Our business is subject to risks related to weather conditions. Our risk measurement and hedging activities might not prevent losses. We are substantially dependent on our manufacturing facilities, and any operational disruption could result in a reduction of sales volumes and could cause us to incur substantial expenditures. We may incur costs or liabilities under environmental laws or regulations to which we are subject. We may be required to install additional pollution control equipment at certain facilities in order to maintain compliance with applicable environmental requirements. Government regulation and agricultural policy may reduce the demand for our products. We are subject to risks associated with possible climate change legislation, regulation and international accords. We are subject to risks associated with international operations. Our business may be adversely impacted by our leverage, which may require the use of a substantial portion of excess cash flow to service debt and may limit our access to additional capital. We may be unable to refinance our debt upon a change of control. If the global economic downturn continues or worsens, our business could be adversely impacted. We are exposed to risks associated with our joint venture investments. Disruption in or increased costs of transportation services could have an adverse effect on our profitability. We and Yara may not satisfy certain closing conditions necessary to consummate the Yara Merger.
