Jeff Holzman
Vice President of Investor Relations

Good afternoon. My name is Jeff Holzman, Nutrien's Senior Vice President, Investor Relations and Financial Planning and Analysis. Before the start of today's meeting, we would like to outline the agenda and various procedures and guidelines. In terms of agenda, our Chair, Russ Girling, will call the meeting to order and address various preliminary matters. The items of business to be voted on will then be moved to be followed by formal discussion and a brief general shareholder question-and-answer session. Registered shareholders and proxy holders of record are now able to submit comments or questions via the Messaging platform on your screen, and the electronic ballot for voting is also now available on your screen.

You are encouraged to submit any comments or questions and complete your ballot in advance of the Q&A session. Voting will then close, and the Chair will report the voting results. During the formal discussion and Q&A portion of the meeting, comments or questions will be read aloud before being addressed. And the name of the submitting shareholder or proxy holder may be disclosed. Comments or questions that are redundant or that have inappropriate language or otherwise unduly disruptive to the orderly conduct of the meeting will not be addressed, and questions that are not part of the formal discussion of the meeting's items of business may not be addressed.

If, during the course of the meeting, we encounter any technical difficulties with the webcast, please remain logged on, and we will resume as soon as possible. Finally, I would like to remind everyone that today's meeting may include forward-looking statements. These statements are given as of today's date and involve risks
