CHICAGO- ADM (NYSE: ADM) today announced that as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on September 21, 2020 (the 'Early Tender Time'), the below-listed amounts of the following debentures and notes (the 'Securities') have been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in connection with the cash tender offers, as reported by D.F. King & Co., Inc., the tender and information agent for the tender offers. These Securities, if accepted, will be eligible for the early tender payment of $30.00 per $1,000.00 principal amount of Securities accepted for purchase. Securities tendered pursuant to the offers can no longer be withdrawn. The terms and conditions of the tender offers are described in the Offer to Purchase, dated September 8, 2020 (as may be supplemented from time to time, the 'Offer to Purchase'), and the related Letter of Transmittal.

In response to the amount of Securities validly tendered and not validly withdrawn by the Early Tender Time, ADM has decided to increase the Maximum Principal Amount of the Securities that may be purchased pursuant to the terms of the tender offers from $600,000,000 to up to $664,843,000. All other terms of the tender offers, as previously announced, remain unchanged.

The tender offers will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on October 5, 2020, unless extended.

The applicable total consideration will be determined as described in the Offer to Purchase based on the present value of future payments on the applicable Securities discounted to the Early Settlement Date at a rate equal to the sum of the yield to maturity for the applicable reference security, calculated by the lead dealer managers based on the bid-side price at 10:00 a.m., New York City time on September 22, 2020, plus the applicable fixed spread, minus accrued interest up to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date or the Final Settlement Date, as applicable, which are currently expected to be September 23, 2020 and October 6, 2020, respectively.

It is expected that ADM will purchase up to $664,843,000 aggregate principal amount of the above-listed tendered Securities on the Early Settlement Date, which represents the full amount of the Securities tendered and not withdrawn by the Early Tender Time.

The consummation of the tender offers is conditioned upon the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase.

ADM has retained BofA Securities and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as lead dealer managers, and D.F. King & Co., Inc. as the tender and information agent for the tender offers.
