We are offering to exchange, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this prospectus and the accompanying letter of transmittal, (i)
$1,350,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our new 6.625% Senior Notes due 2023 offered hereunder (the "2023 dollar exchange notes"), for all of our

$750,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our new 7.000% Senior Notes due 2025 offered hereunder (the "2025 dollar exchange notes," and together with the

The terms of the exchange notes are identical to the terms of the outstanding notes except that the exchange notes have been registered under the Securities

principal amount in excess of? $75 million.
The principal features of the exchange offers are as follows:

equal principal amount of exchange notes that are freely tradable, with holders of initial outstanding notes receiving initial exchange notes and
holders of additional outstanding notes receiving additional exchange notes.
?
·
You may withdraw tendered outstanding notes at any time prior to the expiration of the exchange offers.
?
·
The exchange offers expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on May 13, 2016, unless extended.
?
·
The exchange of outstanding notes for exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offers will not constitute a taxable exchange for U.S. federal
income tax purposes.
?
·
We will not receive any proceeds from the exchange offers.
?
·
We intend to apply to the Irish Stock Exchange for the euro exchange notes to be admitted to the Official List of the Irish Stock Exchange and
traded on the Global Exchange Market. We do not intend to apply for listing of the dollar exchange notes on any securities exchange or automated
quotation system.
?
All untendered outstanding notes will continue to be subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth in the outstanding notes and in the indenture
governing the notes and the supplemental indentures thereto, which we refer to collectively as the "indenture." In general, the outstanding notes may not be
offered or sold, unless registered under the Securities Act, except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the Securities Act and
applicable state securities laws. Other than in connection with the exchange offers, we do not currently anticipate that we will register the outstanding notes
under the Securities Act.
?
You should consider carefully the risk factors beginning on page 13 of this prospectus before participating in the exchange offers.
Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account pursuant to the exchange offers must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in
connection with any resale of such exchange notes. The letter of transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer
will not be deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from
time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of exchange notes received in exchange for outstanding notes where such outstanding
notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. We have agreed that, for a period of 90 days after
the expiration date (as defined herein), we will make this prospectus available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. See "Plan of
Distribution."
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed
upon the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
The date of this prospectus is April 13, 2016.

·
Significant litigation and environmental matters, including indemnifications we were required to assume;

Failure to appropriately manage process safety and product stewardship issues;

contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in the notes. You should read the entire
prospectus carefully, including the matters discussed under the captions "Risk Factors" and "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and the financial statements included
elsewhere in this prospectus. Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this prospectus to "The
Chemours Company," "The Chemours Company, LLC," "Chemours," "we," "us," "our" and "our company"
refer to The Chemours Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. References in this prospectus to "DuPont"

Our Company
Chemours, a leading global provider of performance chemicals, began operating as an independent public
company on July 1, 2015 (the "Distribution Date") after separating from DuPont. We have three reporting
segments: Titanium Technologies, Fluoroproducts and Chemical Solutions. Our products are key inputs into end-
products and processes in a variety of industries. Our Titanium Technologies segment is the leading global
producer of titanium dioxide ("TiO "), a premium white pigment used to deliver whiteness, brightness, opacity and
2
protection in a variety of applications. Our Fluoroproducts segment is a leading global provider of fluoroproducts,
such as refrigerants and industrial fluoropolymer resins. Our Chemical Solutions segment is the leading North
American provider of industrial and specialty chemicals used in gold production, oil refining, agriculture, industrial
polymers and other industries. We operate 35 production facilities located in 11 countries and serve more than
5,000 customers across a wide range of end markets in more than 130 countries. For more information, see
"Business."
Separation and Distribution
General
On October 24, 2013, DuPont announced its intention to separate (the "separation") its Performance
Chemicals segment, which included its Titanium Technologies, Fluoroproducts and Chemical Solutions businesses,
from the other businesses of DuPont, which comprised its Agriculture, Electronics & Communications, Industrial
Biosciences, Nutrition & Health, Performance Materials and Safety & Protection segments (the "DuPont
Businesses"). The distribution qualified as a tax free transaction for United States federal income tax purposes,
subject to certain conditions (see "Risk Factors--Risk Related to Separation").
In furtherance of this plan, on July 1, 2015, DuPont distributed all of the issued and outstanding shares of
Chemours common stock to DuPont stockholders, as of June 23, 2015, the record date for the distribution (the
"distribution"). As a result of the distribution, Chemours became an independent, publicly traded company effective
July 1, 2015. We refer to the separation and distribution transactions together as the "separation and distribution."
Chemours' Post-Separation Relationship with DuPont
Chemours entered into a Separation Agreement with DuPont (the "Separation Agreement") effective on July 1,
2015, which contains the principles governing the internal reorganization of DuPont and Chemours. In connection
with the separation and distribution, Chemours entered into various other agreements to effect the separation and
distribution and provide a framework for its relationship with DuPont after the separation and distribution. These
other agreements included a Transition Services Agreement (the "Transition Services Agreement"), a Tax Matters
Agreement (the "Tax Matters Agreement"), an Employee Matters Agreement (the "Employee Matters
Agreement"), an Intellectual Property Cross-License Agreement (the "Intellectual Property Cross-License
Agreement") and certain manufacturing and supply arrangements. These agreements provide for the allocation
between Chemours and DuPont of DuPont's and Chemours' assets, employees, liabilities and obligations (including
investments, property and employee benefits and tax-related assets and liabilities) attributable to periods
1
TABLE OF CONTENTS
prior to, at and after Chemours' separation from DuPont, and govern certain relationships between Chemours and
DuPont after the separation and distribution. For additional information regarding the Separation Agreement and
other transaction agreements, see "Risk Factors--Risks Related to the Separation."
Indemnification Obligations to DuPont
In connection with the separation, we were required to assume, and indemnify DuPont for, certain liabilities,
including, among others, certain environmental liabilities and specified litigation liabilities. Most of our
http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1026601/000157104916013850/t1600864_424b3.htm[4/13/2016 9:17:12 AM]


