This doesn't tell us anything about which version of Exim is used beyond
that it's something in "Exim4". There have been significant changes in
recent Exim 4 when it comes to GnuTLS configuration, entirely replacing
which configuration directives are used. See README.UPDATING as of 4.80
or later.

Google do not use unusual ciphersuites; not _default_ for things like
OpenSSL, as they strongly bias towards RC4-SHA for performance reasons,
but that should be accepted by you for connections from the Internet, as
it's normal and reasonable.
In mails from google.com machines, my logs record X=TLSv1:RC4-SHA:128
(and I support newer versions of TLS).
(Beware that for licensing/legal reasons, RC4 is sometimes spelt
ARCFOUR, especially in GnuTLS.)
Assuming you're using Exim 4.80.1 or somesuch, then pass whatever you
gave the "tls_require_ciphers" option in Exim to the
gnutls-list-ciphers(1) command.
A sane value for tls_require_ciphers in the main section, where you're
controlling TLS connections from the open Internet, might be:
