        <footnote id="F1">The stock units convert on a 1-for-1 basis.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">In accordance with the Lockheed Martin Corporation Amended and Restated Directors Equity Plan, each non-employee director receives an annual award of phantom stock units, which award is exempt under Rule 16b-3.  The phantom stock units were acquired at $324.93 per share and vest on December 31 following the award date or, if earlier, upon retirement, death, disability or change in control.  Settlement in cash or stock (as elected by the director) will occur upon the Reporting Person's retirement or termination of service.</footnote>
