ExxonMobil Reaches Agreement on Sale of Texas Marketing Assets

    IRVING, Texas, March 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Exxon Mobil Corporation
(NYSE: XOM) announced today that it has finalized agreements of sale for most
of Mobil's Texas marketing assets and supply arrangements, involving about
430 stations.  The agreements satisfy the conditions required by the Federal
Trade Commission and the Texas Attorney General, who signed a parallel consent
order for approving the ExxonMobil merger, and have received regulatory
approval.

     The agreements announced today provide for:

     --  the sale of Mobil's 49 percent equity interest and the assignment of
         Mobil's supply contracts in Austin, Dallas and San Antonio to Tetco,
         Inc. (about 318 stations).
     --  the sale of Mobil's interests in seven Dallas area service stations,
         as required by the FTC, plus three additional outlets in the Fort
         Worth area, to 7-Eleven, Inc.  Mobil and 7-Eleven, Inc. jointly
         developed and operated these 10 retail outlets.
     --  the assignment of Mobil's supply contracts in Houston and
         Bryan-College Station to Petroleum Wholesale Inc. (about
         102 stations).

marketing presence in Texas with the retention of approximately 1,500 Exxon-
branded stations and 200 Mobil-branded stations in the state.

petrochemicals company whose subsidiaries have operations in about
