PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS.
Exxon Corporation was incorporated in the State of New Jersey in 1882.
Divisions and affiliated companies of Exxon operate or market products in the
United States and over 100 other countries. Their principal business is
energy, involving exploration for, and production of, crude oil and natural
gas, manufacturing of petroleum products and transportation and sale of crude
oil, natural gas and petroleum products. Exxon Chemical Company, a division of
Exxon, is a major manufacturer and marketer of petrochemicals. Exxon is
engaged in exploration for, and mining and sale of, coal and other minerals.
Exxon also has an interest in electric power generation in Hong Kong.
Affiliates of Exxon conduct extensive research programs in support of these
businesses.
The terms corporation, company, Exxon, our, we and its, as used in this
report, sometimes refer not only to Exxon Corporation or to one of its
divisions but collectively to all of the companies affiliated with Exxon
Corporation or to any one or more of them. The shorter terms are used merely
for convenience and simplicity.
The oil and chemical industries are highly competitive. There is competition
within the industries and also with other industries in supplying the energy,
fuel and chemical needs of commerce, industry and individuals. The corporation
competes with other firms in the sale or purchase of various goods or services
in many national and international markets and employs all methods of
competition which are lawful and appropriate for such purposes.
Exxon Chemical is a major producer of basic petrochemicals, including
olefins and aromatics, and a leading supplier of specialty rubbers and of
additives for fuels and lubricants. Other products manufactured include
polyethylene and polypropylene plastics, plasticizers, specialty resins,
specialty and commodity solvents and performance chemicals for oil field
operations.
The operations and earnings of the corporation and its affiliates throughout
the world have been, and may in the future be, affected from time to time in
varying degree by political developments and laws and regulations, such as
forced divestiture of assets; restrictions on production, imports and exports;
price controls; tax increases and retroactive tax claims; expropriations of
property; cancellation of contract rights and environmental regulations. Both
the likelihood of such occurrences and their overall effect upon the
corporation vary greatly from country to country and are not predictable.
In 1995, the corporation spent $1,753 million (of which $565 million were
capital expenditures) on environmental conservation projects and expenses
worldwide, mostly dealing with air and water conservation. Total expenditures
for such activities are expected to be about $1.7 billion in 1996 and 1997
(with capital expenditures in each year representing about 30 percent of the
total).
Operating data and industry segment information for the corporation are
contained on pages F3, F20 and F27, information on oil and gas reserves is
contained on pages F24 and F25 and information on company-sponsored research
and development activities is contained on page F12 of the accompanying
financial section of the 1995 Annual Report to shareholders.*
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.
Part of the information in response to this item and to the Securities
Exchange Act Industry Guide 2 is contained in the accompanying financial
section of the 1995 Annual Report to shareholders in Note 7, which note
appears on page F13, and on pages F3, and F22 through F27.*
- --------
*Only the data appearing on pages F1 and F3 through F27 of the accompanying
financial section of the 1995 Annual Report to shareholders, incorporated in
this report as Exhibit 13, are deemed to be filed as part of this Annual
Report on Form 10-K as indicated under Items 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8 and on
page 13.
Information with regard to oil and gas producing activities follows:
1. NET RESERVES OF CRUDE OIL AND NATURAL GAS LIQUIDS (MILLIONS OF BARRELS) AND
NATURAL GAS (BILLIONS OF CUBIC FEET) AT YEAR-END 1995
Estimated proved reserves are shown on pages F24 and F25 of the accompanying
financial section of the 1995 Annual Report to shareholders. No major
discovery or other favorable or adverse event has occurred since December 31,
1995 that would cause a significant change in the estimated proved reserves as
of that date. The oil sands reserves shown separately for Canada represent
synthetic crude oil expected to be recovered from Imperial Oil Limited's 25
percent interest in the net reserves set aside for the Syncrude project, as
presently defined by government permit. For information on the standardized
measure of discounted future net cash flows relating to proved oil and gas
reserves, see page F26 of the accompanying financial section of the 1995
Annual Report to shareholders.
2. ESTIMATES OF TOTAL NET PROVED OIL AND GAS RESERVES FILED WITH OTHER FEDERAL
AGENCIES
During 1995, the company filed proved reserve estimates with the U.S.
