The Corporation, which was incorporated in Maryland on August 29, 1994, to effect the combination of the businesses of Martin Marietta Corporation and Lockheed Corporation, is a diversified enterprise principally engaged in the conception, research, development, design, manufacture and integration of advanced technology products and services. The Corporation conducts its principal business through six major operating sectors: Space & Strategic Missiles; Aeronautics; Information & Technology Services; Electronics; Energy & Environment; and Tactical Systems. The Tactical Systems Sector consists of the defense electronics and systems integration businesses of the former Loral Corporation recently acquired by the Corporation (the "Loral Transaction"). See "Recent Developments--Loral Transaction." Those businesses currently are being conducted through Tactical Systems, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation. The Corporation, a Maryland corporation, and Tactical Systems, a New York corporation, maintain their principal executive offices at 6801 Rockledge Drive, Bethesda, Maryland 20817 (telephone number (301) 897-6000). RECENT DEVELOPMENTS LORAL TRANSACTION On January 7, 1996, the Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary, LAC Acquisition Corporation ("LAC"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Loral Merger Agreement") with Loral Corporation ("Loral") pursuant to which LAC agreed to commence a tender offer to purchase all the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Loral (together with the associated preferred stock purchase rights) for an aggregate consideration of $38 per share, net to the Seller in cash, without interest (the "Tender Offer"). The Tender Offer was made as part of a series of transactions that resulted in (i) the distribution, to stockholders of Loral immediately prior to the consummation of the Tender Offer, of shares of capital stock in Loral Space & Communications, Ltd. ("Loral SpaceCom"), a newly-formed Bermuda company, which now owns and manages substantially all of Loral's former space and satellite telecommunications interests, including Loral's direct and indirect interests in Globalstar, L.P. and Space Systems/Loral, Inc. and certain other assets of Loral, and (ii) the acquisition by the Corporation of Loral's defense electronics and systems integration businesses. In accordance with the terms of the Tender Offer and the Loral Merger Agreement, on April 23, 1996, LAC purchased approximately 94.5% of the outstanding shares of common stock of Loral. On April 29, 1996, in accordance with the terms of the Loral Merger Agreement, LAC merged with and into Loral and pursuant thereto each remaining share of common stock of Loral not owned by LAC was converted into the right to receive $38, each outstanding share of common stock of LAC was converted into shares of common stock of Loral, and Loral changed its name to Lockheed Martin Tactical Systems, Inc. As a result of these transactions, Tactical Systems became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation. S-2 In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loral Merger Agreement and the related agreements between the Corporation and Loral, the Corporation acquired shares of preferred stock of Loral SpaceCom that are convertible into 20% of Loral SpaceCom's common stock on a fully diluted basis. The Corporation's ownership of the preferred stock of Loral SpaceCom is subject to certain limitations and restrictions set forth in the terms and conditions of the preferred stock and in agreements between the Corporation and Loral SpaceCom. On April 18, 1996, in connection with the early termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act by the United States Federal Trade Commission (the "FTC"), the Corporation entered into an agreement containing consent order (the "Consent Agreement") with the FTC. The Consent Agreement obligates the Corporation to enter into a proposed consent order (the "Consent Order"), subject to a 60-day public notice and comment period and final approval of the Consent Order by the FTC. Under the Consent Agreement, the terms of the proposed Consent Order are applicable to the Corporation during the 60-day public review period and until the final Consent Order is entered or withdrawn. The terms of the proposed Consent Order provide for the Corporation to divest its systems engineering and technical services contract with the Federal Aviation Administration; prohibit the Corporation from providing certain technical services or information to Space Systems/Loral, a subsidiary of Loral SpaceCom; restrict participation and compensation of persons who serve as directors or officers of both the Corporation and Loral SpaceCom; limit the Corporation's ownership of Loral SpaceCom; and require "firewalls" to limit information flow about