that may result from the Clean Air Act NOV and, therefore, we cannot determine if the ultimate outcome of this matter will have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
EPCRA/CERCLA Investigation.
Pursuant to a letter from the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) dated July 28, 2008 that was sent to representatives of the major U.S. phosphoric acid manufacturers, including CF Industries, the DOJ stated that it and the EPA believe that apparent violations of Section 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA), which requires annual reports to be submitted with respect to the use of certain toxic chemicals, have occurred at all of the phosphoric acid facilities operated by these manufacturers. The letter also states that the DOJ and the EPA believe that most of these facilities have violated Section 304 of EPCRA and Section 103 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) by failing to provide required notifications relating to the release of hydrogen fluoride from these facilities. The letter did not specifically identify alleged violations at our Plant City, Florida complex or assert a claim for a specific amount of penalties. The EPA submitted an information request to the Company on February 11, 2009, as a follow-up to the July 2008 letter. The Company provided information in response to the agency's inquiry on May 14 and May 29, 2009.
By letter dated July 6, 2010, the EPA issued a NOV to the Company alleging violations of EPCRA and CERCLA. The Company has had an initial meeting with the EPA to discuss these alleged violations. The Company does not know at this time if it will settle this matter prior to initiation of formal legal action.
We do not expect that penalties or fines, if any, that may arise out of the EPCRA/CERCLA matter will have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Challenge to Federal Numeric Nutrient Criteria Regulation
On August 18, 2009, the EPA entered into a consent decree with environmental groups with respect to the promulgation of numeric criteria for nitrogen and phosphorous in surface waters in Florida. The consent decree was approved by a federal district court judge on November 16, 2009. The EPA adopted final numeric nutrient criteria for lakes and inland flowing waters on November 14, 2010, which criteria will become effective March 6, 2012. The EPA intends to propose numeric nutrient criteria for coastal and estuarine waters in 2011 and finalize such criteria in 2012. The final numeric water quality criteria for lakes and inland flowing waters are substantially lower than water quality criteria that have been developed and applied in Florida on a case-by-case basis. CF Industries, along with the State of Florida, local wastewater utilities, other industrial entities (including other fertilizer manufacturers) and environmental groups, have filed suit in Federal district court in Florida challenging the regulation.
If the EPA's numeric nutrient criteria regulation is upheld, we could be subject to more stringent waste water discharge limits for our mining, manufacturing and distribution operations in Florida. The specific limits imposed on wastewater discharges from our facilities will depend not only on the adopted criteria but also specific permit conditions to be developed that are consistent with these criteria. More stringent limits could increase our costs and/or limit our operations and, therefore, could have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Louisiana Environmental Matters
Clean Air ActSection 185 Fee.
Our Donaldsonville Nitrogen Complex is located in a five-parish region near Baton Rouge, Louisiana that, as of 2005, was designated as being in "severe" nonattainment with respect to the national ambient air quality standard (NAAQS) for ozone (the 1-hour ozone standard) pursuant to the Federal Clean Air Act (the Act). Section 185 of the Act requires states, in their state implementation plans, to levy a fee (Section 185 fee) on major stationary sources (such as the Donaldsonville facility) located in a severe nonattainment area that did not meet the 1-hour ozone standard by November 30, 2005. The fee was to be assessed for each calendar year (beginning in 2006) until the area achieved compliance with the ozone NAAQS.
Prior to the imposition of Section 185 fees, the EPA adopted a new ozone standard (the 8-hour ozone standard) and rescinded the 1-hour ozone standard. The Baton Rouge area was designated as a "moderate" nonattainment area with respect to the 8-hour ozone standard. However, because Section 185 fees had never been assessed prior to the rescission of the 1-hour ozone standard (rescinded prior to the November 30, 2005 ozone attainment deadline), the EPA concluded in a 2004 rulemaking implementing the 8-hour ozone standard that the Act did not require states to assess Section 185 fees. As a result, Section 185 fees were not assessed against CF Industries and other companies located in the Baton Rouge area.
In 2006, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected the EPA's position and held that Section 185 fees were controls that must be maintained and fees should have been assessed under the Act. In January 2008, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to accept the case for review, making the appellate court's decision final.