Department of Energy on Forms EIA-23 and EIA-28. The information is consistent
with the 1994 Annual Report to shareholders with the exception of EIA-23 which
covered total oil and gas reserves from Exxon-operated properties in the U.S.
and does not include gas plant liquids.
3. AVERAGE SALES PRICES AND PRODUCTION COSTS PER UNIT OF PRODUCTION
Incorporated by reference to page F22 of the accompanying financial section
of the 1995 Annual Report to shareholders. Average sales prices have been
calculated by using sales quantities from our own production as the divisor.
Average production costs have been computed by using net production quantities
for the divisor. The volumes of crude oil and natural gas liquids (NGL)
production used for this computation are shown in the reserves table on page
F24 of the accompanying financial section of the 1995 Annual Report to
shareholders. The net production volumes of natural gas available for sale by
the producing function used in this calculation are shown on page F27 of the
accompanying financial section of the 1995 Annual Report to shareholders. The
volumes of natural gas were converted to oil equivalent barrels based on a
conversion factor of six thousand cubic feet per barrel.

7. SUMMARY OF ACREAGE TERMS IN KEY AREAS
United States
Oil and gas exploration leases are acquired for varying periods of time,
ranging from one to ten years. Production leases normally remain in effect
until production ceases.
Canada
Exploration permits are granted for varying periods of time with renewals
possible. Production leases are held as long as there is production on the
lease.
Cold Lake oil sands leases were taken for an initial 21-year term in 1968-69
and renewed for a second 21-year term in 1989-1990. All undeveloped Athabasca
oil sands leases are currently in their second 21-year term after being
renewed between 1980 and 1987. They may be renewed for a third term of 15
years if the leaseholder files a development plan with the Alberta regulatory
authority. The regulatory approval received for Syncrude has set the expiry
date of the current production lease at 2025. Also, two recent in-situ
Athabasca oil sands permits were obtained. At the end of five years, provided
delineation has been completed, the permits will convert to 15-year leases.
One permit is due to convert in 1999 and the other in 2000.
United Kingdom
Licenses issued prior to 1977 were for an initial period of six years with
an option to extend the license for a further 40 years on no more than half of
the license area. Licenses issued between 1977 and 1979 were for an initial
period of four years, after which one-third of the acreage was required to be
relinquished, followed by a second period of three years, after which an
additional one-third of the acreage was required to be relinquished, with an
option to extend for a total license period of 24 to 36 years on no more than
half the license area. Recent licenses are typically for an initial period of
six to nine years, with a second term of 12 to 15 years which may be extended
a further 18 to 24 years.
Netherlands
Onshore: Exploration drilling permits are issued for a period of two to five
years. Production concessions are granted after discoveries have been made
under conditions which are negotiated with the government. Normally, they are
field-life concessions covering an area defined by hydrocarbon occurrences.
Offshore: Prospecting licenses issued prior to March 1976 were for a 15-year
period, with relinquishment of about 50 percent of the original area required
at the end of ten years. Subsequent
3
licenses are for ten years with relinquishment of about 50 percent of the
original area required after six years. For commercial discoveries within a
prospecting license, a production license is issued for a 40-year period.
Norway
Licenses issued prior to 1972 were for a total period of 46 years, with
relinquishment of at least one-fourth of the original area required at the end
of the sixth year and another one-fourth at the end of the ninth year.
Subsequent licenses are for a total period of 36 years, with relinquishment of
at least one-half of the original area required at the end of the sixth year.
France
Exploration permits are granted for periods of three to five years,
renewable up to two times accompanied by substantial acreage relinquishments:
50 percent of the acreage at first renewal; 25 percent of the remaining
acreage at second renewal. A 1994 law requires a bidding process prior to
granting of an exploration permit. Upon discovery of commercial hydrocarbons,
a production concession is granted for up to 50 years, renewable in periods of
25 years each.
Germany
Acreage holdings are generally concessions with indefinite periods subject
to minimum work commitments.
Australia
Onshore: Acreage terms are fixed by the individual state and territory
governments. These terms and conditions vary significantly between the states
and territories. Production licenses are generally granted for an initial term
of 21 years, with subsequent renewals, each for 21 years, for the full area.
Offshore: Acreage terms are fixed by the national government. Exploration
permits are granted for six years with possible renewals of five-year periods
to a total of 26 years. A 50 percent relinquishment of remaining area is
mandatory at the end of each renewal period. Production licenses are for 21
years, with one renewal of 21 years. Subsequent 21-year renewals are subject
to negotiation.
