Item 8.01. Other Events.
On July 13, 2021 (the “Effective Date”), the State of Delaware (the “State”) and The Chemours Company (“Chemours”), DuPont de Nemours, Inc. (“DuPont”), Corteva Inc. (“Corteva”), and E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (“EID”), a subsidiary of Corteva (collectively, the “Companies”), entered into a Settlement Agreement, Limited Release, Waiver and Covenant Not to Sue (the “Settlement Agreement”) reflecting the Companies’ and the State’s agreement to settle and fully resolve claims alleged against the Companies regarding their more than 200 years of historical Delaware operations, manufacturing, use and disposal of all chemical compounds, including but not limited to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (“PFAS”), of which the State has actual knowledge.
The Companies shall make a payment in the total amount of $50 million to the State (the “Payment”), which shall be utilized to fund the Natural Resources and Sustainability Trust (the “Trust”). The Payment shall be made within the later of fourteen days after the Trust is established and notice is provided by the State, or sixty days of the Effective Date of the Settlement Agreement. The Trust shall be used for environmental restoration and enhancement of resources, sampling and analysis, community environmental justice and equity grants, and other natural resource needs.
If the Companies, individually or jointly, within eight years of the Effective Date, enter into a proportionally similar agreement to settle or resolve claims of another state for PFAS-related natural resource damages, for an amount greater than $50 million, the Companies shall make a supplemental payment directly to the Trust (“Supplemental Payment”) in an amount equal to such other states’ recovery in excess of $50 million. Supplemental Payment(s), if any, will not exceed $25 million in the aggregate.
Chemours will contribute $25 million to the settlement pursuant its January 2021 Memorandum of Understanding with E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, DuPont de Nemours, Inc., and Corteva. The remaining $25 million will be divided between DuPont and Corteva.
The foregoing description of the Settlement Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Settlement Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
On July 13, 2021, Chemours, DuPont, Corteva and the State of Delaware issued a joint press release announcing the matters described in this Current Report on Form 8-K. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
