Prior to changing the useful life of the germplasm assets, the company tested the assets for impairment under ASC 350 - Intangibles, Goodwill and Other, concluding the assets were not impaired. |

Item 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
• | The company reported net sales of $3,956 million, up 16 percent versus the same quarter last year, reflecting a 17 percent increase in volume and a 3 percent increase in local price, partially offset by a 3 percent decline in currency and a 1 percent impact from portfolio. |
• | Cost of goods sold ("COGS") totaled $2,269 million in the first quarter of 2020, up from $2,211 million in the first quarter of 2019, primarily driven by increased volumes. The three months ended March 31, 2019 included $205 million of amortization of inventory step-up. |
• | Restructuring and asset related charges - net were $70 million in the first quarter of 2020, an increase from $61 million in the first quarter 2019. |
• | There were no integration and separation costs in the first quarter of 2020, as compared to $212 million in the first quarter of 2019. |
• | Income from continuing operations after income taxes was $281 million, as compared to a loss of $(184) million in the same quarter last year. |
• | Operating EBITDA was $794 million, up from $518 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, as volume increases from strong early demand in North America and Europe, price increases for new products and ongoing cost-improvement actions more than offset currency headwinds. Refer to page 51 for further discussion of the company's Non-GAAP financial measures. |
• | The company realized cost synergies of approximately $70 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. |
• | The company repurchased $50 million of shares as part of the $1 billion share repurchase program announced in the second quarter of 2019. |
• | The company announced it is suspending its full year 2020 Corporate Outlook in light of the COVID-19 crisis and volatility it is creating in the global markets. Refer to page 60 for further discussion. |

Item 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Item 1. | LEGAL PROCEEDINGS |
• | Current and future COVID-19 outbreaks and resulting illness, travel restrictions and workforce disruptions could impact Corteva's global supply chain, its operations and its routes to market or those of its suppliers, co-manufacturers, or customers/distributors. These disruptions or the company's failure to effectively respond to them could increase product or distribution costs, alter the timing of recognizing manufacturing costs, or impact the delivery of products to customers. |
• | Government or regulatory responses to pandemics could negatively impact the company's business. Mandatory lockdowns or other restrictions on operations in certain countries have temporarily disrupted the company's ability to operate or distribute its products in these markets. Continuation or expansion of these disruptions could materially adversely impact the company's operations and results. |
• | Reductions to the company’s forecasted profitability and continued global economic decline could trigger potential impairment of the carrying value of goodwill or other indefinite and definite-lived intangible assets. |
• | The instability or unavailability of a farm workforce to harvest agricultural products could impact the company's customers’ ability to monetize their crop and potentially impact the collection of the company's customer receivables. |
• | Continued commodity cost volatility is expected and the company's commodity hedging activities may not sufficiently offset this volatility. Depressed commodity prices may increase the insolvency risk of Corteva's customers in the longer-term, along with reducing the demand for Corteva's products. |
• | The company expects to be negatively impacted by foreign currency exchange rates, as a result of a generally stronger U.S. dollar relative to other currencies in the countries in which the company operates, which could adversely affect the company's reported results of operations and financial condition. |
• | Disruptions or uncertainties related to the COVID-19 outbreak for a sustained period of time could result in delays or modifications to the company's strategic plans and productivity initiatives. |
• | Increased volatility and pricing in the capital and commercial paper markets may continue to impact, the company's access to preferred sources of liquidity resulting in higher borrowing costs. The company cannot assure investors that additional liquidity will be readily available or available on favorable terms. |
• | Increased market volatility may bring unprecedented market conditions making it difficult for the company to adequately forecast customer demand. |

(a) | An agreement to enter into a Transaction may be made orally or in writing at the initiation of either Buyer or Seller. On the Purchase Date for the Transaction, the Purchased Securities shall be transferred to Buyer or its agent against the transfer of the Purchase Price to an account of Seller. |
(b) | Upon agreeing to enter into a Transaction hereunder, Buyer or Seller (or both), as shall be agreed, shall promptly deliver to the other party a written confirmation of each Transaction (a “Confirmation”). The Confirmation shall describe the Purchased Securities (including CUSIP number, if any), identify Buyer and Seller and set forth (i) the Purchase Date, (ii) the Purchase Price, (iii) the Repurchase Date, unless the Transaction is to be terminable on demand, (iv) the Pricing Rate or Repurchase Price applicable to the Transaction, and (v) any additional terms or conditions of the Transaction not inconsistent with this Agreement.

