$XOM · Exxon Mobil Corporation

ExxonMobil Holdings Corporation filed additional proxy soliciting materials containing sample reminder letters and emails sent to shareholders enrolled in its Voluntary Retail Voting Program. The communications inform participants that, unless they opt out or override their standing instructions, their shares will be voted in line with the Board of Directors’ recommendations. Shareholders can change their participation preference or cancel their standing voting instruction by scanning a QR code or using a manage instruction button, and they may still vote their own proxy for any proposal at any shareholder meeting.

For the 2026 Annual Meeting, votes were cast according to those standing instructions unless a shareholder chose to override them. Some program participants had standing instructions that excluded contested director elections and certain acquisition, merger, or divestiture transactions requiring shareholder approval; for 2026, the Texas Redomiciliation proposal was included in that exception. The filing lists the Board’s recommendations: for election of directors, ratification of independent auditors, advisory vote on executive compensation, and Texas Redomiciliation; and against an independent chair proposal and a proposal to modify the Voluntary Retail Voting Program to offer multiple options not aligned with Board recommendations.

The materials also note that ExxonMobil intends to file a definitive proxy statement with the SEC for future annual and special meetings, which will contain important information about the matters to be voted on at each specific meeting.
