Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Amendment to Credit Agreement
On February 19, 2016, The Chemours Company (the “Company”) entered into Amendment No. 2 (the “Amendment”) to its Credit Agreement dated May 12, 2015 (the “Credit Agreement”) among The Chemours Company, the lenders and issuing banks party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent.

The Amendment amends the terms of the financial maintenance covenants in the Credit Agreement by:

•	replacing the Total Net Leverage Ratio covenant with a Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratio covenant;	
		
•	reducing the minimum levels required by the interest expense coverage ratio covenant; and	
		
•	increasing the limits and extending the time period for adding back the benefits of announced cost reduction initiatives in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA that applies to the financial maintenance covenants listed above.	

The Amendment also amends the Credit Agreement by reducing availability under the revolving credit facility from $1.0 billion to $750 million.

The foregoing summary of the Amendment is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of the Amendment that is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Letter Agreement with DuPont
In connection with the Amendment, the Company entered into a Letter Agreement with E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (“DuPont”). The obligations under the Letter Agreement became effective upon the Company’s entry into the Amendment. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, certain cash payment obligations and working capital true-ups contemplated by the Separation Agreement dated June 26, 2015 between the Company and DuPont were extinguished without any liability on the part of the Company or DuPont. In addition, the Letter Agreement provides for DuPont and the Company to finalize in good faith, on customary market terms and conditions, advance purchases by DuPont of specified services and materials under existing agreements with the Company, in an amount equal to approximately $190 million.

The foregoing summary of the Letter Agreement is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of the Letter Agreement that is attached as Exhibit 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Indemnification Agreements
On February 23, 2016, the Company entered into indemnification agreements with its current directors and officers. The indemnification agreements supplement the indemnification provisions applicable under the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

Among the terms and conditions of the indemnification agreements are provisions providing for director and officer indemnitees to be indemnified in the context of certain third-party proceedings and proceedings by or in the right of the Company. The agreements also provide for, under certain circumstances, indemnification against certain expenses to the extent an indemnitee is wholly or partly successful in a proceeding, and to the extent an indemnitee is a witness or otherwise asked to participate in a proceeding to which the indemnitee is not a party. Also, under certain conditions, the indemnification agreements provide for the advancement of certain expenses from the Company to an indemnitee.

The foregoing summary of the indemnification agreements is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of the form of indemnification agreement that is to be attached as an exhibit to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

LETTER AGREEMENT

January 28, 2016

Stacy L. Fox
E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Company
974 Centre Road, CRP730/5125
Wilmington, DE 19805

Dear Stacy,

Reference is made to the Separation Agreement, dated as of June 26, 2015, by and between E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (“ DuPont ”) and the Chemours Company (“ Chemours ”) (the “ MSA ”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the MSA, and Section numbers referred to herein shall be deemed to refer to the corresponding Sections of the MSA.
Each of DuPont and Chemours has been engaged in good faith discussions related to certain terms of the MSA and a process by which Chemours is seeking amendments to its existing borrowing arrangements as summarized on Exhibit A hereto (the “ Facility Amendments ”).
In furtherance of these discussions, and in respect of good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

(1)	Without changing the terms of the MSA, including without limitation the terms of Section 2.13 of the MSA, neither party shall be obligated to pay the other any of the amounts contemplated by Section 2.13. For the avoidance of doubt, and in furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing (a) neither Dupont nor Chemours shall be obligated to pay any amount with respect to the Preliminary Cash Adjustment under Sections 2.13(b)(vi)(A) and 2.13(b)(vii) of the MSA; (b) Chemours shall not be obligated to pay any amount with respect to the Final GCAP Cash-Comparable Items Adjustment Amount under Sections 2.13(c)(v) and 2.13(c)(vi) of the MSA; and (c) neither DuPont nor Chemours shall be obligated to pay any interest on the amounts set forth in the preceding clauses (a) and (b), which would otherwise be contemplated by Section 2.13(d) of the MSA.	

(2)	DuPont and Chemours will promptly finalize in good faith, on customary market terms and conditions, advance purchases by DuPont of specified services and materials under existing agreements with Chemours, in an amount equal to approximately $190 million.	

(3)	The parties agree and acknowledge that the foregoing understandings are contingent upon the entry by Chemours into the Facility Amendments.	

(4)	The parties each hereby represent and warrant that they have all requisite power and authority to enter into this letter agreement and to perform their respective obligations hereunder, including the approval of their respective Boards of Directors.	

		
(5)	The parties agree to keep this letter agreement and the discussions related thereto and any materials received in connection herewith strictly confidential, other than as required to be disclosed under law (it being agreed and acknowledged that Chemours intends to, following its entering into definitive agreements with its lenders to effectuate the Facility Amendments, disclose this letter agreement in compliance with its disclosure obligations under the federal securities laws), and provided that the parties may share this letter agreement with their representatives and counsel, in each case on the condition that such parties agree to keep the terms of this letter agreement confidential, and that Chemours may share with its lenders solely to the extent necessary to facilitate the Facility Amendments. The parties further agree that they will cooperate and consult in advance and in good faith regarding any disclosure required by federal securities laws.	

(6)	Except as expressly set forth in this letter agreement, neither DuPont nor Chemours waives, and each of DuPont and Chemours hereby expressly reserves, all of its rights and remedies, including, without limitation, with respect to the MSA.	
Please sign below to indicate your agreement to the foregoing.