4. | Margin Maintenance |
(a) | If at any time the aggregate Market Value of all Purchased Securities subject to all Transactions in which a particular party hereto is acting as Buyer is less than the aggregate Buyer’s Margin Amount for all such Transactions (a “Margin Deficit”), then Buyer may by notice to Seller require Seller in such Transactions, at Seller’s option, to transfer to Buyer cash or additional Securities reasonably acceptable to Buyer (“Additional Purchased Securities”), so that the cash and aggregate Market Value of the Purchased Securities, including any such Additional Purchased Securities, will thereupon equal or exceed such aggregate Buyer’s Margin Amount (decreased by the amount of any Margin Deficit as of such date arising from any Transactions in which such Buyer is acting as Seller). |
(b) | If at any time the aggregate Market Value of all Purchased Securities subject to all Transactions in which a particular party hereto is acting as Seller exceeds the aggregate Seller’s Margin Amount for all such Transactions at such time (a “Margin Excess”), then Seller may by notice to Buyer require Buyer in such Transactions, at Buyer’s option, to transfer cash or Purchased Securities to Seller, so that the aggregate Market Value of the Purchased Securities, after deduction of any such cash or any Purchased Securities so transferred, will thereupon not exceed such aggregate Seller’s Margin Amount (increased by the amount of any Margin Excess as of such date arising from any Transactions in which such Seller is acting as Buyer). |
(c) | If any notice is given by Buyer or Seller under subparagraph (a) or (b) of this Paragraph at or before the Margin Notice Deadline on any business day, the party receiving such notice shall transfer cash or Additional Purchased Securities as provided in such subparagraph no later than the close of business in the relevant market on such day. If any such notice is given after the Margin Notice Deadline, the party receiving such notice shall transfer such cash or Securities no later than the close of business in the relevant market on the next business day following such notice. |
(d) | Any cash transferred pursuant to this Paragraph shall be attributed to such Transactions as shall be agreed upon by Buyer and Seller. |
(e) | Seller and Buyer may agree, with respect to any or all Transactions hereunder, that the respective rights of Buyer or Seller (or both) under subparagraphs (a) and (b) of this Paragraph may be exercised only where a Margin Deficit or Margin Excess, as the case may be, exceeds a specified dollar amount or a specified percentage of the Repurchase Prices for such Transactions (which amount or percentage shall be agreed to by Buyer and Seller prior to entering into any such Transactions). |
(f) | Seller and Buyer may agree, with respect to any or all Transactions hereunder, that the respective rights of Buyer and Seller under subparagraphs (a) and (b) of this Paragraph to require the elimination of a Margin Deficit or a Margin Excess, as the case may be, may be exercised whenever such a Margin Deficit or Margin Excess exists with respect to any single Transaction hereunder (calculated without regard to any other Transaction outstanding under this Agreement). |
5. | Income Payments |
6. | Security Interest |
7. | Payment and Transfer |
8. | Segregation of Purchased Securities |
Required Disclosure for Transactions in Which the Seller Retains Custody of the Purchased Securities Seller is not permitted to substitute other securities for those subject to this Agreement and therefore must keep Buyer’s securities segregated at all times, unless in this Agreement Buyer grants Seller the right to substitute other securities. If Buyer grants the right to substitute, this means that Buyer’s securities will likely be commingled with Seller’s own securities during the trading day. Buyer is advised that, during any trading day that Buyer’s securities are commingled with Seller’s securities, they [will]* [may]** be subject to liens granted by Seller to [its clearing bank]* [third parties]** and may be used by Seller for deliveries on other securities transactions. Whenever the securities are commingled, Seller’s ability to resegregate substitute securities for Buyer will be subject to Seller’s ability to satisfy [the clearing]* [any]** lien or to obtain substitute securities. |
9. | Substitution |
(a) | Seller may, subject to agreement with and acceptance by Buyer, substitute other Securities for any Purchased Securities. Such substitution shall be made by transfer to Buyer of such other Securities and transfer to Seller of such Purchased Securities. After substitution, the substituted Securities shall be deemed to be Purchased Securities. |
(b) | In Transactions in which Seller retains custody of Purchased Securities, the parties expressly agree that Buyer shall be deemed, for purposes of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph, to have agreed to and accepted in this Agreement substitution by Seller of other Securities for Purchased Securities; provided, however, that such other Securities shall have a Market Value at least equal to the Market Value of the Purchased Securities for which they are substituted. |
10. | Representations |
11. | Events of Default |
(a) | The nondefaulting party may, at its option (which option shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency), declare an Event of Default to have occurred hereunder and, upon the exercise or deemed exercise of such option, the Repurchase Date for each Transaction hereunder shall, if it has not already occurred, be deemed immediately to occur (except that, in the event that the Purchase Date for any Transaction has not yet occurred as of the date of such exercise or deemed exercise, such Transaction shall be deemed immediately canceled). The nondefaulting party shall (except upon the occurrence of an Act of Insolvency) give notice to the defaulting party of the exercise of such option as promptly as practicable. |
(b) | In all Transactions in which the defaulting party is acting as Seller, if the nondefaulting party exercises or is deemed to have exercised the option referred to in subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph, (i) the defaulting party’s obligations in such Transactions to repurchase all Purchased Securities, |
(c) | In all Transactions in which the defaulting party is acting as Buyer, upon tender by the nondefaulting party of payment of the aggregate Repurchase Prices for all such Transactions, all right, title and interest in and entitlement to all Purchased Securities subject to such Transactions shall be deemed transferred to the nondefaulting party, and the defaulting party shall deliver all such Purchased Securities to the nondefaulting party. |
(d) | If the nondefaulting party exercises or is deemed to have exercised the option referred to in subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph, the nondefaulting party, without prior notice to the defaulting party, may: |
(i) | as to Transactions in which the defaulting party is acting as Seller, (A) immediately sell, in a recognized market (or otherwise in a commercially reasonable manner) at such price or prices as the nondefaulting party may reasonably deem satisfactory, any or all Purchased Securities subject to such Transactions and apply the proceeds thereof to the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices and any other amounts owing by the defaulting party hereunder or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of selling all or a portion of such Purchased Securities, to give the defaulting party credit for such Purchased Securities in an amount equal to the price therefor on such date, obtained from a generally recognized source or the most recent closing bid quotation from such a source, against the aggregate unpaid Repurchase Prices and any other amounts owing by the defaulting party hereunder; and |
(ii) | as to Transactions in which the defaulting party is acting as Buyer, (A) immediately purchase, in a recognized market (or otherwise in a commercially reasonable manner) at such price or prices as the nondefaulting party may reasonably deem satisfactory, securities (“Replacement Securities”) of the same class and amount as any Purchased Securities that are not delivered by the defaulting party to the nondefaulting party as required hereunder or (B) in its sole discretion elect, in lieu of purchasing Replacement Securities, to be deemed to have purchased Replacement Securities at the price therefor on such date, obtained from a generally recognized source or the most recent closing offer quotation from such a source. |
