Ladies and Gentlemen:

I have acted as counsel for DuPont de Nemours, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the public offering of $2,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 2.169% Notes due 2023 (the “Notes”).

In connection with this opinion, I have assumed the genuineness of all signatures on all documents examined by me and the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to me as copies.

Based on the foregoing and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications set forth herein, I am of the opinion that the Notes have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and are legally valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability.

The opinion set forth above is limited to the laws of the State of New York and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

I hereby consent to use of this opinion as an exhibit of the Company’s Current Report on Form8-K being filed on the date hereof and further consent to the reference to my name under the caption “Legal Matters” in the prospectus supplement, which is a part of the Registration Statement.

Very truly yours,
