NOTICE OF CHANGE OF LOCATION
OF ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON APRIL 28, 2020
To Shareholders of The Chemours Company:
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the format of this year’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) has been changed from in-person to virtual-only.
This change was made to comply with the state of emergency orders issued by the Governor of the State of Delaware and recommendations from the World Health Organization and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention with respect to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, and to support the health and well-being of our shareholders.
As previously announced, the Annual Meeting will be held on April 28, 2020 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time. The Annual Meeting will be accessible via live webcast at www.viewproxy.com/chemours/2020/vm. As described in the proxy materials previously distributed for the Annual Meeting, shareholders of record at the close of business on March 2, 2020 are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.
Shareholders will be afforded an opportunity to participate in the Annual Meeting similar to how they have been able to participate at our traditional in-person shareholder meetings. Specific time has been designated for a question and answer session at the end of the Annual Meeting.
To attend the Annual Meeting, you should register on or before April 24, 2020 by visiting www.allianceproxy.com/chemours/2020 and following the registration instructions:
| · | If you hold your shares in your name or have received a proxy card or notice of internet availability, please click "Registration for Registered Holders" and enter your name, phone number, control number (found on your proxy card or notice of internet availability) and email address. |

If you wish to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting, please also upload a copy of the legal proxy that you have obtained from your bank or broker. |
The live, interactive meeting will begin promptly at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time. To be admitted to the Annual Meeting, you must enter your control number and the password contained in your meeting registration confirmation. Participants are encouraged to visit the website in advance to test their systems for compatibility.

Shareholders may vote during the Annual Meeting by following the instructions on the meeting website. However, whether or not you plan to attend the webcast, we urge you to vote and submit your proxy in advance by one of the methods described in the proxy materials for the Annual Meeting. The proxy card included with the proxy materials previously distributed will not be updated to reflect the change in location and may continue to be used to vote your shares in connection with the Annual Meeting. If you have already voted, no additional action is required.
