<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">RTX Corporation, one of the largest aerospace and defense manufacturers<B>,</B>
is facing increasing demand for lower-emission technologies from its largest defense and commercial customers. The U.S. Department of
Defense, the EU, and NATO acknowledge that climate change is a threat multiplier and that reducing dependence on fossil fuels is a critical
military advantage. <SUP>4</SUP> RTX&#8217;s ability to outpace competitors in anticipating and developing in-demand technologies is a
key value driver.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">RTX and its customers are also facing potential transition and compliance
costs from emerging regulations as the global drive to decarbonize spurs stricter emissions standards, fuel blend requirements, and growing
use of carbon pricing. Proactive efforts to measure, disclose, and reduce full value-chain emissions can mitigate such costs and better
position RTX to take advantage of transition-related opportunities.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">While RTX has set an emissions reduction target for its operations,
this goal covers only 5% of the Company&#8217;s total emissions.<SUP>5</SUP> RTX has yet to set a target to reduce emissions from its
value chain, which constitutes 95% of the Company&#8217;s overall emissions. The Company outlines a path to support the civil aviation
industry&#8217;s 2050 net-zero commitment but does not disclose an enterprise-wide transition strategy. By disclosing a plan or target
to reduce its full value-chain emissions, RTX can better prepare itself to meet, and support customers in meeting, emerging regulations
while mitigating climate risk across its business.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Aerospace and industrial companies are galvanizing action and investment
toward decarbonization. RTX risks falling behind as peers such as Honeywell, Safran, and Deere have established emission reduction targets
through the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) that cover all emissions scopes.<SUP>6</SUP></P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">By setting science-aligned emission reduction targets across its full

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Despite more than a third of shareholders supporting last year&#8217;s
proposal for RTX to reduce its largest sources of emissions, RTX has not addressed these concerns or the request of the proposal.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">While RTX states that it supports the Air Transport Action Group&#8217;s
(ATAG) collective ambition to achieve net zero by 2050, it has yet to set corporate targets across its full value chain to align itself
with this ambition. RTX has also set a target to reduce its operational emissions 46% by 2030, but RTX&#8217;s operational emissions make
up only 5% of its total carbon footprint. Its value chain emissions make up the other 95% of its footprint and RTX has set no targets
for these emissions.<SUP>29,30</SUP></P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">RTX states that it is addressing Scope 3 emissions through advancing
propulsion technologies, optimizing efficient designs, and optimizing air traffic management.<SUP>31</SUP> This work, however, only covers
civil aviation, leaving over 50% of RTX&#8217;s net sales from defense and military sales not covered by RTX&#8217;s current targets.
RTX therefore fails to address the significant portion of emissions coming from its defense segments, despite US and foreign militaries
signaling demand for lower-carbon products and services. RTX describes innovations it is working on for the defense sector, like electric
power generators and more fuel-efficient aircraft, however it does not set reduction targets or disclose what, if any, of its civil technology
advancements could transfer over to its defense products.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">In addition to downstream emissions, RTX also purchases emissions-intensive
products and raw materials. While it states it is working to increase circularity of recyclable materials and improve supplier emissions
reporting, RTX does not communicate how such efforts will reduce its upstream emissions.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">RTX&#8217;s technology roadmap and related initiatives lack clarity
on how it plans to align its entire value chain with the 1.5C target. Establishing such a target and developing a transition plan has
multiple benefits. It will focus and drive company action, enable management to assess its climate progress, guide investments and strategy
across its value chain to meet evolving regulations and customer demands, prepare it to meet regulatory requirements, and provide information
necessary for investors to make sound investment decisions.</P>