(e) | As to Transactions in which the defaulting party is acting as Buyer, the defaulting party shall be liable to the nondefaulting party for any excess of the price paid (or deemed paid) by the nondefaulting party for Replacement Securities over the Repurchase Price for the Purchased Securities replaced thereby and for any amounts payable by the defaulting party under Paragraph 5 hereof or otherwise hereunder. |
(f) | For purposes of this Paragraph 11, the Repurchase Price for each Transaction hereunder in respect of which the defaulting party is acting as Buyer shall not increase above the amount of such Repurchase Price for such Transaction determined as of the date of the exercise or deemed exercise by the nondefaulting party of the option referred to in sub-paragraph (a) of this Paragraph. |
(g) | The defaulting party shall be liable to the nondefaulting party for (i) the amount of all reasonable legal or other expenses incurred by the nondefaulting party in connection with or as a result of an |
(h) | To the extent permitted by applicable law, the defaulting party shall be liable to the non-defaulting party for interest on any amounts owing by the defaulting party hereunder, from the date the defaulting party becomes liable for such amounts hereunder until such amounts are (i) paid in full by the defaulting party or (ii) satisfied in full by the exercise of the nondefaulting party’s rights hereunder. Interest on any sum payable by the defaulting party to the nondefaulting party under this Paragraph 11(h) shall be at a rate equal to the greater of the Pricing Rate for the relevant Transaction or the Prime Rate. |
(i) | The nondefaulting party shall have, in addition to its rights hereunder, any rights otherwise available to it under any other agreement or applicable law. |

13. | Notices and Other Communications |
14. | Entire Agreement; Severability |
15. | Non-assignability; Termination |
(a) | The rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement and under any Transaction shall not be assigned by either party without the prior written consent of the other party, and any such assignment without the prior written consent of the other party shall be null and void. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement and any Transactions shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

16. | Governing Law |
17. | No Waivers, Etc. |
18. | Use of Employee Plan Assets |
(a) | Subject to the last sentence of subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph, any such Transaction shall proceed only if Seller furnishes or has furnished to Buyer its most recent available audited statement of its financial condition and its most recent subsequent unaudited statement of its financial condition. |
(b) | By entering into a Transaction pursuant to this Paragraph, Seller shall be deemed (i) to represent to Buyer that since the date of Seller’s latest such financial statements, there has been no material adverse change in Seller’s financial condition which Seller has not dis-closed to Buyer, and (ii) to agree to provide Buyer with future audited and unaudited statements of its financial condition as they are issued, so long as it is a Seller in any out-standing Transaction involving a Plan Party. |
19. | Intent |
(a) | The parties recognize that each Transaction is a “repurchase agreement” as that term is defined in Section 101 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (except insofar as the type of Securities subject to such Transaction or the term of such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable), and a “securities contract” as that term is defined in Section 741 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (except insofar as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable). |
(b) | It is understood that either party’s right to liquidate Securities delivered to it in connection with Transactions hereunder or to exercise any other remedies pursuant to Paragraph 11 hereof is a contractual right to liquidate such Transaction as described in Sections 555 and 559 of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended. |
(c) | The parties agree and acknowledge that if a party hereto is an “insured depository institution,” as such term is defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended (“FDIA”), then each Transaction hereunder is a “qualified financial contract,” as that term is defined in FDIA and any rules, orders or policy statements thereunder (except insofar as the type of assets subject to such Transaction would render such definition inapplicable). |
(d) | It is understood that this Agreement constitutes a “netting contract” as defined in and subject to Title IV of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991 (“FDICIA”) and each payment entitlement and payment obligation under any Transaction hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement” or “covered contractual payment obligation”, respectively, as defined in and subject to FDI-CIA (except insofar as one or both of the parties is not a “financial institution” as that term is defined in FDICIA). |
20. | Disclosure Relating to Certain Federal Protections |
(a) | in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a broker or dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“1934 Act”), the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken the position that the provisions of the Securities Investor Protection Act of 1970 (“SIPA”) do not protect the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder. |
(b) | in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a government securities broker or a government securities dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the 1934 Act, SPA will not provide protection to the other party with respect to any Transaction hereunder; and |
(c) | in the case of Transactions in which one of the parties is a financial institution, funds held by the financial institution pursuant to a Transaction hereunder are not a deposit and therefore are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, as applicable. |

Type of Options | Non-qualified stock options (“Options”) |
Exercise Price | $XX.XX |
Expiration Date | The Options will expire on [the day prior to the 10th anniversary of the Date of Grant] (“Expiration Date”), unless the Options expire or otherwise terminate at an earlier date pursuant to this Agreement. |

One-third (1/3) of the Options (rounded to a whole number of shares) will vest and become exercisable on [2nd anniversary of Date of Grant]. The remaining Options will vest and become exercisable on [3rd anniversary of Date of Grant]. |
Under 55/10 Rule | If you terminate employment after attainment of age 55 with at least 10 years of service and you are an active employee for six months following the Date of Grant, any unvested Options as of the date of termination will continue to vest in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set forth above for one year after the date of your termination of employment and all other remaining unvested Options will be forfeited. Vested Options will be exercisable through the date that is one year after the date of your termination of employment, or, if earlier, the Expiration Date.

For purposes of this Agreement, transfer of employment among the Company and any of its Affiliates is not a termination of employment. |
Restricted Conduct | If you engage in any of the conduct described in subparagraphs (i) through (iv) below for any reason, in addition to all other remedies in law and/or equity available to the Company: (1) you shall forfeit all Options (whether or not vested) and shall immediately pay to the Company, with respect to previously exercised Options, an amount equal to (x) the per share Fair Market Value of the Common Stock on the date on which the Common Stock was issued with respect to the applicable previously exercised Options times (y) the number of Shares underlying such previously exercised Options, without regard to any Tax-Related Items (as defined below) that may have been deducted from such amount; (2) the Company shall be entitled to monetary damages incurred as a result of such conduct; (3) the Company shall be entitled to injunctions, both preliminary and permanent, enjoining or restraining such conduct; and (4) the Company shall be entitled to all reasonable sums and costs, including attorneys’ fees, incurred to defend or enforce the provisions of this Agreement. |

Exercise Methods | There are four exercise methods from which to choose. Due to local legal requirements, not all methods are available in all countries. |
Withholding | You acknowledge that the Company or, if different, your employer (the “Employer”) (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to the Plan and legally applicable to you (“Tax-Related Items”) in connection with any aspect of the Options, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or exercise of the Options, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends; and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Options to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if you are subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. |
