NEW YORK & WILMINGTON, Del. – August 27, 2020 – IFF (NYSE: IFF) (Euronext Paris: IFF) (TASE: IFF) and DuPont (NYSE: DD) announced that, during a special meeting held earlier today, IFF shareholders voted to approve the issuance of shares of IFF common stock in connection with the previously announced proposed merger of IFF and DuPont’s Nutrition & Biosciences (N&B) business pursuant to a Reverse Morris Trust transaction. Based on the preliminary count of proxies returned prior to its special meeting, and with more than 99 percent of the votes cast in favor, IFF shareholders overwhelmingly approved the issuance of shares pursuant to the merger agreement, through which IFF and N&B will combine to create a global leader in high-value ingredients and solutions for global food, beverage, home and personal care and health and wellness markets. The final voting results will be publicly filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on a Form 8-K within four business days.

“We are pleased to have received the strong support of IFF shareholders, who have recognized this unique opportunity to create a leading ingredients and solutions provider which is better positioned to meet our customers’ evolving needs and unlock long-term value creation,” said IFF Chairman and CEO, Andreas Fibig. “We’ve already made tremendous progress in the integration planning process to develop a purpose, vision and operating structure for our future combined company and today’s milestone brings us that much closer to bringing the combination to life.”

“We appreciate that IFF shareholders are supportive of this transformative opportunity to bring these two iconic businesses together that will redefine the industry for years to come,” said Ed Breen, DuPont Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our integration planning remains on track, and we are confident that the new combined company will be well-positioned for growth and to deliver sustainable value for our shareholders,” added Breen who will join the board of the combined company following the close of the transaction and will serve as Lead Independent Director starting June 1, 2021.

IFF and DuPont continue to target closing the transaction in the first quarter of 2021, subject to regulatory approvals and closing conditions.

These risks, as well as other risks associated with the proposed merger, are more fully discussed in the registration statement and proxy statement filed by IFF and the registration statement filed by N&B. While the list of factors presented here is, and the list of factors presented in registration statements filed by each of IFF and N&B in connection with the transaction, are considered representative, no such list should be considered to be a complete statement of all potential risks and uncertainties.

In connection with the special meeting of IFF shareholders on August 27, 2020, DuPont issued the following employee communications:

Memo from Ed Breen: IFF Shareholder Vote

Dear Colleagues,

I’m pleased to report that earlier today, IFF shareholders voted to approve the issuance of shares of IFF common stock in connection with the previously announced proposed merger of IFF and DuPont’s Nutrition & Biosciences (N&B) business. This vote represents a significant milestone as we take another important step forward in our journey to combine these two iconic businesses. It also continues to keep us on track to close the transaction in the first quarter of 2021.

As I’ve shared before, I believe this transaction is a powerful combination that will create a new industry leader with deep science capabilities across food, beverage, home and personal care, and health and wellness markets. It will open up new opportunities for growth that will bring benefits to our customers and employees and create value for both IFF and DuPont shareholders.

I’m grateful to the people who have worked tirelessly over the past several months, especially during these unprecedented and challenging times. The separation teams have been diligently working through our playbook to separate N&B and, in parallel, the integration teams are laying the ground work by planning for the combination of the two businesses with an inspiring sense of purpose and vision. We have several steps still to go, but we are making great progress, and I’ll continue to keep you updated.

Once again, thank you for your continued focus on our Core Values, your dedication to our customers and your commitment to our company and each other.

Ed Breen

Executive Chairman & CEO

Memo from Matthias Heinzel: IFF Shareholder Vote

Dear N&B Colleagues,

Today we reached a key milestone on the journey toward merging N&B with IFF, as IFF shareholders voted to approve the issuance of IFF shares to DuPont shareholders in connection with the planned merger. You will have already seen a memo from Ed Breen about the importance of the vote. I am also excited that we have reached this significant milestone and continue to be on track to close the transaction in the first quarter of 2021. To be clear, until the closing of the transaction, N&B is, and continues to be, a business of DuPont. Additionally, N&B and IFF remain independent businesses and will continue to operate separately until the intended transaction closes.

You might be asking now what are the key next steps or milestones before transaction close?

While the merger has received antitrust clearance from the United States, China, Colombia and Serbia, and more recently from Ukraine, Turkey and Brazil, the process continues in other jurisdictions that are required before we can close. Also, among other things, the registration statement process continues with the Securities Exchange Commission and there are many required filings including those needed to stand up the right to operate in the appropriate legal entities. The legal, regulatory and financial teams are working day and night to support these activities and have done an amazing job in getting us to where we are today!

Integration & Separation Planning

If we look at the integration planning work, we have also been making great progress: integration leaders from N&B and IFF are working diligently to plan for the future combined company. We want to be bold and make key steps to bring the businesses together from Day 1 after the merger closes—yet, we must be very focused on ensuring business continuity across all divisions, functions and manufacturing plants. On Day 1, we still need to be able to run the business, produce products and deliver to customers!

We have already communicated key decisions such as the future vision, purpose, operating model and Executive Committee of the future combined company. A change to the future Executive Committee was communicated in July with the departure of Angela Naef and the decision to appoint Dr. Greg Yep, current R&D leader at IFF, to future Executive Committee member for R&D and Sustainability. Moreover, last week the appointment of Kathy Fortmann to the future Executive Committee as the President of the Taste, Food & Beverage division in the future combined company was announced.

Another crucial part of getting ready for the intended merger is preparing for N&B to separate from DuPont. Today, we are an integrated part of DuPont and rely on IT systems, work processes, teams and much more from DuPont. To ensure a smooth transition, separation teams are standing up IT systems and applications, legal entities, processes, and HR systems and processes.

One Step Closer

Though a number of milestones are yet to be completed, the separation work and the integration planning are both well underway. With this announcement of IFF’s shareholder vote, we are now one step closer to forming a new combined company that will be well equipped to provide state-of-the-art solutions to customers from a broad and unique product offering—and that will be characterized by great science, innovation, and, most importantly, the best talent!

Thank you for your dedicated work to date. Be it on separation, integration or ensuring that we continue to run our daily business, we all play an important role in N&B’s journey towards the intended merger!

Kind regards,

Matthias Heinzel
