ARTICLE I — INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE

The Litton Industries, Inc. Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “Supplemental Plan”) is hereby amended and restated effective as of October 1, 2004. This restatement is intended solely to incorporate into the Supplemental Plan document previously adopted amendments to the Plan and is not intended to make substantive changes to the Supplemental Plan.

The Supplemental Plan was last restated effective August 1, 2000. Since then the Supplemental Plan has been amended as follows:

| (a) | in December 2000 to amend the definition of “average compensation” in the event of a change of control;

| (b) | in March 2001 to change the form of benefits to be received by participants following a change of control;

| (c) | in April 2001 to address (1) the acquisition of Litton Industries, Inc. by Northrop Grumman Corporation, (2) investment matter changes as a result of this acquisition, and (3) plan administration changes as a result of this acquisition;

| (d) | in August 2001 to modify the plan administration changes resulting from the acquisition of Litton Industries, Inc.; and

| (e) | in December 2003 to freeze the Supplemental Plan as of December 31, 2003 and modify the benefit forms available under the Supplemental Plan effective as of April 3, 2001.

Litton Industries, Inc. established the Supplemental Plan as of August 1, 1995 and restated it as of August 1, 2000. Litton Industries, Inc. was later acquired by Northrop Grumman Corporation. Effective as of January 1, 2003, it was merged into Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation (the “Company”), which became the sponsor of the Supplemental Plan.

Effective as of December 31, 2003, the Supplemental Plan is frozen. No additional Participants are permitted after that date, and each participant’s benefits are frozen at their December 31, 2003 dollar amount.

The purpose of this Supplemental Plan is to provide for supplemental retirement benefits to certain key executive employees of the Company and thereby encourage those employees to continue providing services to the Company until their retirement. This Supplemental Plan is intended to provide benefits solely for a select group of management or highly compensated employees within the meaning of sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”). Payments under this Supplemental Plan shall be made either from the general assets of the Company, or from the assets of the Litton Industries, Inc., Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan Trust (the “Trust”), as provided under the terms of this Supplemental Plan and the Trust. It is intended that this

- 1 -

Supplemental Plan remain at all times an unfunded plan for purposes of ERISA and that the Trust shall constitute a grantor trust under Sections 671 through 679 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

ARTICLE II — DEFINITIONS

Section 2.1 “Active Participant” shall mean a key executive employee who has been designated as a Participant in this Supplemental Plan pursuant to Article III, and who continues to be employed by the Company. A Participant shall not be treated as having terminated from employment during any period of military service provided the Participant recommences employment by the Company within 90 days after discharge from any such military service. A Participant shall not be treated as having terminated from employment during any authorized unpaid leave of absence not in excess of one year. A Participant shall be treated as having terminated from employment during any other period of leave of absence, unless the Committee, in its sole and absolute discretion, and subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may specify, approves the Participant’s absence. However, a Disabled or deceased Participant shall continue to be treated as an Active Participant and, thus, continue to accrue additional Years of Service until the earlier of the calendar month that the Participant attains (or would have attained) age 65, or the date that the Participant is no longer Disabled. A Participant who terminates employment with the Company and is subsequently re-employed with the Company shall not be treated as an Active Participant unless the Committee re-designates the Participant as an Active Participant.

Section 2.2 “Actuarial Equivalent” shall, except in the event of a Change of Control in which case the assumptions provided for on the Appendix to this Supplemental Plan shall apply, mean the definition of such term under the Litton Industries, Inc. Retirement Plan “B”, as amended from time to time.

Section 2.3 “Annual Compensation” shall mean, for any calendar year, the amount of base pay and, incentive compensation under the Litton Industries, Inc. Performance Award Plan (or a similar plan), in either case paid, awarded, or electively deferred, for such calendar year. Amounts paid for service performed after December 31, 2003 are not treated as Annual Compensation.

Section 2.4 “Average Compensation” shall mean the sum, divided by three, of the total amount of Annual Compensation received by an Active Participant from the Company during the three calendar years out of the ten consecutive calendar years which yield the Active Participant the most Compensation including the calendar year in which an Active Participant terminates employment with the Company. A Disabled Participant’s Average Compensation shall be calculated using the ten consecutive calendar years that include the calendar years that his or her Disability commenced. In the case of an Active Participant who dies prior to attaining age 65, the deceased Participant’s Average Compensation shall be calculated using the ten consecutive calendar years that include the calendar year of the Participant’s death (or Disability, in the case of a Disabled Participant who dies). If a Participant is eligible to receive payments under this Supplemental Plan but does not have three consecutive calendar years of employment, then Average Compensation is the amount obtained by dividing the sum of the total amount of Annual