Non-transferability | You may not transfer these Options, except by will or laws of descent and distribution. The Options are exercisable during your lifetime only by you or your guardian or legal representative. |
Severability | The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless be binding and enforceable. |
Waiver | You acknowledge that a waiver by the Company or breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by you or any other participant. |
Privacy | In relation to this Agreement, the Company may collect, use, transfer and share your personal information, such as your name, contact information and banking information. The Company may share personal information with its Affiliates and selected third parties outside of your country of residence, including the United States, which may have data protection rules that are different from those of your country, to perform this Agreement and for purposes consistent with our privacy statement: https://www.corteva.com/privacy.html. |
Imposition of Other | The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on your |
Requirements | participation in this Agreement, on the Options and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require you to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. |
Introduction | You have been granted performance-based Restricted Stock Units (“Units”) under the Corteva, Inc. 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“Plan”), subject to the following Award Terms. This grant is also subject to the terms of the Plan, which is hereby incorporated by reference. However, to the extent that an Award Term conflicts with the Plan, the Plan shall govern. Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the Plan shall have the same defined meanings in these Award Terms, including any appendices to these Award Terms (hereinafter, collectively referred to as the “Agreement”). A copy of the Plan, and other Plan-related materials, such as the Plan prospectus, are available at: www.benefits.ml.com |
Acceptance | You must expressly accept the terms and conditions of your Award as set forth in this Agreement. To accept, log on to Merrill Lynch Benefits OnLine at www.benefits.ml.com, select Equity Plan > Grant Information > Pending Acceptance. If you do not accept your Units in the manner instructed by the Company, your Units will be subject to cancellation. |
Dividend Equivalents | Dividends payable on the Shares represented by your Units (including whole and fractional Units) will be allocated to your account in the form of Units based upon the closing Share price on the date of the dividend payment. Such Units will be subject to the vesting terms set forth below and all other terms set forth in the Agreement. Dividend equivalent units will be determined after the end of the applicable performance period (“Performance Period”) and credited to your account at that time based on the performance-adjusted number of Units in your account. Dividend equivalent units will be calculated by taking the final performance-adjusted Units and calculating the dividend equivalent units for the first dividend payment date for the Performance Period. The resulting number of dividend equivalent units from the first dividend payment date will be added to the final performance-adjusted number of Units before calculating the dividend equivalent units for the second dividend payment date during the Performance Period. This process will be repeated for each subsequent dividend payment date during the Performance Period. |
Performance Period | January [Year of Grant] - December [Year of Grant Plus Two Years] |
Vesting Terms | You may not sell, gift, or otherwise transfer or dispose of any of the Units. |
Performance Metrics | The total number of Units subject to the Award that will be eligible to vest will be based upon the attainment level of the performance goals related to the Company’s (a) Return on Invested Capital (“ROIC”) (as defined below) and (b) Operating Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) Growth (as defined below), in each case, during the Performance Period. The performance attainment level and percent of target payout will be determined independently for each metric, and the two metrics will be weighted differently in determining the final total number of Units that are eligible to vest (the “Final Award”). The ROIC performance goal is weighted at 50% and the Operating EPS Growth performance goal is weighted at 50%. |

• | Based on the table above, the Company’s average Operating EPS Growth during the Performance Period is translated into a percentage payout (of the target) for 50% of the Units subject to the Award. |
Adjustment | The Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, may make appropriate and equitable adjustments to the performance goal measurement or the method applied to calculate such measurement or determine the underlying performance metric, in the event of or in connection with, among other items: (i) tax adjustments, (ii) a merger or acquisition or any similar event affecting the Shares or other securities of the Company, (iii) debt incurred relative to pension funding (whether required or driven by de-risking strategies), (iv) the impact of any new accounting standards, and (v) items associated with discontinued operations. |
Payment | Within 70 days following the last day of the Performance Period, vested Units (including dividend equivalents accruing after the end of the Performance Period and prior to the payment date), if any, will be paid to you or your estate, as applicable, in one Share for each whole Unit and a cash payment for any fraction of a Unit. The value of each fractional Unit will be based on the average of the high and low sale prices of Shares as reported on the Composite Tape of the New York Stock Exchange as of the effective date of payment. |
the Code | The Units are intended to be exempt from or compliant with Section 409A of the Code and the U.S. Treasury Regulations relating thereto so as not to subject you to the payment of additional taxes and interest under Section 409A of the Code or other adverse tax consequences. In furtherance of this intent, the provisions of this Agreement will be interpreted, operated, and administered in a manner consistent with these intentions. The Committee may modify the terms of this Agreement, the Plan or both, without your consent, in the manner that the Committee may determine to be necessary or advisable in order to comply with Section 409A of the Code or to mitigate any additional tax, interest and/or penalties or other adverse tax consequences that may apply under Section 409A of the Code if compliance is not practical. This section does not create an obligation on the part of the Company to modify the terms of this Agreement or the Plan and does not guarantee that the Units or the delivery of Shares upon vesting/settlement of the Units will not be subject to taxes, interest and penalties or any other adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Code. In no event whatsoever shall the Company be liable to any party for any additional tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on you by Section 409A of the Code or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A of the Code. |
Under 55/10 Rule, Due to Disability or Death, Divestiture to Entity Less Than 50% Owned by the Company, or Involuntary Termination Giving Rise to Severance Benefits | If you are an active employee for six months following the Date of Grant and terminate employment (i) after attainment of age 55 with at least 10 years of service; or due to (ii) disability; (iii) death; (iv) liquidation, dissolution or divestiture to an entity less than 50% owned by the Company; or (v) an involuntary termination by the Company or, if different, your employer (the “Employer”) which gives rise to the payment of severance benefits under a plan maintained by the Company, the Units will remain subject to the Vesting Terms and will be paid in accordance with the Payment terms above. However, the number of Units will be prorated based on the number of months you were employed from the Date of Grant through the end of the Performance Period. | |
Due to Any Other Reason (including for Cause; Voluntary Termination; or Involuntary Termination Without Severance Benefits) | Units will be forfeited as of the date on which you terminate employment. |
