It supplements the company’s proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 11, 2024. May 9, 2024 Dear Fellow Shareholders: As the Chair of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of The Chemours Company, I am writing to supplement our proxy statement for our 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (our “2024 Annual Meeting”) by underscoring our longstanding and continued commitment to the diversity of our Board. We are committed to having one or more highly qualified new directors who are ethnically or racially diverse by the time of our 2025 annual meeting. I am also asking for your support by voting in accordance with the Board’s recommendations on all proposals submitted for your consideration at our 2024 Annual Meeting. Specifically, the Board asks that you vote “FOR” the election of all of our director nominees in Proposal 1. Diversity of experience, gender, race, and ethnicity is a key selection criterion for membership on our Board. This principle is fully consistent with our Corporate Responsibility Commitments, which include a 2030 goal of filling 30% of all U.S. positions with ethnically diverse employees, and 35% of all global positions with women. We expect directors to bring to the company a wide range of experience, ideas, knowledge, and judgment, and that our directors will use their individual qualities, skills, and competencies in the exercise of their duties. Directors are selected for their integrity and character; sound, independent judgment; breadth of experience, insight, and business acumen; and significant professional accomplishments. These attributes are core to our values. Mary Cranston, the Chair of our Nominating and Corporate