t1600864_424b3 - none - 14.5484547s
indemnification obligations to DuPont are uncapped, and include, among other items, associated defense costs,
settlement amounts and judgments. Payments pursuant to these indemnities may be significant and could negatively
impact our business. Each of these risks could negatively affect our business, financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows. For additional information, see "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations-- Environmental Matters," "Risk Factors--Risks Related to the Business" and
"Index to Consolidated Financial Statements--Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements."

?
Resale:
Based upon interpretations by the Staff of the SEC set forth in
no-action letters issued to unrelated third-parties, we believe
that the exchange notes may be offered for resale, resold or

registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the
Securities Act, unless you:
·
are an "affiliate" of ours within the meaning of Rule 405
under the Securities Act;

are a broker-dealer who purchased the notes directly from
us for resale under Rule 144A, Regulation S or any other
available exemption under the Securities Act;

course of your business;
?
·
have an arrangement with any person to engage in the
distribution of the exchange notes; or
?
·
are prohibited by law or policy of the SEC from
participating in the exchange offers.
?
However, we have not submitted a no-action letter, and there
can be no assurance that the SEC will make a similar
determination with respect to the exchange offers. Furthermore,
in order to participate in the exchange offers, you must make
the representations set forth in the letter of transmittal that we
are sending you with this prospectus.

t1600864_424b3 - none - 14.5484547s
exchange offers in any manner. If the exchange offers are
amended in a manner determined by us to constitute a material
change, we will promptly disclose the amendment by means of
a prospectus supplement that will be distributed to the holders
of outstanding notes. In the event of a material change in the
exchange offers, including the waiver of a material condition,
we will extend the exchange offers so that at least five business
days remain in the exchange offers following notice of the
material change.
Expiration Date:
The exchange offers will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City
time, on May 13, 2016, unless we decide to extend them. We
do not currently intend to extend the expiration date.
Conditions to the Exchange Offers:
The exchange offers are subject to the conditions described in
"The Exchange Offers--Conditions to the Exchange Offers,"
including if we determine in our reasonable judgment, that:
·
the exchange offers violate applicable law or any
applicable interpretation of the staff of the SEC;
?
·
an action or proceeding shall have been instituted or
threatened in any court or by any governmental agency
which might materially impair our ability to proceed with
the exchange offers or a material adverse development
shall have occurred in any existing action or proceeding
with respect to us; or
?
·
all governmental approvals that we deem necessary for the
consummation of the exchange offers have not been
obtained.
?
Subject to the requirements of applicable law, we reserve the
right, in our sole discretion, to waive any and all conditions of

are accepted for exchange, we will acquire good and
unencumbered title to the tendered outstanding notes, free
and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges and
encumbrances and not subject to any adverse claim; and
·
exchange notes acquired in the exchange offers will be
obtained in the ordinary course of business of the holder,
that the holder has no arrangement or understanding with
any person to participate in a distribution (within the
meaning of the Securities Act) of such exchange notes,
that the holder is not an "affiliate" of us within the
meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act and that if
