This Amendment No. 11 to Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (as amended, the “Schedule TO”) amends and supplements the statement originally filed on February 23, 2009, as subsequently amended from time to time, by CF Industries Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CF Holdings”), and Composite Acquisition Corporation, a Maryland corporation (“Composite”). This Schedule TO relates to the third party tender offer by CF Holdings, through Composite, to exchange each of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, without par value, of Terra Industries Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Terra”), for 0.4235 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of CF Holdings (together with the associated preferred stock purchase rights), upon the terms and conditions set forth in (1) the Offer to Exchange (as defined below) and (2) the related Letter of Transmittal (the offer reflected by such terms and conditions, as they may be amended or supplemented from time to time, constitutes the “Offer”).

 

CF Holdings filed on April 14, 2009, Amendment No. 1 to its Registration Statement on Form S-4 (file no. 333-157462) relating to the offer and sale of the CF Holdings common stock to be issued to holders of Terra common stock in the Offer.  The terms and conditions of the Offer are set forth in the prospectus/offer to exchange, which is a part of the Registration Statement (as amended, the “Offer to Exchange”), and the related Letter of Transmittal, which are set forth as Exhibit (a)(4) and Exhibit (a)(1)(A) hereto, respectively.

 

ITEMS 1 THROUGH 11.

 

Items 1 through 11 of the Schedule TO are hereby amended and supplemented as set forth in the Offer to Exchange, which is filed as Exhibit (a)(4) hereto.

 

In addition, the information set forth below regarding CF Holdings and Terra is incorporated by reference into these Items 1 through 11.  The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) allows CF Holdings to incorporate information into this Schedule TO “by reference,” which means that CF Holdings can disclose important information to Terra stockholders by referring to another document or information filed separately with the SEC. The information incorporated by reference is deemed to be part of this Schedule TO, except for any information superseded by information contained in, or incorporated by reference into, this Schedule TO. These incorporated documents contain important information about CF Holdings and Terra and their financial condition.
