4.Policy
4.1 No Insider Trading
4.1.1 You shall not, directly or indirectly, purchase or sell securities on the basis of material nonpublic information (as defined below, “Material Nonpublic Information”), or “Tip” any person who may trade on the basis of that information.
a.“Material information” is information that, taking into account all available information, a reasonable investor likely would consider important in deciding to buy, hold or sell a security or could have an effect on the price of the company’s securities;
b.“Nonpublic information” is information that has not been publicly disclosed by RTX in a widely disseminated communication such as a news release that a major service distributes or a public filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”); even after a public announcement of Material information, a reasonable period of time must elapse in order for the market to react to the information (generally 24 hours following public announcement for RTX Material information and 72 hours following public announcement for other companies’ Material information);
c.“Tipping” means disclosing Material Nonpublic Information directly or indirectly to others who may trade based on that information or making recommendations or providing advice on transactions in securities while aware of Material Nonpublic Information; this includes any form of oral or written communication, electronic message or posting of comments or information on Internet sites, bulletin boards, “expert networks,” social media or chat rooms, or any other form of communication; and
d.“On the basis of” means while aware of Material Nonpublic Information, regardless of whether the information did in fact affect your decision to trade in securities.
e.For example, information could be Material if it relates to actual or potential:
i.Earnings or other financial results;
ii.Acquisitions, divestitures, mergers or joint ventures;

Document Number: | GCP-30 |  | Effective Date: | October 4, 2021 |  | Page: | 3 | Of: | 11

iii.Developments regarding customers (such as the receipt or loss of a significant contract) or suppliers;
iv.Pending or threatened litigation, investigations or disputes;
v.New products, services, technologies or discoveries;
vi.Significant purchases or sales of assets;
vii.Write-downs of assets;
viii.Changes in valuation of reserves;
ix.Events relating to the company’s equity or debt securities (such as sale of securities, stock repurchases, changes in dividends, stock splits, or defaults on securities);
x.Changes in control or management;
xi.Cybersecurity breaches, threats or other incidents; or
xii.Changes in independent auditors or notification that the company may not rely on an audit report.
xiii.Note: This list is non-exhaustive and for illustrative purposes only. It can be difficult to know whether information is Material. You must be sure to consider all relevant facts and circumstances, including quantitative and qualitative factors. Positive or negative information can be Material. Bear in mind that regulators and others with the benefit of hindsight may disagree with you. You should consult with Legal, Contracts and Compliance if you are unsure whether information is Material.
4.1.2 This policy applies to the following types of securities:
a.Securities issued by RTX and its subsidiaries (collectively, “RTX Securities”), including RTX common stock, options to purchase RTX common stock, stock appreciation rights, stock options, performance stock units, performance stock, restricted stock, stock units or units acquired under a company savings plan or non-qualified deferred compensation plan (except as set forth in Section 4.3.1), other types of securities that RTX or a subsidiary may issue, such as preferred stock, convertible debentures and warrants, as well as derivative securities not issued by RTX, such as exchange-traded and over-the-counter put or call options or swaps where the value is tied, in whole or in part, to RTX or an RTX Security; and
b.Another company’s securities if you are aware of Material Nonpublic Information about it and obtained that information in the course of your

service with RTX, which may occur in the context of a partner, customer or supplier relationship or in connection with an actual or potential business transaction with that other company. You may not trade in that other company’s securities until seventy-two (72) hours after the information is broadly disseminated to the public (e.g., pursuant to a news release that a major service distributes) or made public through a filing with the SEC or is no longer material.
4.1.3 In addition to your transactions, this policy applies to the following types of transactions:
a.Transactions made by a third party on your behalf, such as trades made in an investment account managed by a broker or advisor; and
b.Transactions made by your family and household members and entities whose transactions you or your family and household members direct, control or influence. Such entities include trusts, charities, corporations and partnerships, for example.
4.1.4 This policy applies to the following types of retirement plan transactions involving the RTX Stock Fund: changing the percentage of automatic periodic contributions through payroll deductions, making intra-plan transfers of existing account balances in or to other funds, withdrawing cash, and taking out loans.
4.1.5 This policy applies to electing to participate in a RTX dividend reinvestment plan, and buying RTX stock with voluntary payments into a dividend reinvestment plan.

4.2 Restrictions on Short Sales, Hedging and Pledging of RTX Common Stock
4.2.1 Regardless of whether you are aware of Material Nonpublic Information, you must not engage in:

otherwise engaging in transactions that are designed to or have the effect of hedging or offsetting any decrease in the market value of RTX Securities granted to or held, directly or indirectly, by you.
4.2.2 We strongly recommend that you avoid the below activities due to the possibility that they may result in involuntary sales in RTX Securities at a time during which you are not permitted to sell RTX Securities.

4.3.2 The restrictions in this policy do not apply to your exercises of RTX-issued stock options and/or stock appreciation rights where no sale of the underlying stock is involved (a so- called “exercise and hold” transaction, as opposed to a “cashless” or “broker-assisted” transaction).
4.3.3 The restrictions in this policy do not apply to purchases or sales of RTX Securities under a pre-arranged trading plan that meets the following conditions (a “10b5-1 Trading Plan”):
a.The plan complies with Rule 10b5-1(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934;

If you have access to Material Nonpublic Information relating to RTX or to another company, you must maintain the confidentiality of that information and take reasonable steps to protect it from disclosure to persons within RTX who do not have a “need to know” and to third parties, and otherwise comply with GCP-14, Protection of RTX and Third Party Information.
4.5.2 The SEC’s Regulation Fair Disclosure ("FD") prohibits public companies such as RTX from selectively disclosing Material Nonpublic Information to Securities Market Professionals (defined below) and investors unless they simultaneously disclose such information to the public generally. As a result, RTX will only disclose Material Nonpublic Information through means reasonably designed to provide broad dissemination to the public so that all investors have prompt and fair access to this information.
a.Examples of broad dissemination include:

As a result, you must immediately notify the RTX General Counsel if you become aware of any unauthorized disclosure of Material Nonpublic Information.
4.5.6 One or more Authorized Persons and Legal, Contracts and Compliance must review and approve in advance any RTX disclosures of Material Nonpublic Information to Securities Market Professionals or investors in accordance with this policy.

b.Communications that written confidentiality agreements protect; and

It also does not apply to Corporate Strategy & Development’s communications with accountants, lawyers, investment banks or other financial institutions who owe a duty of trust and confidence because of the relationship or because they have signed a written confidentiality agreement.
4.6 Consequences of Violations
4.6.1 The consequences of insider trading violations and selective disclosure violations can involve criminal and civil fines and penalties for the individuals involved, their supervisors and RTX.