Restricted Conduct | If you engage in any of the conduct described in subparagraphs (i) through (v) below for any reason, in addition to all remedies in law and/or equity available to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, you shall forfeit all Units. For purposes of subparagraphs (i) through (v) below, “Company” shall mean Corteva, Inc. and/or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates. |
Applicable Policies | This Award shall be subject to the Company’s clawback policy; the Corteva, Inc. Insider Trading Policy, including the anti-hedging and anti-pledging provisions thereunder; and/or share ownership guidelines, if any, (in each case as they may be amended from time to time), the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference. |
Forfeiture | Any benefits you may receive hereunder shall be subject to repayment or forfeiture as may be required to comply with the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or any applicable law, including the requirements of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or any securities exchange on which the Shares are traded, as may be in effect from time to time. |
Withholding | You acknowledge that the Company and/or the Employer (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to the Plan and legally applicable to you (“Tax-Related Items”) in connection with any aspect of the Units, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Units, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any dividends and/or any dividend equivalent units; and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Units to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if you are subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. |
Severability | The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless be binding and enforceable. |
Waiver | You acknowledge that a waiver by the Company or breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by you or any other participant. |
Privacy | In relation to this Agreement, the Company may collect, use, transfer and share your personal information, such as your name, contact information and banking information. The Company may share personal information with its Affiliates and selected third parties outside of your country of residence, including the United States, which may have data protection rules that are different from those of your country, to perform this Agreement and for purposes consistent with our privacy statement: https://www.corteva.com/privacy.html. |
Market Abuse Laws | You may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws based on the exchange on which the Shares are listed and in applicable jurisdictions including the United States and your country or your broker's country, if different, which may affect your ability to accept, acquire, sell or otherwise dispose of Shares, rights to Shares (e.g., Units) or rights linked to the value of Shares under the Plan during such times as you are considered to have "inside information" regarding the Company (as defined by Applicable Laws). Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders you placed before you possessed inside information. Furthermore, you could be prohibited from (a) disclosing the inside information to any third party and (b) "tipping" third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities. Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under the Corteva, Inc Insider Trading Policy. You acknowledge that it is your responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions, and you should speak to your personal advisor on this matter. |
Other Requirements | The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on your participation in this Agreement, on the Units and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require you to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. |
of Award | You have been granted time-vested Restricted Stock Units under the Corteva, Inc. 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan (“Plan”), subject to the following Award Terms. This grant is also subject to the terms of the Plan, which is hereby incorporated by reference. However, to the extent that an Award Term conflicts with the Plan, the Plan shall govern. Unless otherwise defined herein, the terms defined in the Plan shall have the same defined meanings in these Award Terms, including any appendices to these Award Terms (hereinafter, collectively referred to as the “Agreement”). A copy of the Plan, and other Plan-related materials, such as the Plan prospectus, are available at: www.benefits.ml.com |
Acceptance | You must expressly accept the terms and conditions of your Award as set forth in this Agreement. To accept, log on to Merrill Lynch Benefits OnLine at www.benefits.ml.com, select Equity Plan > Grant Information > Pending Acceptance. |
Dividend Equivalents | Dividends payable on the Shares represented by your Restricted Stock Units (including whole and fractional Restricted Stock Units) will be allocated to your account in the form of additional Restricted Stock Units based upon the closing Share price on the date of the dividend payment. Dividend Equivalents will not vest until such time as the underlying Award vests. |
Restricted Period | You may not sell, gift, or otherwise transfer or dispose of any of the Restricted Stock Units during the “Restricted Period.” The Restricted Period commences on the Date of Grant and lapses as set forth herein. |
Under 55/10 Rule | If you terminate employment after attainment of age 55 with at least 10 years of service and you are an active employee for six months following the Date of Grant, the Restricted Stock Units will remain subject to the Restricted Period set forth above for one year from the termination date of employment. When one year from the termination date of employment is reached, all other remaining unvested units will be forfeited. | |
Due to Disability, or Death | The Restricted Period on all units will lapse. | |
Due to Involuntary Termination Giving Rise to Severance Benefits or Divestiture to Entity Less Than 50% Owned by Corteva, Inc. | The Restricted Stock Units will remain subject to the Restricted Period set forth above for one year from the termination date of employment. When one year from the termination date of employment is reached, all other remaining unvested units will be forfeited. | |
Due to Any Other Reason (such as voluntary termination, involuntary termination without severance benefits, or for Cause) | Restricted Stock Units that are subject to a Restricted Period will be forfeited. |
Payment | In the case of termination due to involuntary termination giving rise to severance benefits or divestiture to an entity less than 50% owned by Corteva, Inc. which occurs on or following the attainment of age 55 with at least 10 years of Service, Restricted Stock Units shall be paid to you when the Restricted Period lapses in accordance with the schedule set forth under “Restricted Period.” In the case of termination due to involuntary termination giving rise to severance benefits or divestiture to an entity less than 50% owned by Corteva, Inc. which occurs prior to attainment of age 55 with at least 10 years of Service or due to Disability or death, Restricted Stock Units shall be paid to you or your estate, as applicable, within seventy days of the date on which the Restricted Period lapses as a result of the termination. Restricted Stock Units are payable in one Share for each whole Restricted Stock Unit and a cash payment for any fraction of a Restricted Stock Unit. The value of each fractional Restricted Stock Unit will be based on the average of the high and low sale price of Shares as reported on the effective date of payment. |
of the Code | To the extent that an amount that is considered “nonqualified deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code (“deferred compensation”) is payable on, or by reference to, the date of your termination of employment, no amounts shall be paid hereunder on account thereof unless such termination of employment constitutes a “separation from service,” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. If you are a “specified employee,” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, no amount that is deferred compensation shall be paid or delivered, on , or by reference to, the date of your separation from service, earlier than the date that is six months after such separation from service. Amounts otherwise payable during that six-month period shall be paid on the date that is six months and one day after your separation from service. If an amount that constitutes deferred compensation is payable upon a Disability that does not constitute a "disability" within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, it shall be paid to you when the Restricted Period lapses in accordance with the schedule set forth under “Restricted Period.” |
