Project No. 2013-07'') has filed written notifications simultaneously 
with the Attorney General and the Federal Trade Commission disclosing 
(1) the identities of the parties to the venture and (2) the nature and

of invoking the Act's provisions limiting the recovery of antitrust 
plaintiffs to actual damages under specified circumstances.
    Pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Act, the identities of the parties 
to the venture are: ExxonMobil Research and Engineering Company, 
Fairfax, VA; Chevron U.S.A., Inc., San Ramon, CA; BP Products North 
America Inc., Naperville, IL; and Shell Global Solutions (US) Inc.,
