This Amendment No. 10 to Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (as amended, the “Schedule TO”) amends and supplements the statement originally filed on March 5, 2010, as subsequently amended from time to time, by CF Industries Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CF Holdings”), and Composite Merger Corporation, a Maryland corporation (“Composite”). This Schedule TO relates to the third party tender offer by Composite to exchange each of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, without par value, of Terra Industries Inc., a Maryland corporation, for $37.15 in cash, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest, and 0.0953 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 “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 March 19, 2010 Amendment No. 1 to its Registration Statement on Form S-4 (file no. 333-165224) 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 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 9 AND 11.
All information contained in the Offer to Exchange and the Letter of Transmittal, and any prospectus supplement or any other supplement thereto related to the Offer, is hereby expressly incorporated herein by reference with respect to Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO, except that such information is amended and supplemented to the extent specifically provided herein.
Items 1 and 4(a) of the Schedule TO are hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:
On April 15, 2010, CF Holdings announced that as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 14, 2010, a total of 92,230,296 shares of Terra common stock, representing approximately 92.1% of the outstanding shares of Terra common stock, had been validly tendered and accepted for payment in the Offer.
On April 15, 2010, CF Holdings also announced that, as Composite owned more than 90% of the outstanding shares of Terra common stock, CF Holdings would complete the acquisition of Terra on April 15, 2010 through the short-form merger procedure under Maryland law, without a vote or meeting of Terra’s stockholders. In the merger, each outstanding share of Terra common stock not tendered and purchased in the Offer will be converted into the right to receive $37.15 in cash and 0.0953 shares of CF Holdings common stock, which is the same amount per share that was offered and paid in the Offer.
ITEM 12. EXHIBITS.
Item 12 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:
(a)(5)(J) CF Holdings press release, dated April 15, 2010 (incorporated by reference to Exhibit 99.1 to CF Holdings Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed on April 15, 2010)

After due inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this Schedule TO is true, complete and correct.
