Business Wire
ExxonMobil said today that based on preliminary vote estimates
by its proxy solicitor, shareholders have elected eight of
ExxonMobil nominees to the board of directors and two of Engine No.
1 nominees. Vote results for five nominees were too close to
call.
“We welcome all of our new directors and look forward to working
with them constructively and collectively on behalf of all
shareholders,” said Darren Woods, chairman and chief executive
officer.
“We’ve been actively engaging with shareholders and received
positive feedback and support, particularly for our announcements
relating to low-carbon solutions and progress in efforts to reduce
costs and improve earnings. We heard from shareholders today about
their desire to further these efforts, and we are well positioned
to respond.”
ExxonMobil has developed a portfolio of investment opportunities
in high-return, low cost-of-supply projects. The company has also
significantly reduced emissions and set clear plans for further
reductions to 2025, consistent with the goals of the Paris
Agreement.
Re-elected ExxonMobil directors were Woods, Michael Angelakis,
Susan Avery, Angela Braly, Ursula Burns, Kenneth Frazier, Joseph
Hooley and Jeffrey Ubben. Elected from Engine No. 1’s nominees were
Gregory Goff and Kaisa Hietala.
The outcome was not yet determined for ExxonMobil director
candidates Steven Kandarian, Douglas Oberhelman, Samuel Palmisano
and Wan Zulkiflee, and for Engine No. 1 candidate Alexander
Karsner. A fourth Engine No. 1 candidate, Anders Runevad, was not
elected.
The board will reconsider two shareholder proposals that
received majority shareholder approval, which include Item No. 9,
calling for a report on lobbying, and Item No. 10, requesting a
report on climate lobbying.
The preliminary vote count is subject to certification by the
Independent Inspector of Elections. Additional information
regarding the results of the 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders
will be available in a current report on Form 8-K filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and on ExxonMobil’s investor
website
