Other Events

 

Exxon Mobil Corporation (“ExxonMobil”) has received notice of an unsolicited “mini-tender” offer by TRC Capital Corporation (“TRC Capital”) to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of ExxonMobil’s common stock at an offer price of $78.00 per share, which is approximately 4.42 percent lower than the $81.61 per share closing price for shares of ExxonMobil’s common stock on March 10, 2017, the business day prior to the date of the offer.  The shares subject to TRC Capital’s offer represent approximately 0.05 percent of the shares outstanding as of the date of the offer. 

 

On March 24, 2017, ExxonMobil issued the press release attached to this Report as Exhibit 99, informing its shareholders that ExxonMobil does not endorse TRC Capital’s unsolicited mini-tender offer and recommending that shareholders do not tender their shares.  Shareholders who have already tendered their shares may withdraw them at any time prior to the expiration of the offer, in accordance with TRC Capital’s offering documents.  The offer is currently scheduled to expire at 12:01 a.m., New York City time, on Tuesday, April 11, 2017, but TRC Capital may extend the offering period at its discretion.  ExxonMobil is not affiliated or associated in any way with TRC Capital, its mini-tender offer or the offer documentation. 

 

Additional information concerning mini-tenders is included in the attached press release.
