Exhibit 10.1.33

     AMENDMENT
(the “Amendment”), dated as of
[•], to the Restricted
Share Agreement(s) (the “Award Agreement(s)”), between Terra
Industries Inc. (“Terra”) and [NAME].

     WHEREAS Terra wishes to amend each Award Agreement in order to address the requirements of
Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

     Now, therefore, each Award Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

     1. New Provisions. The following provisions shall be deemed to have been added to
each Award Agreement:

     a. Any cash dividend that becomes payable to you in respect of your Restricted Shares shall be
paid to you at the same time such dividend is paid to Terra’s regular shareholders.

     b. If you cease to be actively employed by reason of Total Disability, the Restricted Shares
shall vest immediately. For purposes of each Award Agreement, the term “Total Disability” shall
mean your eligibility for long-term disability coverage under a long-term disability plan of Terra
or one of its subsidiaries.

     c. (i) It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the
Code and the regulations thereunder as in effect from time to time (“Section 409A”), and
all provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in a manner consistent with the
requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Section 409A.

     (ii) Neither you nor any of your creditors or beneficiaries shall have the right to subject
any deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A) payable under this Agreement to any
anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, attachment or
garnishment. Except as permitted under Section 409A, any deferred compensation (within the meaning
of Section 409A) payable to you or for your benefit under this Agreement may not be reduced by, or
offset against, any amount owing by you to Terra or any of its affiliates.

     (iii) If, at the time of your separation from service (within the meaning of Section 409A),
(A) you shall be a specified employee (within the meaning of Section 409A and using the
identification methodology selected by Terra from time to time) and (B) Terra shall make a good
faith determination that an amount payable hereunder constitutes deferred compensation (within the
meaning of Section 409A) the payment of which is required to be delayed pursuant to the six-month
delay rule set forth in Section 409A in order to avoid taxes or penalties under Section 409A, then
Terra shall not pay such amount on the otherwise scheduled payment date but shall instead pay it,
without interest, on the first business day after such six-month period.

     (iv) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, in light of the
uncertainty with respect to the proper application of Section 409A, Terra reserves the right to
make amendments to this Agreement as Terra deems necessary or desirable to avoid the imposition of

 

 

taxes or penalties under Section 409A. In any case, you shall be solely responsible and
liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on you or for your
account in connection with this Agreement (including any taxes and penalties under Section 409A),
and neither Terra nor any of its affiliates shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise
hold you harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties.

     2. Deleted Provision. The following paragraph shall be deemed to have been deleted
in its entirety from each Award Agreement:

     If your employment terminates by reason of Total Disability, the Restricted Shares shall
continue to be eligible for award pursuant to the provisions in this letter.

     3. Effect on Award Agreements. Except as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment
shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of, or otherwise affect
the rights and remedies of the parties to any Award Agreement, and shall not alter, modify, amend
or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained
in any Award Agreement, all of which shall continue in full force and effect. This Amendment shall
apply and be effective only with respect to the provisions of the Award Agreement(s) specifically
referred to herein. After the date hereof, any reference to any such Award Agreement shall mean
such Award Agreement as modified hereby.

     WHEREAS Terra wishes to amend each Award Agreement in order to address the requirements of

Shares that may be issued following the date you cease to be actively employed as a result of Total

Shares become vested. Performance Shares will be deemed to have vested when they are no longer
subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section
1.409A-1(d)). For purposes of the Award Agreements, the term “Total Disability” shall mean your
eligibility for long-term disability coverage under a long-term disability plan of Terra or one of
its subsidiaries.

     b. In the event of a “change of control” on or prior to the last day of the Period, any
Performance Shares required to be issued will be issued not later than 30th day following the

Shares required to be issued will be issued not later than the 74th day following the date of
death.

     d. (i) It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement comply with Section 409A of the

Exhibit 10.1.34

LETTER TO FORMER UK EMPLOYEE WITH

TERRA LONG TERM INCENTIVE AWARD

[Date]

Dear                    :

Re: Amendment to Terra Long Term Incentive Award

     You currently hold one or more long term incentive awards issued by Terra Industries Inc.
(Terra) which, with one exception, by their respective terms remain valid and outstanding awards.
It is Terra’s intent that each such award shall remain valid and outstanding, subject to all the
terms and conditions contained within each such respective award, as modified herein.

     As a consequence of the recent merger of Terra’s UK business, Terra Nitrogen (UK) Limited,
with the UK business of Kemira GrowHow Oyj, to create a new joint venture entity, GrowHow UK
Limited, it is necessary to amend the terms of the Terra long term incentive award(s) as follows:

The terms “employment”, “Terra employment” or “employment of the
corporation or subsidiary” as may be contained in each such long term
incentive award shall be deemed to include for all purposes your
employment with or by GrowHow UK Limited or any subsidiary owned or
controlled by GrowHow UK Limited.

     All other and remaining terms and conditions of each such long term incentive award issued you
by Terra, except as expressly reflected above, shall remain unchanged.

	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 	 	TERRA INDUSTRIES INC.
	 
	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 

	 	BY
