(4)

The description of the Registrant's capital stock contained in the Registrant's Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-75659), and any document filed which updates that description.


In addition, all documents filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 subsequent to the date of this Registration Statement and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which de-registers all securities then remaining unsold shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents.  Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.  Any statement so modified or superseded  shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.  



Item 6.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers.


ExxonMobil has no provisions for indemnification of directors or officers in its certificate of incorporation. Article X of the By-laws of the Registrant provides that it shall indemnify to the full extent permitted by law any director or officer made or threatened to be made a party to any legal action by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or other corporation agent of ExxonMobil or any subsidiary or served any other enterprise at the request of ExxonMobil against expenses, judgments, fines, penalties, excise taxes and amounts paid in settlement.  The New Jersey Business Corporation Act provides for the indemnification of directors and officers under certain conditions.  


ExxonMobil has purchased directors and officers liability insurance coverage from Ancon Insurance Company, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of ExxonMobil.

Item 8.

Exhibits.


See Index to Exhibits, which is incorporated herein by reference.



Item 9.

Undertakings.


(a)

The registrant hereby undertakes:


(1)

To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;


(2)

That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bonafide offering thereof; and


(3)

To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.


(b)

The registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and each filing of the plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.


(h)

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
