SUPPLEMENT TO THE PROXY STATEMENT DATED MARCH 12, 2021

FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS OF

DUPONT DE NEMOURS, INC.

TO BE HELD ON APRIL 28, 2021

April 13, 2021

TO OUR STOCKHOLDERS:

On or about March 12, 2021, DuPont de Nemours, Inc. (the 'Company') made available a proxy statement (as supplemented by a supplement dated March 17, 2021, the 'Proxy Statement') to its stockholders describing the matters to be voted on at the Company's 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the 'Annual Meeting'), including as Agenda Item 5 a stockholder proposal relating to the right to act by written consent (the 'Written Consent Stockholder Proposal'). The Written Consent Stockholder Proposal appears on pages 66 and 67 of the Proxy Statement. The Company is not responsible for the content of the stockholder proposal or supporting statement, but is responsible for the Company's statement and recommendation relating to the Written Consent Stockholder Proposal.

The purpose of this supplement is to include additional text in the Written Consent Stockholder Proposal's supporting statement that was inadvertently omitted from the Proxy Statement at the top of page 67. Accordingly, the last line of the supporting statement of the Written Consent Stockholder Proposal is hereby supplemented to read (new text in bold):

Please vote yes:

Adopt a Mainstream Shareholder Right - Written Consent - Proposal 5

This supplement to the Proxy Statement is first being released to stockholders on or about April 13, 2021, and should be read together with the Proxy Statement. Other than the additional text in the supporting statement to the Written Consent Stockholder Proposal, no changes are otherwise being made to the Written Consent Stockholder Proposal or the Proxy Statement or the proxy card for the Annual Meeting, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and previously delivered or otherwise made available to stockholders of record as of March 8, 2021. The information contained in this Supplement to the Proxy Statement modifies or supersedes any inconsistent information contained in the Proxy Statement.

* * *

As described in the Proxy Statement, the Annual Meeting will be a virtual meeting and will be held on Wednesday, April 28, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/DD2021.

Your vote is important. Information regarding how to vote your shares is available in the Proxy Statement. The Board of Directors continues to recommend that you vote AGAINST the Written Consent Stockholder Proposal. If you have not already voted, you are urged to vote by proxy as soon as possible over the Internet as instructed in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or, if you receive paper copies of the proxy materials by mail, you can also vote by following the instructions on your proxy card or other voting instruction form. If you have already voted, you do not need to take any action unless you wish to change your vote.

If you have already voted and would like to revoke your proxy or voting instructions at any time before their use at the Annual Meeting, you may do so by sending a written revocation, by submitting another proxy or voting form on a later date, or by voting virtually at the Annual Meeting. No matter which voting method you choose, however, you should not vote any single account more than once unless you wish to change your vote. Be sure to submit votes for each separate account in which you hold DuPont common stock.

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on March 8, 2021 or their proxy holders may vote at the Annual Meeting.

The Proxy Statement, along with the supplemental proxy materials and the Company's Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2020, are available at www.proxyvote.com.

Thank you for your continued support and your interest in DuPont de Nemours, Inc.