Restricted Conduct | If you engage in any of the conduct described in subparagraphs (i) through (v) below for any reason, in addition to all remedies in law and/or equity available to the Company: (1) you shall forfeit all Restricted Stock Units (whether or not vested) and shall immediately pay to the Company, with respect to previously vested Restricted Stock Units, a cash amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Stock plus the cash payment for any fraction of a Restricted Stock Unit received, without regard to any Tax-Related Items (as defined below) that may have been deducted from such amount; (2) the Company shall be entitled to monetary damages incurred as a result of such conduct; (3) the Company shall be entitled to injunctions, both preliminary and permanent, enjoining or restraining such conduct; and (4) the Company shall be entitled to all reasonable sums and costs, including attorneys’ fees, incurred to defend or enforce the provisions of this Agreement. |
Applicable Policies | This Award shall be subject to the Company’s clawback policy; Corteva, Inc. Insider Trading Policy, including the anti-hedging and anti-pledging provisions thereunder; and/or share ownership guidelines (in each case as they may be amended from time to time), the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference. |
Forfeiture | Any benefits you may receive hereunder shall be subject to repayment or forfeiture as may be required to comply with the requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or any applicable law, including the requirements of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or any securities exchange on which the Shares are traded, as may be in effect from time to time. |
Withholding | You acknowledge that the Company or, if different, your employer (the “Employer”) (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to the Plan and legally applicable to you (“Tax-Related Items”) in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any dividends and/or any dividend equivalents; and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if you are subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. |
Severability | The provisions of this Agreement are severable and if any one or more provisions are determined to be illegal or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, the remaining provisions shall nevertheless be binding and enforceable. |
Waiver | You acknowledge that a waiver by the Company or breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any other provision of this Agreement, or of any subsequent breach by you or any other participant. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block] | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES Guarantees Indemnifications In connection with acquisitions and divestitures as of March 31, 2020, the company has indemnified respective parties against certain liabilities that may arise in connection with these transactions and business activities prior to the completion of the transactions. The term of these indemnifications, which typically pertain to environmental, tax and product liabilities, is generally indefinite. In addition, the company indemnifies its duly elected or appointed directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, against liabilities incurred as a result of their activities for the company, such as adverse judgments relating to litigation matters. If the indemnified party were to incur a liability or have a liability increase as a result of a successful claim, pursuant to the terms of the indemnification, the company would be required to reimburse the indemnified party. The maximum amount of potential future payments is generally unlimited. See pages 26 and 11 for additional information relating to the indemnification obligations under the Chemours Separation Agreement and the Corteva Separation Agreement. Obligations for Customers and Other Third Parties The company has directly guaranteed various debt obligations under agreements with third parties related to customers and other third parties. At March 31, 2020, December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2019, the company had directly guaranteed $90 million, $97 million, and $294 million, respectively, of such obligations. These amounts represent the maximum potential amount of future (undiscounted) payments that the company could be required to make under the guarantees in the event of default by the guaranteed party. Of the total maximum future payments at March 31, 2020, less than $1 million had terms greater than a year. The maximum future payments also include $17 million, $16 million, and $12 million of guarantees related to the various factoring agreements that the company enters into with its customer to sell its trade receivables at March 31, 2020, December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2019, respectively. See Note 10 - Accounts and Notes Receivable, Net, for additional information. The maximum future payments include agreements with lenders to establish programs that provide financing for select customers. The terms of the guarantees are equivalent to the terms of the customer loans that are primarily made to finance customer invoices. The total accounts receivable balance outstanding on these agreements was $125 million, $27 million and $63 million at March 31, 2020, December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2019, respectively. The company assesses the payment/performance risk by assigning default rates based on the duration of the guarantees. These default rates are assigned based on the external credit rating of the counterparty or through internal credit analysis and historical default history for counterparties that do not have published credit ratings. For counterparties without an external rating or available credit history, a cumulative average default rate is used. Litigation The company is subject to various legal proceedings, including, but not limited to, product liability, intellectual property, antitrust, commercial, property damage, personal injury, environmental and regulatory matters arising out of the normal course of its current businesses or legacy EID businesses unrelated to Corteva’s current businesses but allocated to Corteva as part of the separation of Corteva from DuPont. It is not possible to predict the outcome of these various proceedings. Although considerable uncertainty exists, management does not anticipate that the ultimate disposition of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the company's results of operations, consolidated financial position or liquidity. However, the ultimate liabilities could be material to results of operations and the cash flows in the period recognized. Indemnifications under Separation Agreements The company has entered into various agreements where the company is indemnified for certain liabilities. In connection with the recognition of liabilities related to these matters, the company records an indemnification asset when recovery is deemed probable. See Note 3 - Divestitures and Other Transactions, for additional information related to indemnifications. Chemours/Performance Chemicals On July 1, 2015, EID completed the separation of its Performance Chemicals segment through the spin-off of all of the issued and outstanding stock of The Chemours Company (the "Chemours Separation"). In connection with the Chemours Separation, EID and The Chemours Company ("Chemours") entered into a Separation Agreement (the "Chemours Separation Agreement"). Pursuant to the Chemours Separation Agreement and the amendment to the Chemours Separation Agreement, Chemours indemnifies the company against certain litigation, environmental, workers' compensation and other liabilities that arose prior to the distribution. The term of this indemnification is generally indefinite and includes defense costs and expenses, as well as monetary and non-monetary settlements and judgments. Concurrent with the MDL Settlement (as discussed below), EID and Chemours amended the Chemours Separation Agreement to provide for a limited sharing of potential future PFOA liabilities for five years, which began on July 6, 2017. During the five years, Chemours will annually pay the first $25 million of future PFOA liabilities and, if that amount is exceeded, EID will pay any excess amount up to the next $25 million, with Chemours annually bearing any excess liabilities above that amount. At the end of the five years, this limited sharing agreement will expire, and Chemours’ indemnification obligations under the Chemours Separation Agreement will continue unchanged. As part of this amendment, Chemours also agreed that it would not contest its liability for PFOA liabilities on the basis of certain ostensible defenses it had previously raised, including defenses relating to punitive damages, and