Note regarding non-GAAP financial measures The company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Management believes that EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA which are non-GAAP financial measures, provide additional meaningful information regarding the company's performance and financial strength. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the company's reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, because not all companies use identical calculations, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA included in this presentation may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are provided in the tables accompanying this presentation. EBITDA is defined as net earnings (loss) attributable to common stockholders plus interest expense - net, income taxes, and depreciation 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 noncontrolling interests. The company has presented EBITDA because management uses the measure to track performance and believes that it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the industry. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted with the selected items included in EBITDA as summarized in the tables accompanying this presentation. The company has presented adjusted EBITDA because management uses adjusted EBITDA, and believes it is useful to investors, as a supplemental financial measure in the comparison of year-over-year performance. 3

CF Investment Thesis Nitrogen demand growing at ~2% per year annually Agricultural demand driven by population growth and increased protein consumption per capita Industrial demand driven by global GDP plus growth in emissions abatement Net new nitrogen capacity growth (new construction minus capacity closures) is below projected demand growth for the foreseeable future ~4 years based on time required to build new capacity, tightening the global supply and demand balance CF is on the low end of the global cost curve due to its access to low-cost and plentiful North American natural gas Global price driven by marginal producers tied to higher-priced LNG, oil-linked natural gas and Chinese anthracite coal North America is dependent on nitrogen imports to meet demand Price is set by the last imported ton bid into the region CFs manufacturing and distribution network, along with its logistics capabilities, allow it to capture the significant margin between CFs cost and that of the global high-cost producer (including logistics to move products into consumption region) 6 Primarily Operate in Import-Dependent Region Advantaged Position on Global Cost Curve Tightening Global Supply and Demand Balance Consistent Demand Growth

CF is well positioned to benefit from continued price recovery Table illustrates the leverage of CFs business model to improving industry conditions EBITDA Sensitivity to Natural Gas and Urea Prices(1)(2) $ billions CF Realized North American Natural Gas Cost ($/MMBtu)(3) Source: CF Industries (1) The table was created by using 2017 adjusted EBITDA of $969 million, 2017 sales volumes of approximately 20 million product tons and gas consumption of approximately 360 million MMBtus. Sales volume and gas consumption were adjusted for CFs anticipated 2018 turnaround schedule and 100% ownership of TNCLP. Changes in product prices and gas costs were not applied to the CHS supply agreement and the contractual Orica and Mosaic volumes as CF Industries is naturally hedged against changes in product prices and gas costs under each agreement. While the table above presents CFs realized North American natural gas cost, CF Fertilisers UKs gas cost and volumes were included in the analysis. As with North America, CF Fertilisers UKs gas cost was sensitized in $0.25/MMBtu increments. See appendix for 2017 EBITDA reconciliation. Assumes CFs 2017 North American basis differential to Henry Hub of ($0.27)/MMBtu Assumes that a $25 per ton change in urea price is equivalent to a $17.39 per ton change in UAN price, $18.47 per ton change in AN price and a $44.57 per ton change in ammonia price.

Donaldsonville DEF storage Global Market Update
Market overview Increased production costs, particularly for producers in Europe and China, have raised and flattened the upper half of the global cost curve, supporting higher prices year-to-date compared to 2017 Natural gas per MMBtu at Dutch TTF hub was 53% higher in June 2018 than June 2017; TTF forward curve suggests continued European price increases into 2019 Price per metric ton of anthracite coal is 29% higher in July 2018 compared to July 2017 Several plants in Ukraine and Central Europe were idled in Q2 due to high energy costs, with additional facilities remaining in operation by using imported ammonia In addition to higher coal prices, enforcement of environmental regulations in China continues to result in closures, dramatically reducing urea available for export; exports were 74% less January through June 2018 than the same period in 2017 CF expects increased Brazilian imports in 2H 2018 due to 25% lower imports in 1H 2018 compared to 1H 2017 and announced closure of Petrobras urea plants in August 2018 CF projects 4.3M metric tons nameplate urea capacity to start-up in 2018, more than offset by 7.1M metric tons nameplate urea capacity closure during the year in China, Brazil, and Kuwait CF expects global supply/demand balance will tighten further, with net global urea supply growth well below historical nitrogen demand annual growth rate of ~2% Forward prices for Brent crude oil and European natural gas are increasing into 2019 while Henry Hub prices stay relatively flat reinforcing the enduring structural advantage of CFs access to North American natural gas 14 Longer-term Outlook Near-term Outlook Global Pricing Dynamics
