Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On August 24, 2017, The Chemours Company (“Chemours”) and E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (“DuPont”) entered into an amendment to the Separation Agreement, dated as of July 1, 2015, by and between DuPont and Chemours (the “Separation Agreement”).  The amendment to the Separation Agreement implements certain previously announced agreements between Chemours and DuPont related to (1) DuPont’s settlement of cases and claims in the multi-district litigation in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio (the “MDL”) alleging personal injury from exposure to perfluorooctanoic acid and its salts, including the ammonium salt (“PFOA”), in drinking water as a result of the historical manufacture or use of PFOA at the Washington Works plant outside Parkersburg, West Virginia (the “Settlement”), (2) the sharing of the cost of that settlement and (3) potential future PFOA costs.  In addition, on August 21, 2017, Chemours paid $320.35 million to the plaintiffs in the MDL litigation in satisfaction of its previously announced liability under the Settlement.

 

This summary of the amendment to the Separation Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms and conditions of the amendment, which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
