Immer effizienter und klimafreundlicher – 2019 aber reicht das? OUTLOOK FOR ENERGY: Die globale Energieprognose bis 2040 von 2018 Outlook for Energy: A View to 2040 A PERSPECTIVE Exxon TO Mob2 il040 EID Kraftstoff-Forum The Outlook for Energy includes Exxon Mobil Corporation’s internal estimates of both historical levels and projections of challenging topics such as energy demand, supply, and 24.3.2021 trends through 2040 based upon internal data and analyses as well as publicly available information from many external sources including the International Energy Agency. Separate from ExxonMobil’s analysis, we include a number of third party scenarios such as the EMF 27 scenarios and the IEA’s Sustainable Development Scenario. Third-party scenarios discussed in this report reflect the modeling assumptions and outputs of their respective authors, not ExxonMobil, and their use and inclusion herein is not an endorsement by ExxonMobil of their likelihood or probability. Work on the Outlook and report was conducted during 2018 and the first half of 2019. The report contains forward looking statements, including projections, targets, expectations, estimates and assumptions of future behaviors. Actual future conditions and results (including energy demand, energy Dr. Thorsten Hinz, ExxonMobil supply, the growth of energy demand and supply, the impact of new technologies, the relative mix of energy across sources, economic sectors and geographic regions, imports and exports of energy) could differ materially due to changes in economic conditions, the ability to scale new technologies on a cost-effective basis, unexpected technological ‹#› developments, the development of new supply sources, changes in law or government policy, political events, demographic changes and migration patterns, trade patterns, the development and enforcement of global, regional or national mandates, and other factors discussed herein and under the heading “Factors Affecting Future Results” in the Investors section of our website at www.exxonmobil.com.

EXXONMOBIL 2019 OUTLOOK FOR ENERGY The Outlook for Energy includes Exxon Mobil Corporation’s internal estimates of both historical levels and projections of challenging topics such as energy demand, supply, and trends through 2040 based upon internal data and analyses as well as publicly available information from many external sources including the International Energy Agency. Separate from ExxonMobil’s analysis, we include a number of third party scenarios such as the EMF 27 scenarios and the IEA’s Sustainable Development Scenario. Third-party scenarios discussed in this report reflect the modeling assumptions and outputs of their respective authors, not ExxonMobil, and their use and inclusion herein is not an endorsement by ExxonMobil of their likelihood or probability. Work on the Outlook and report was conducted during 2018 and the first half of 2019. The report contains forward looking statements, including projections, targets, expectations, estimates and assumptions of future behaviors. Actual future conditions and results (including energy demand, energy supply, the growth of energy demand and supply, the impact of new technologies, the relative mix of energy across sources, economic sectors and geographic regions, imports and exports of energy) could differ materially due to changes in economic conditions, the ability to scale new technologies on a cost-effective basis, unexpected technological developments, the development of new supply sources, changes in law or government policy, political events, demographic changes and migration patterns, trade patterns, the development and enforcement of global, regional or national mandates, and other factors discussed herein and under the heading “Factors Affecting Future Results” in the Investors section of our website at www.exxonmobil.com.
