WILMINGTON, Del., June 4, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — The Chemours Company (“Chemours“) (NYSE: CC), a global chemistry company with leading market positions in fluoroproducts, chemical solutions and titanium technologies, today announced the early tender results as of 5:00 p.m. New York City time on June 4, 2018 (the “Early Tender Deadline“) of its previously announced tender offer (the “Tender Offer“) to purchase for cash up to $250,000,000 (the “Tender Cap“) of its outstanding 6.625% senior notes due 2023 (the “Notes“).

In connection with the Tender Offer, Chemours also announced the results as of the Early Tender Deadline of its previously announced solicitation of consents (the “Consents“) from holders of the Notes (the “Consent Solicitation“) to the proposed amendments to the indenture, dated as of May 12, 2015 (the “Base Indenture“), as supplemented by the first supplemental indenture, dated as of May 12, 2015 (the “First Supplemental Indenture“), which governs the Notes (the First Supplemental Indenture, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture“), providing for the shortening of the minimum notice periods under the Indenture for the optional redemption of the Notes by Chemours (the “Proposed Amendments“). Concurrently with this press release, Chemours also announced the early tender results of its previously announced tender offer and consent solicitation with respect to any and all of its 6.125% Senior Notes due May 15, 2023.

The terms and conditions of the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation are described in an Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement, dated May 21, 2018 (the “Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement“) and related Letter of Transmittal and Consent (collectively, the “Offer Documents“).

As of the Early Tender Deadline, $520,645,000 aggregate principal amount of Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline (the “Early Tender Notes“) were received by Chemours, representing approximately 44.96% of the total outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Notes. Pursuant to the Offer Documents, because the aggregate principal amount of Early Tender Notes exceeded the Tender Cap, Chemours will accept for purchase the Early Tender Notes on a prorated basis in the portion of approximately 48.29% of the principal amount of the Early Tender Notes (the “Accepted Notes“). Chemours will accept for purchase the aggregate principal amount of Early Tender Notes tendered by a holder multiplied by the proration rate and then rounded down to the nearest $1,000 increment, as described in the Offer Documents.

The aggregate principal amount of Accepted Notes, as well as the percent of the total aggregate principal amount of Notes outstanding constituting Accepted Notes, is set forth in the columns entitled “Aggregate Principal Amount of Accepted Notes” and “Percent of Total Outstanding Principal Amount Accepted,” respectively, in the table below.

The consideration being offered for the Accepted Notes in the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation is also set forth in the table below:

The Early Settlement Date (as defined in the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement) for the Accepted Notes is expected to be on June 6, 2018. Because the Tender Cap was reached as of the Early Tender Deadline, no Notes and Consents that are validly tendered or delivered after the Early Tender Deadline will be accepted for purchase and any Notes and Consents accepted for purchase on the Early Settlement Date will be accepted on a prorated basis up to the amount of the Tender Cap as described above. Any Early Tender Notes tendered pursuant to the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation but not accepted for purchase by Chemours on the Early Settlement Date will be promptly returned to holders.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation, holders of the Accepted Notes will receive the Total Consideration set forth in the table above, which includes the Early Tender Payment set forth in the table above.

In addition, holders of all Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation will receive accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes from the last interest payment date with respect to such Notes to, but not including, the applicable Settlement Date (as defined in the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement).

The Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation will remain open and will expire at Midnight, New York City time, at the end of June 18, 2018, unless extended or earlier terminated by Chemours (the “Expiration Date“). No tenders submitted after the Expiration Date will be valid.

The consummation of the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation are subject to, and conditioned upon, the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions described in the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement, including, among others, Chemours consummating the New Debt Financing (as defined in the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement) on terms satisfactory to it, and having funds available therefrom that will allow it to purchase the Notes pursuant to the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation.

In addition, because Chemours had not received Consents in respect of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding as of the Early Tender Deadline (excluding Notes held by Chemours or its affiliates), Chemours will not execute and deliver a supplemental indenture to the Indenture giving effect to the Proposed Amendments. Any Consents received as of the Early Tender Deadline shall be null and void.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, any security. No offer, solicitation, or sale will be made in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful.

Global Bondholder Services Corporation has been retained to serve as both the depositary and the information agent (the “Depositary and Information Agent“) for the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation.