would waive any such defenses with respect to PFOA liabilities. Chemours has, however, retained defenses as to whether any particular PFOA claim is within the scope of the indemnification provisions of the Chemours Separation Agreement. There have been no charges incurred by the company under this amendment through March 31, 2020. On May 13, 2019, Chemours filed a complaint in the Delaware Court of Chancery ("Chancery Court") against DuPont, Corteva, and EID alleging, among other things, that the litigation and environmental liabilities allocated to Chemours under the Chemours Separation Agreement were underestimated and asking that the Court either limit the amount of Chemours’ indemnification obligations or, alternatively, order the return of the $3.91 billion dividend Chemours paid to EID prior to its separation. On June 3, 2019, the defendants moved to dismiss the complaint on the grounds that the Chemours Separation Agreement requires arbitration of all disputes relating to that agreement. On March 30, 2020, the Chancery Court granted the motion to dismiss made by DuPont, Corteva, and EID. Chemours filed its notice of appeal of the Chancery Court's decision on April 17, 2020. The company believes the probability of liability with respect to Chemours' suit continues to be remote. For additional information regarding environmental indemnification, see discussion on page 29. At March 31, 2020, the indemnification assets pursuant to the Chemours Separation Agreement are $60 million within accounts and notes receivable - net and $294 million within other assets along with the corresponding liabilities of $60 million within accrued and other current liabilities and $294 million within other noncurrent obligations in the interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Corteva Separation Agreement On April 1, 2019, in connection with the Dow Distribution, Corteva, DuPont and Dow entered into the Corteva Separation Agreement, the Tax Matters Agreement, the Employee Matters Agreement, and certain other agreements (collectively, the “Corteva Separation Agreements”). The Corteva Separation Agreements allocate among Corteva, DuPont and Dow certain liabilities and obligations among the parties and provides for indemnification obligation among the parties. Under the Corteva Separation Agreements, DuPont will indemnify Corteva against certain litigation, environmental, workers' compensation and other liabilities that arose prior to the Corteva Distribution and (ii) Dow indemnifies Corteva against certain litigation and other liabilities that relate to the Historical Dow business, but were transferred over as part of DAS, and Corteva indemnifies DuPont and Dow for certain liabilities. The term of this indemnification is generally indefinite with exceptions, and includes defense costs and expenses, as well as monetary and non-monetary settlements and judgments. See Note 3 - Divestitures and Other Transactions, for additional information relating to the Separation DuPont Under the Corteva Separation Agreement, certain legacy EID liabilities from discontinued and/or divested operations and businesses of EID (including Performance Chemicals) (a “stray liability”) were allocated to Corteva or DuPont. For those stray liabilities allocated to Corteva (which may include a specified amount of liability associated with that liability), Corteva is responsible for liabilities in an amount up to that specified amount plus an additional $200 million and, for those stray liabilities allocated to DuPont (which may include a specified amount of liability associated with that liability), DuPont is responsible for liabilities up to a specified amount plus an additional $200 million. Once each company has met the $200 million threshold, Corteva and DuPont will share future liabilities proportionally on the basis of 29% and 71%, respectively; provided, however, that for PFAS, DuPont will manage such liabilities with Corteva and DuPont sharing the costs on a 50% - 50% basis starting from $1 and up to $300 million (with such amount, up to $150 million, to be credited to each company’s $200 million threshold) and once the $300 million threshold is met, then the companies will share proportionally on the basis of 29% and 71% respectively, subject to a $1 million de minimis requirement. Litigation related to legacy EID businesses unrelated to Corteva’s current businesses While it is reasonably possible that the company could incur liabilities related to the litigation related to legacy EID businesses, unrelated to Corteva's current business, as described below, any such liabilities are not expected to be material. PFAS, PFOA, PFOS and Other Related Liabilities For purposes of this report, the term PFOA means collectively perfluorooctanoic acid and its salts, including the ammonium salt and does not distinguish between the two forms, and PFAS, which means per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, including PFOA, PFOS (perfluorooctanesulfonic acid), GenX and other perfluorinated chemicals and compounds ("PFCs"). EID is a party to various legal proceedings relating to the use of PFOA by its former Performance Chemicals segment. While it is reasonably possible that EID could incur liabilities related to PFOA in excess of amounts accrued, any such liabilities are not expected to be material. As discussed, EID is indemnified by Chemours under the Chemours Separation Agreement, as amended. The company has recorded a liability of $20 million and an indemnification asset of $20 million at March 31, 2020, related to testing drinking water in and around certain former EID sites and offering treatment or an alternative supply of drinking water if tests indicate the presence of PFOA in drinking water at or greater than the national health advisory level established from time to time by the EPA. Leach Settlement and MDL Settlement EID has residual liabilities under its 2004 settlement of a West Virginia state court class action, Leach v. EID, which alleged that PFOA from EID’s former Washington Works facility had contaminated area drinking water supplies and affected the health of area residents. The settlement class has about 80,000 members. In addition to relief that was provided to class members years ago, the settlement requires EID to continue providing PFOA water treatment to six area water districts and private well users and to fund, through an escrow account, up to $235 million for a medical monitoring program for eligible class members. As of March 31, 2020, approximately $2 million had been disbursed from the account since its establishment in 2012 and the remaining balance is approximately $1 million. The Leach settlement permits class members to pursue personal injury claims for six health conditions (and no others) that an expert panel appointed under the settlement reported in 2012 had a “probable link” (as defined in the settlement) with PFOA: pregnancy-induced hypertension, including preeclampsia; kidney cancer; testicular cancer; thyroid disease; ulcerative colitis; and diagnosed high cholesterol. After the panel reported its findings, approximately 3,550 personal injury lawsuits were filed in federal and state courts in Ohio and West Virginia and consolidated in multi-district litigation in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Ohio (“MDL”). The MDL was settled in early 2017 for $670.7 million in cash, with Chemours and EID (without indemnification from Chemours) each paying half. Post-MDL Settlement PFOA Personal Injury Claims The MDL settlement did not resolve claims of plaintiffs who did not have claims in the MDL or whose claims are based on diseases first diagnosed after February 11, 2017. At March 31, 2020, approximately 60 lawsuits were pending alleging personal injury, mostly kidney or testicular cancer, from exposure to PFOA through air or water, with nearly all part of the MDL or were not filed on behalf of Leach class members. The first two trials concluded in February 2020. The first trial, a kidney cancer case, resulted in a hung jury, while the second, a testicular cancer case, resulted in a jury verdict of $40 million in compensatory damages and $10 million for loss of consortium. Following entry of the judgment by the court, EID intends to file post-trial motions to reduce the verdict, and to appeal the verdict on the basis of procedural and substantive legal errors made by the trial court. EID believes the merits of the appeal will be successful in reducing the jury verdict or eliminating its liability, in whole or part. Six additional cases are scheduled for trial in August 2020. Other PFOA Matters EID is a party to other PFOA lawsuits that do not involve claims for personal injury. Chemours, pursuant to the Chemours Separation Agreement, is generally defending and indemnifying, with reservation, EID