competitors' military aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles. In connection with the consummation of the Tender Offer and the transactions contemplated by the Loral Merger Agreement, the Corporation entered into revolving credit facilities (the "Credit Facilities") with a syndicate of commercial banks that provide for loans in an aggregate amount of up to $10 billion. The Credit Facilities consist of a 364-day unsecured revolving credit facility in the amount of $5 billion and a 5-year unsecured revolving credit facility in the amount of $5 billion. The funds for the consummation of the Tender Offer and the transactions contemplated by the Loral Merger Agreement were provided through the issuance of commercial paper and through borrowings under the Credit Facilities. Management of the Corporation is in the process of evaluating potential near-term actions that may permit the Corporation to reduce its long-term debt, including but not limited to the disposition of non-core businesses and surplus properties. RECENT FINANCIAL RESULTS The Corporation recently announced the following financial results for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and for the comparable period in 1995:
(UNAUDITED) THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, --------------------- 1996 1995 ---------- ---------- (IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS) Net sales............................................. $ 5,109 $ 5,644 Earnings from operations.............................. 472 290(a) Net earnings.......................................... 272 137(a) Earnings per common share, assuming full dilution..... $ 1.22 $ .62(a)
- -------- (a)Amounts for 1995 include a pretax charge of $165 million ($110 million after tax, or $.50 per common share, assuming full dilution) for merger related expenses. S-3 INTERNAL REORGANIZATION On January 28, 1996, the Corporation consummated an internal reorganization pursuant to which its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Martin Marietta Technologies, Inc., Martin Marietta Corporation, Lockheed Sanders Corporation, Lockheed Missiles and Space Company, Inc. and Lockheed Corporation, were merged in a series of transactions into the Corporation. As a result, the businesses previously conducted by those former subsidiaries and the Corporation now are conducted by the Corporation. USE OF PROCEEDS The net proceeds from the sale of the Offered Debt Securities, estimated to be $ , will be used to repay indebtedness incurred in connection with the consummation of the Loral Transaction, for the working capital requirements of the Corporation and its subsidiaries, and for general corporate purposes. The indebtedness to be repaid represents a portion of the indebtedness incurred under the Credit Facilities and upon the issuance of commercial paper, which currently bear interest at a weighted average rate of 5.57% per annum with a weighted average maturity of 33 days. CAPITALIZATION The following table sets forth the consolidated capitalization of the Corporation (i) as of December 31, 1995, (ii) as adjusted to reflect the consummation of the Loral Transaction on a pro forma basis, and (iii) as adjusted to reflect on a pro forma basis the issuance of the Securities offered hereby and the application of the estimated proceeds therefrom to repay a portion of the indebtedness incurred in connection with the Loral Transaction.

S-4 UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements have been prepared by the Corporation's management from the historical consolidated financial statements of the Corporation and of Tactical Systems (formerly Loral Corporation and Subsidiaries--Retained Business). The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statement of earnings reflects adjustments as if the Loral Transaction had occurred on January 1, 1995. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet reflects adjustments as if the Loral Transaction had occurred on December 31, 1995. See "--Note 1-- Basis of Presentation." The unaudited pro forma adjustments described in the accompanying notes are based upon preliminary estimates and certain assumptions that management of the Corporation believes are reasonable in the circumstances. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements are not necessarily indicative of financial position or results of operations that would have resulted if the Loral Transaction had occurred on the applicable dates indicated above. Moreover, they are not intended to be indicative of future results of operations or financial position. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements of the Corporation and related notes thereto, and the historical financial statements of Tactical Systems and related notes thereto, both of which are incorporated by reference in the Prospectus.

