 same day, Mr. Fisher emailed a letter to Mr. Mather from Mr. Fernandez-Moreno offering to introduce Mr. Mather to Mr. Li if desired and offering Mr. Mather a few times for a call in the next few days with him and Ms. Blackwell. That evening, Mr. Mather confirmed receipt of the letter to Mr. Fisher by email and submitted a supplement to Vision One’s Nomination Notice, stating that the Chemours Company (NYSE: CC) had nominated Mr. Mather for election to their board of directors at their upcoming annual meeting.