The EPA has not yet proposed new regulations to address the Section 185 fee issue and there remains uncertainty as to the implementation of this provision, including the timing of any assessments; whether the EPA will authorize states to adopt plans to implement Section 185 by means other than the assessment of a fee; and whether major sources located in areas that would have achieved
33
CF INDUSTRIES HOLDINGS, INC.
compliance with the 8-hour ozone standard, but continued to be in non-compliance with the 1-hour ozone standard, will continue to be subject to the Section 185 fee. Regardless of the approach adopted by the EPA, we expect that it is likely to be challenged by the environmental community, the states, and/or affected industries. Therefore, the costs associated with compliance with the Act cannot be determined at this time, and we cannot reasonably estimate the impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Clean Air Act Information Request.
On February 26, 2009, the Company received a letter from the EPA under Section 114 of the Federal Clean Air Act requesting information and copies of records relating to compliance with New Source Review and New Source Performance Standards at the Donaldsonville facility. The Company has completed the submittal of all requested information. It is not known at this time whether the EPA will initiate enforcement with respect to the Donaldsonville facility.
Terra Environmental Matters
Nitric Acid Consent Decree
In August 2007, a request for information was received from the EPA pursuant to Section 114 of the Clean Air Act with respect to the nitric acid plant at Port Neal, Iowa. Subsequently, a proposal was made to the EPA to resolve a number of potential Clean Air Act violations associated with prior modifications at Terra's other nitric acid plants. Negotiations with the EPA have been ongoing since May 2008, and an agreement was reached to resolve this matter. On February 11, 2011, we executed a consent decree that will require the Company to achieve compliance with significantly lower nitrogen oxide emission standards. Compliance with these emission limits will require new or upgraded selective catalytic reduction systems and continuous emission monitors which have an estimated capital cost of approximately $15.0 million. The consent decree was lodged with the court on April 19, 2011 and is expected to be executed by representatives of the U.S. Department of Justice, the EPA, and the state governments in which each of the nitric acid plants are located. It is expected to become effective in May 2011 following the required thirty-day public comment period and entry of the consent decree by the court.
Other
CERCLA/Remediation Matters.
From time to time, we receive notices from governmental agencies or third parties alleging that we are a potentially responsible party at certain cleanup sites under CERCLA or other environmental cleanup laws. In 2002 and in 2009, we were asked by the current owner of a former phosphate mine and processing facility that we are alleged to have operated in the late 1950s and early 1960s located in Georgetown Canyon, Idaho, to contribute to a remediation of this property. We declined to participate in the cleanup. It is our understanding that the current owner signed a Consent Judgment with the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (IDEQ) for cleanup of the processing portion of the site and has submitted a Draft Remedial Action Plan that is under review by the IDEQ and related agencies. The current owner may bring a lawsuit against us seeking contribution to the cleanup costs, although we do not have sufficient information to determine whether or when such a lawsuit may be brought. We are not able to estimate at this time our potential liability, if any, with respect to the remediation of this property. Based on currently available information, we do not expect that any remedial or financial obligations we may be subject to involving this or other sites will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

24. Segment Disclosures
We are organized and managed based on two segments, which are differentiated primarily by their products, the markets they serve and the regulatory environments in which they operate. The two segments are the nitrogen segment and the phosphate segment. The Company's management uses gross margin to evaluate segment performance and allocate resources. Total other operating costs and expenses (consisting of selling, general and administrative expenses, restructuring and integration costs and other operating-net) and non-operating expenses (interest and income taxes), are centrally managed and are not included in the measurement of segment profitability reviewed by management.

At December 31, 2010, our condensed, consolidating balance sheet contained in our annual report on Form 10-K included an intercompany receivable totaling $1,409.4 million in the Guarantor Subsidiaries column incorrectly reported in the current asset line "Deferred income taxes" that should have been reported in the noncurrent asset line "Due from affiliates." Offsetting incorrect amounts were reported in the Eliminations column. There was no impact on total assets reported in the Guarantor Subsidiaries column and no impact on any assets reported in the Consolidated column, as the account is eliminated in consolidation. We have corrected the error, which we deem to be immaterial, in the condensed, consolidating balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 shown above.