See accompanying notes to unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements. S-6 NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited pro forma combined condensed statement of earnings presents the historical results of operations of the Corporation and Tactical Systems for the year ended December 31, 1995, with pro forma adjustments as if the Loral Transaction had occurred on January 1, 1995. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet presents the historical balance sheets of the Corporation and Tactical Systems as of December 31, 1995, with pro forma adjustments as if the Loral Transaction had been consummated as of December 31, 1995, in a transaction accounted for as a purchase in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Certain reclassifications have been made to the historical financial statements of the Corporation and Tactical Systems to conform to the unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statement presentation. 2. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS The following adjustments are provided to reflect the Loral Transaction on a pro forma basis (in millions): (a) To record the consideration assumed to be exchanged for Tactical Systems (financed by the issuance of debt): Obligation for all of the Loral common shares....................... $6,884 Estimated transaction costs......................................... 125 ------ $7,009 ======
(b) To adjust the assets and liabilities of Tactical Systems to their estimated fair values (such estimated fair values are subject to possible adjustment from future valuation analyses): Net assets of Tactical Systems at December 31, 1995................. $1,716 Fair value adjustments: Intangible assets related to contracts and programs acquired...... 700 Prepaid pension assets............................................ (145) Other current liabilities......................................... (830) Post-retirement benefit liabilities............................... 107 Deferred income tax liabilities................................... (264) Cost in excess of net assets acquired............................. 5,725 ------ $7,009 ======
(c) To record the Corporation's $612 million investment in Loral SpaceCom financed by the issuance of debt. (d) To record the assumed issuance of debt to finance the Loral Transaction: Long-term debt obligations.......................................... $7,000 Short-term debt obligations......................................... 621 ------ $7,621 ======
(e) To eliminate intercompany sales and cost of sales. No adjustments have been made to eliminate the related intercompany profit in ending inventories and the net intercompany receivables and payables at December 31, 1995 as such amounts are not material. S-7 (f) To record the amortization of estimated intangible assets related to contracts and programs acquired (over an estimated life of 12 years) and estimated cost in excess of net assets acquired (over an estimated life of 40 years), net of the state income tax benefit on the net pro forma adjustments. (g) To record estimated interest expense (at a blended interest rate approximating 6.3%) resulting from the assumed issuance of debt obligations. (h) To record the federal income tax effect, using a 35% statutory rate, on the net pro forma adjustments. The accompanying unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements do not include the effects of any estimated transition or restructuring costs which may be incurred in connection with integrating the operations of Tactical Systems into the Corporation. It is not feasible at this time to estimate these costs. Similarly, no effects for changes in costs related to Tactical Systems employee pension and post-retirement benefits have been included as such changes cannot be estimated at this time.

The Corporation is engaged in a number of classified programs that cannot be referred to specifically, but are included in its consolidated financial statements. The nature of and business risks associated with classified programs do not differ materially from those of the Corporation's other government programs and products. Approximately 69% of the Corporation's sales in 1995, excluding foreign military sales, were to the United States government. During that period, sales to foreign governments, including sales made through the United States government, accounted for approximately 13% of revenues and sales to commercial customers accounted for approximately 18% of revenues. BUSINESS OF TACTICAL SYSTEMS The businesses acquired by the Corporation in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Loral Merger Agreement now constitute the sixth operating sector of the Corporation, Tactical Systems.

The Corporation conducts its principal business through six major operating sectors: Space & Strategic Missiles; Aeronautics; Information & Technology Services; Electronics; Energy & Environment; and Tactical Systems. The Tactical Systems Sector consists of the businesses acquired by the Corporation on April 23, 1996, in connection with the acquisition of Loral Corporation. The Corporation's and Tactical Systems' principal executive offices are located at 6801 Rockledge Drive, Bethesda, Maryland 20817. The telephone number of the Corporation and Tactical Systems is (301) 897-6000. USE OF PROCEEDS Except as otherwise stated in the Prospectus Supplement in respect of which this Prospectus is being delivered, the net proceeds from the sale of the Debt Securities offered by the Corporation will be added to the general funds of the Corporation and will be available to repay debt incurred in connection with the acquisition of Tactical Systems and for the general corporate purposes of the Corporation and its subsidiaries, which may include but are not limited to working capital, capital expenditures, consolidation expenses, business acquisitions and the refinancing of indebtedness. RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES The following table sets forth the ratio of earnings to fixed charges and the ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends for each of the last five fiscal years.
