IRVING, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Exxon
      Mobil Corporation (NYSE:XOM) will donate $500,000 to the American
      Red Cross and United Way for Hurricane Isaac disaster relief assistance
      in Louisiana and Mobile, AL.
   
   
      ?The flooding from the storm has been devastating, particularly in
      southern Louisiana,? said Steve Blume, manager, ExxonMobil Baton Rouge
      Refinery. ?We hope that our donation to the Red Cross and United Way
      will help the people of Louisiana and Mobile as they recover.?
   
   
      ExxonMobil?s donation is being directed to the Louisiana Capital Area
      Chapter Red Cross and the Capital Area United Way in Baton Rouge, the
      United Way of the Greater New Orleans Area, the Southeast Louisiana
      Chapter Red Cross and the Alabama Gulf Coast (Mobile) Chapter Red Cross.
   
   
      The Red Cross provides food, shelter, counseling and other assistance to
      the victims of this disaster and thousands of other disasters across the
      country each year. The Capital Area United Way serves an area which
      includes the parishes of Ascension, East Baton Rouge, East Feliciana,
      Iberville, Livingston, Pointe Coupee, St. Helena, St. James, West Baton
      Rouge, and West Feliciana.
   
   
      ExxonMobil employs approximately 5,000 employees and contractors in the
      Baton Rouge area, where it has operated refining and petrochemical
      manufacturing facilities for more than 100 years.
   
   
      The United Way for the Greater New Orleans area serves Jefferson,
      Orleans, Plaquemines, St. Bernard, St. Tammany, Tangipahoa and
      Washington parishes. In St. Bernard Parish, an ExxonMobil affiliate
      operates Chalmette Refining, L.L.C., which employs approximately 1,000
      employees and contractors.
   
   
      ?Like so many of the residents of southeastern Louisiana, our employees
      are clearing debris, patching roofs and rebuilding homes following
      Hurricane Isaac,? said Janet Matsushita, plant manager at Chalmette
      Refining. ?ExxonMobil?s support is making a meaningful difference in our
      community.?

      Louisiana and in the Gulf of Mexico, and employs approximately 200