Malaysia
Exploration and production activities are governed by production sharing
contracts negotiated with the national oil company. The more recent contracts
have an overall term of 24 to 28 years with possible extensions to the
exploration or development periods. The exploration period is five to seven
years with the possibility of extensions, after which time areas with no
commercial discoveries must be relinquished. The development period is four to
six years from commercial discovery, with an option to extend the period for
an additional two years and possibly longer under special circumstances. Areas
from which commercial production has not started by the end of the development
period must be relinquished. The total production period is 15 years from
first commercial lifting, not to exceed the overall term of the contract.
Thailand
The Exxon concessions and the Petroleum Act of 1972 allow production for 30
years (through 2021) with a possible ten-year extension at terms generally
prevalent at the time.
Azerbaijan
The license is a production sharing contract with an initial period of 30
years from its 1994 execution date.
4
Republic of Yemen
Production sharing agreements negotiated with the government entitle Exxon
to participate in exploration operations within a designated area during the
exploration period. In the event of a commercial discovery, the company is
entitled to proceed with development and production operations during the
development period. The length of these periods and other specific terms are
negotiated prior to executing the production sharing agreement. Existing
production operations have a development period extending 20 years from first
commercial declaration made in November 1985.
Egypt
Exploration and production activities are governed by concession agreements
negotiated with the government. These agreements generally permit three
exploration periods, with the first period being three years, and the
remaining two optional periods being two years each with 25 percent of the
remaining acreage relinquished at each renewal. Production operations have an
overall term of 30 years, with an option for a ten-year extension.

B. Review of Principal Ongoing Activities in Key Areas
UNITED STATES
During 1995, exploration activities were conducted by Exxon Exploration
Company and producing activities by Exxon Company, U.S.A., both divisions of
Exxon Corporation. Some of the more significant ongoing activities are:
. Exploration and delineation of additional hydrocarbon resources
continued. At year-end 1995, Exxon's inventory of undeveloped acreage
totaled 3.6 million net acres. Exxon is active in areas onshore and
offshore in the lower 48 states and in Alaska. A total of ten net
exploration and delineation wells were completed during 1995.
. During 1995, 116 net development wells were completed within and around
mature fields in the inland lower 48 states.
. Exxon's net acreage in the Gulf of Mexico at year-end 1995 was 1.2
million acres. A total of 26 net exploratory and development wells were
completed during the year.
. There were no new major projects which started up in 1995. Fabrication
of facilities for the Ram-Powell project, which will involve setting a
tension-leg platform (TLP) in approximately 3,200 feet of water, is
progressing. Start-up is expected in 1997.
. Participation in Alaska production and development continued and a total
of nine net development wells were drilled in 1995. At the Point
McIntyre field, debottlenecking of production facilities continued,
allowing production to increase to 50 thousand barrels per day (net) by
year-end.
CANADA
During 1995, exploration and production activities in Canada were conducted
by the Resources Division of Imperial Oil Limited, which is 69.6 percent owned
by Exxon Corporation. Some of the more significant ongoing activities are:
. Gross commercial bitumen production from Cold Lake averaged 94 thousand
barrels per day during 1995. Work continued to expand the steam-
injection, bitumen recovery operations. The expansion is expected to
increase heavy oil production to about 130 thousand barrels per day by
1997.
. The Syncrude plant, 25 percent owned by Imperial and located in northern
Alberta, completed its 17th year of operations. Gross synthetic crude
production averaged 202 thousand barrels per day in 1995.

established production operations. A total of 38.7 million net acres were held
at year-end, and 3.7 net exploration wells were completed during the year.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
As initially reported in the registrant's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
the quarter ended March 31, 1992, the registrant was sued by Metropolitan Dade
County in the Eleventh Judicial Circuit Court, Dade County, Florida, for
alleged hydrocarbon soil and groundwater contamination relating to an
underground tank and piping system beneath a former Exxon service station in
Opa Locka, Florida. On June 8, 1995, the court entered an order granting the
registrant's motion for summary judgment, and on August 9, 1995, the court
denied the plaintiff's motion for rehearing of that order.
Refer to the relevant portions of Note 14 on page F16 of the accompanying