but Chemours has refused the tender of Corteva, Inc.'s defense in the limited actions in which Corteva, Inc. has been named. Chemours has refused to indemnify Corteva, Inc. and EID against any fraudulent conveyance claims associated with these matters. Corteva believes that Chemours is obligated to indemnify Corteva, Inc. under the Chemours Separation Agreement. New York. EID is a defendant in about 60 lawsuits, including a putative class action, brought by persons who live in and around Hoosick Falls, New York. These lawsuits assert claims for medical monitoring and property damage based on alleged PFOA releases from manufacturing facilities owned and operated by co-defendants in Hoosick Falls and allege that EID and 3M supplied some of the materials used at these facilities. EID is also one of more than ten defendants in a lawsuit brought by the Town of East Hampton, New York alleging PFOA and PFOS contamination of the town’s well water. Additionally, EID was served with complaints filed by six water districts in Nassau County, New York alleging that the drinking water they provide to customers is contaminated with PFAS and seeking reimbursement for clean-up costs. New Jersey. At March 31, 2020, two lawsuits were pending, one brought by a local water utility and the second a putative class action, against EID alleging that PFOA from EID’s former Chambers Works facility contaminated drinking water sources. The putative class action was voluntarily dismissed without prejudice by the plaintiff. In late March of 2019, the New Jersey State Attorney General filed four lawsuits against EID, Chemours, 3M and others alleging that operations at and discharges from former EID sites in New Jersey (Chambers Works, Pompton Lakes, Parlin and Repauno) damaged the State’s natural resources. Two of these lawsuits (those involving the Chambers Works and Parlin sites) allege contamination from PFAS. The Ridgewood Water District in New Jersey filed suit in the first quarter 2019 against EID, 3M, Chemours, and Dyneon alleging losses related to the investigation, remediation and monitoring of polyfluorinated surfactants, including PFOA, in water supplies. Alabama / Others. EID is one of more than thirty defendants in a lawsuit by the Alabama water utility alleging contamination from PFCs, including PFOA, used by co-defendant carpet manufacturers to make their products more stain and grease resistant. In addition, the states of Michigan, New Hampshire, South Dakota, and Vermont recently filed lawsuits against EID, Chemours, 3M and others, claiming, among other things, PFC (including PFOA) contamination of groundwater and drinking water. The complaints seek reimbursement for past and future costs to investigate and remediate the alleged contamination and compensation for the loss of value and use of the state’s natural resources. Ohio. EID is a defendant in three lawsuits: an action by the State of Ohio based on alleged damage to natural resources, a putative nationwide class action brought on behalf of anyone who has detectable levels of PFAS in their blood serum, and an action by the City of Dayton claiming losses related to the investigation, remediation and monitoring of PFAS in water supplies. Aqueous Firefighting Foams. Approximately 530 cases have been filed against 3M and other defendants, including EID and Chemours, and more recently also including Corteva and DuPont, alleging PFOS or PFOA contamination of soil and groundwater from the use of aqueous firefighting foams. Most of those cases claim some form of property damage and seek to recover the costs of responding to this contamination and damages for the loss of use and enjoyment of property and diminution in value. Most of these cases have been transferred to a multidistrict litigation proceeding in federal district court in South Carolina. Approximately 180 of these personal injury cases were filed on behalf of firefighters who allege personal injuries (primarily, thyroid disease and kidney, testicular and other cancers) as a result of aqueous firefighting foams. Most of these recent cases assert claims that the EID and Chemours separation constituted a fraudulent conveyance. While Chemours is defending EID for all claims except those for fraudulent conveyance, it has declined defense and indemnity to Corteva on all claims. EID did not make firefighting foams, PFOS, or PFOS products. While EID made surfactants and intermediaries that some manufacturers used in making foams, which may have contained PFOA as an unintended byproduct or an impurity, EID’s products were not formulated with PFOA, nor was PFOA an ingredient of these products. EID has never made or sold PFOA as a commercial product. Fayetteville Works Facility, North Carolina Prior to the separation of Chemours, EID introduced GenX as a polymerization processing aid and a replacement for PFOA at the Fayetteville Works facility in Bladen County, North Carolina. The facility is now owned and operated by Chemours, which continues to manufacture and use GenX. In 2017, the facility became and continues to be the subject of inquiries and government investigations relating to the alleged discharge of GenX and certain similar compounds into the air and Cape Fear River. EID was served with subpoenas relating to these discharges and in the second quarter 2018, received a subpoena expanding the scope to any PFCs discharged from the Fayetteville Works facility into the Cape Fear River. It is possible that these ongoing inquiries and investigations could result in penalties or sanctions, or that additional litigation will be instituted against Chemours, EID, or both. EID continues to cooperate with the U.S. Attorney’s Office. At March 31, 2020, several actions are pending in federal court against Chemours and EID relating to PFC discharges from the Fayetteville Works facility. One of these is a consolidated putative class action that asserts claims for medical monitoring and property damage on behalf of putative classes of property owners and residents in areas near or who draw drinking water from the Cape Fear River. Another action is a consolidated action brought by various North Carolina water authorities, including the Cape Fear Public Utility Authority and Brunswick County, that seek actual and punitive damages as well as injunctive relief. The other action is on behalf of about 100 plaintiffs who own wells and property near the Fayetteville Works facility. The plaintiffs seek damages for nuisance allegedly caused by releases of certain PFCs from the site. The plaintiffs’ claims for medical monitoring, punitive damages, public nuisance, trespass, unjust enrichment, failure to warn, and negligent manufacture have all been dismissed. The company has an indemnification claim against Chemours with respect to current and future inquiries and claims, including lawsuits, related to the foregoing. At March 31, 2020, Chemours, with reservations, is defending and indemnifying EID in the pending civil actions. Environmental Accruals for environmental matters are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated based on current law and existing technologies. At March 31, 2020, the company had accrued obligations of $359 million for probable environmental remediation and restoration costs, including $51 million for the remediation of Superfund sites. These obligations are included in accrued and other current liabilities and other noncurrent obligations in the interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. This is management’s best estimate of the costs for remediation and restoration with respect to environmental matters for which the company has accrued liabilities, although it is reasonably possible that the ultimate cost with respect to these particular matters could range up to $630 million above the amount accrued at March 31, 2020. Consequently, it is reasonably possible that environmental remediation and restoration costs in excess of amounts accrued could have a material impact on the company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Inherent uncertainties exist in these estimates primarily due to unknown conditions, changing governmental regulations and legal standards regarding liability, and emerging remediation technologies for handling site remediation and restoration. For a discussion of the allocation of environmental liabilities under the Chemours Separation Agreement and the Corteva Separation Agreement, see the previous discussion on page 26. The above noted $359 million accrued obligations includes the following:
3. Accrual balance represents management’s best estimate of the costs of remediation and restoration, although it is reasonably possible that the potential exposure, as indicated, could range above the amounts accrued, as there are inherent uncertainties in these estimates.