- 2 -

Compensation of such Active Participant by the actual number of calendar years of employment. However, the Committee may determine Average Compensation for the purposes of this Section 2.4 by any other methodology which it determines to be more appropriate under the facts and circumstances.

| (i) | the highest Annual Compensation (or, in the event in which a Participant has less than one calendar year of employment, the annualized amount of the Participant’s base pay plus incentive compensation under the Litton Industries, Inc. Performance Award Plan (or a similar plan) paid to, awarded to, or electively deferred by a Participant in any of the Participant’s last ten consecutive calendar years, including the calendar year in which a Change of Control occurs or

| (ii) | the Participant’s annualized base pay plus the maximum targeted incentive compensation for the calendar year in which a Change of Control occurs.

Section 2.5 “Base Compensation Amount” shall mean the applicable dollar amount on the date that the Active Participant terminates from employment with the Company, calculated as follows:

(a) $125,000, for the first twelve months beginning on the original effective date of this Supplemental Plan.

(c) In the case of a deceased or Disable Participant, the Base Compensation Amount shall be the dollar amount in effect under Section 2.5(a) or (b) for the earlier of the month in which the Participant died or became Disabled.

(a) Single Life Annuity. The Normal Form of Retirement Benefit shall be a single life annuity for a Participant who is unmarried at the time that payment of the Retirement Benefit commences. Under a single life annuity, a Retired Participant shall receive a monthly benefit for life equal to 1/12 of his or her Retirement Benefit and all payments shall cease upon the Retired Participant’s death.

(b) Joint and Survivor Annuity. If a Participant is married, the Normal Form of Retirement Benefit shall be a joint and survivor annuity (which shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of a single life annuity) for the benefit of the Participant’s spouse as of the date that

- 11 -

payment of the Retirement Benefit commences. Under the Normal Form, a Participant shall receive a monthly benefit for life and, upon the Participant’s death, the spouse, if living, shall receive a monthly benefit for life equal to 100 percent of the monthly benefit that was payable to the Participant.

(c) Deceased Participants. If a Participant dies while employed by the Company and is vested in a Retirement Benefit, the Normal Form of Retirement Benefit shall be either the benefit under Section 6.2(a) or (b), determined with regard to the Participant’s marital status on the date of death. If the Normal Form of Retirement Benefit for a deceased Participant is a joint and survivor annuity (which shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of a single life annuity), then the spouse’s benefit shall be calculated as if the Participant began receiving payment of the Retirement Benefit as a joint and 100-percent survivor annuity on the day preceding the commencement of Retirement Benefit payments to the spouse, and then died the following day. The Retirement Benefit shall be calculated on the basis of the age that the Participant would have attained as of the commencement date.

(d) Spousal Death Within Two Years After Retirement. If the spouse of a Participant who is married at the time payment of the Retirement Benefit commences pursuant to Section 6.2(b) should predecease such Participant not more than two (2) years after such Retirement Benefit commences, then commencing with the first Retirement Benefit payment payable as of the first day of the calendar month after the calendar month during which the death of the spouse occurred, such Retirement Benefit shall be converted to an annual Retirement Benefit computed pursuant to Section 6.2(a) in an amount equal to the amount of the annual Retirement Benefit the Participant would have received at the time of and based on his or her age at the date his or her Retirement Benefit commenced.

Section 6.3 Alternative Forms of Benefit.

(a) Election of Forms of Benefit. Prior to the commencement of payment of a Retirement Benefit, a Participant may file an election designating a payment form other than the Normal Form of Retirement Benefit. If a Participant elects an annuity form of payment of pension benefits under a plan sponsored by the Company that is intended to be tax-qualified under section 401(a) of the Code, such form of payment shall, except as noted in the following sentence, be available for the payment of Retirement Benefits under this Supplemental Plan. A joint and survivor annuity or a contingent annuity shall not be available under this Supplemental Plan with respect to anyone other than the Participant’s spouse as of the date that the Retirement Benefit commences.

(b) Additional Forms of Benefit. From time to time, the Committee may make other forms of payment of Retirement Benefits available in its sole discretion.

If a spouse Beneficiary dies prior to the cessation of the Death Benefit payments, then the remaining Death Benefits shall be paid to any Dependent Children. The amount of any Death Benefit payable to each of the Dependent Children on a monthly basis is the amount equal to the Death Benefit that would be payable to a
