               File No. 001-02256

Dear Mr. Goldberg:

       We have reviewed the above-captioned filings and have the following
comments. In
some of our comments, we may ask you to provide us with information so we may
better
understand your disclosure.

       Please respond to this letter by amending the referenced filings and/or
by providing the
requested information. After reviewing any amendment to the filings and any
information
provided in response to these comments, we may have additional comments.

       If you do not believe our comments apply to your facts and
circumstances, and/or do not
believe an amendment is appropriate, please tell us why in a written response.

DEFA14A Filed March 31, 2021

1. We note your references to solicitations sent to investors via email that do
not identify the
   soliciting party. Absent a reasonable factual basis, please refrain from
implying that Engine
   No. 1 sent these emails in efforts to confuse shareholders. It is our
understanding that a
   third-party proxy service provider sent these soliciting materials and that
Engine No. 1 did
   not have the ability to control the format or content of the excerpts that
you reference.

2. We note your statements referring to Engine No. 1   s    value-destructive
agenda    and
   asserting that its proposed initiatives    would jeopardize [ExxonMobil   s]
ability to generate
   the earnings and cash flow we need to pay our dividend and invest in future
growth.    To the
   extent you make similar statements in future filings, please characterize
those statements as
   beliefs or opinions. Note that a reasonable factual basis must exist for
each such assertion of
   opinion or belief.
