All amounts are in US dollars

Nutrien Ltd. (NYSE, TSX: NTR) ("Nutrien"), Agrium Inc. ("Agrium"), and Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan Inc. ("PotashCorp"), each wholly-owned subsidiaries of Nutrien (together, the "Company"), today announced the redemption of $1.8 billion of debt securities and the commencement of a cash tender offer to purchase (the "Offer") their respective debt securities listed in Table I below (collectively, the "Notes", and each, a "series" of Notes) for an aggregate purchase price of $300 million (excluding accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the Settlement Date (as defined below)) (subject to increase, the "Tender Cap"), at purchase prices determined based on the yield to maturity of the applicable U.S. Treasury reference security specified in Table I below plus the applicable Fixed Spread and subject to the terms and conditions and in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Company's Offer to Purchase (as defined below).

The Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on December 14, 2021, unless extended or earlier terminated by the Company, with respect to any or all series of Notes (such date and time with respect to the Offer, as the same may be extended or earlier terminated, with respect to any or all series, the "Expiration Time"). Holders must validly tender and not properly withdraw their Notes at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 30, 2021, unless extended by the Company, with respect to any or all series of Notes (such date and time with respect to the Offer, as the same may be extended, the "Early Tender Time") in order to be eligible to receive the Full Tender Offer Consideration (as defined below) for the applicable series, which includes an early tender payment of $50 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (the "Early Tender Payment"). Holders that validly tender their Notes after the Early Tender Time and at or prior to the Expiration Time will not be eligible to receive the Early Tender Payment and will only be eligible to receive the Full Tender Offer Consideration minus the Early Tender Payment (the "Late Tender Offer Consideration"). In each case, Holders that validly tender Notes that are accepted for purchase by the Company will receive accrued and unpaid interest from, and including, the last interest payment date for their tendered Notes to, but not including, the Settlement Date for such Notes, in each case rounded to the nearest cent ("Accrued Interest"). Notes validly tendered may be withdrawn at any time on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 30, 2021, with respect to any or all series of Notes (such date and time, as the same may be extended, the "Withdrawal Deadline"), unless extended by the Company, but not thereafter. The Depositary Trust Company and any broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee that holds the Notes may have earlier deadlines for tendering Notes pursuant to the Offer than the Early Tender Time or the Expiration Time.

The terms and conditions of the Offer are described in the offer to purchase for cash, dated November 16, 2021 (the "Offer to Purchase").

Tendered Notes will be accepted in the order of the acceptance priority level for such series (in numerical priority order) as set forth in Table I above, with 1 being the highest acceptance priority level, and based on whether the Notes are tendered at or before the Early Tender Time or after the Early Tender Time, as described in the Offer to Purchase. Notwithstanding the acceptance priority level, if any Notes are purchased in the Offer, Notes tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Time will be accepted for purchase in priority to Notes tendered after the Early Tender Time and at or prior to the Expiration Time. Accordingly, if the Tender Cap is reached in respect of tenders made at or prior to the Early Tender Time, no Notes of any series tendered after the Early Tender Time (regardless of acceptance priority level) will be accepted for purchase, unless the Company increases the Tender Cap. Under certain circumstances, the Company will accept tendered Notes of one or more of the series on a pro rata basis as further described below and in the Offer to Purchase. The Company reserves the right, but is not obligated, to increase the Tender Cap.

The Offer is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions specified in the Offer to Purchase.

Under these conditions and as more fully described in the Offer to Purchase, the Company expressly reserves its right, but is not obligated, with respect to any or all series of Notes, to extend the Offer at any time and may amend or terminate the Offer if, before such time as any Notes have been accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer, any condition of the Offer is not satisfied or, where applicable, waived by the Company.

The "Full Tender Offer Consideration" payable for the Notes will be a price per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes equal to an amount that would reflect, as of the date of purchase, a yield (the "Tender Offer Yield") to the par call date or the maturity date, as applicable of the applicable series of Notes (see footnote 4 to Table I above for further information) equal to the sum of (i) the Reference Yield for the applicable series of Notes, plus (ii) the applicable Fixed Spread as calculated by the joint dealer managers at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the first business day after the date of the Early Tender Time (subject to certain exceptions as set forth in the Offer to Purchase). The Early Tender Payment is included in the amount of Full Tender Offer Consideration. See Schedule A to the Offer to Purchase for the formula to be used in determining the Full Tender Offer Consideration for the Notes. The Company will also pay Accrued Interest.

If the Tender Cap is reached in respect of tenders made at or prior to the Early Tender Time, Notes validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Time will be subject to acceptance on a prorated basis. If the Tender Cap is not reached in respect of tenders made at or prior to the Early Tender Time, but is reached in respect of tenders made at or prior to the Expiration Time, Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Time and at or prior to the Expiration Time will be subject to acceptance on a prorated basis.

The "Settlement Date" with respect to the Offer is the date that the Company settles all Notes accepted for purchase, and the Company expects such date to be two business days following the Expiration Time. Assuming the Offer is not extended and all conditions of the Offer have been satisfied or, where applicable, waived by us, we expect that the Settlement Date for the Offer will be December 16, 2021.
