Exposure changes the overall brightness of the image, making the whole photo lighter or darker.

Fill Light mainly brightens the darker areas to reveal shadow detail while leaving brighter areas mostly unchanged.

Blacks works at the dark end of the tonal range, making dark areas darker and setting the black point.

So in practice:

• Use Exposure for a global brightness adjustment.
• Use Fill Light to open up shadows without strongly affecting highlights.
• Use Blacks to deepen shadows and add contrast in the darkest tones.

A related slider is Recovery, which does the opposite of Fill Light: it tries to recover detail in bright areas while leaving darker regions mostly alone.