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31 ------------------------ 1995 1994 1993 1992 1991 ---- ---- ---- ---- ---- (UNAUDITED) Ratio of earnings to fixed charges..................... 4.2 5.6 4.8 5.3 4.6 Ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends(a).......................... 3.3 4.4 4.0 5.3 4.6
- -------- (a) Shares of preferred stock were issued on April 2, 1993. Prior to that date no shares of preferred stock were outstanding. On a pro forma basis, assuming the transactions contemplated by the Loral Merger Agreement had occurred on January 1, 1995, the unaudited ratios of earnings to fixed charges and earnings to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends for the year ended December 31, 1995, would have been 2.0 and 1.8, respectively. For purposes of computing the ratio of earnings to fixed charges, earnings represent earnings from continuing operations before income taxes plus interest expense on indebtedness, amortization of debt discount and premium, and the portion of rent expense deemed representative of an interest factor, less undistributed earnings of unconsolidated subsidiaries. Fixed charges include interest on indebtedness (whether expensed or capitalized), amortization of debt discount and premium, and the portion of rent expense deemed representative of an interest factor. Combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends include fixed charges as described above and preferred stock dividends on a pretax basis. 4 DESCRIPTION OF DEBT SECURITIES The following description of the Debt Securities sets forth certain general terms and provisions of the Debt Securities and the Guarantees to which any Prospectus Supplement may relate. The particular terms of the Debt Securities offered by any Prospectus Supplement (the "Offered Debt Securities"), including the nature of any variation from the following general provisions applicable to the Offered Debt Securities, will be described in the Prospectus Supplement relating to the Offered Debt Securities. The Offered Debt Securities are to be issued in one or more series under an indenture (the "Indenture") between the Corporation, Tactical Systems, as Guarantor, and First Trust of Illinois, National Association, as Trustee (the "Trustee"), a copy of which is filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. The following summaries of certain provisions of the Indenture do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to, all provisions of the Indenture, including definitions of certain terms. Provisions of or defined terms in the Indenture that are used in this Prospectus are incorporated by reference. GENERAL The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness that may be issued thereunder and provides that Debt Securities may be issued in one or more series in an aggregate principal amount which may be authorized from time to time by the Corporation. The Debt Securities will be unsecured obligations of the Corporation and will rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Corporation. Payment of principal of (premium, if any) and interest, if any, on the Debt Securities will be guaranteed by Tactical Systems. See "Description of Debt Securities--Guaranties." The Guarantor also is guarantor of the Corporation's obligations under the principal revolving credit facilities of the Corporation. Reference is made to the Prospectus Supplement for the following terms of the Offered Debt Securities: (1) the title of the Offered Debt Securities; (2) the price (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount thereof) at which the Offered Debt Securities will be issued; (3) any limit on the aggregate principal amount of the Offered Debt Securities or the series of which the Offered Debt Securities are a part; (4) the date or dates (or manner of determining the same) on which the Offered Debt Securities will mature; (5) the rate or rates (which may be fixed or variable) per annum (or the method or methods by which such rate or rates will be determined) at which the Offered Debt Securities will bear interest, if any, and the date or dates from which such interest will accrue; (6) the date or dates on which interest, if any, will be payable and the record dates for such interest payment dates; (7) if the trustee in respect of the Offered Debt Securities is other than the Trustee (or any successor thereto), the identity of the trustee; (8) the place or places where the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on the Offered Debt Securities will be payable and each office or agency where the Offered Debt Securities may be presented for transfer or exchange; (9) any mandatory or optional sinking fund or purchase fund or similar provision and the terms and conditions thereof; (10) any provisions relating to the date after which, the circumstances under which, the price or prices at which, and the currency or currency unit in which, the Offered Debt Securities may, pursuant to any optional or mandatory redemption or conversion provisions, be redeemed or converted at the option of the Corporation or of the Holder and certain other terms and provisions of such optional or mandatory redemption or conversion; (11) if the Offered Debt Securities are denominated in other than United States dollars, the currency or currencies (including composite currencies) in which the Offered Debt Securities are denominated; (12) the index, if any, used to determine the amount of payments of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, on the Offered Debt Securities; (13) if payments of principal (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, in respect of the Offered Debt Securities are to be made in a currency other than United States dollars or the amount of such payments are to be determined with reference to an index based on a currency or currencies other than that in which the Offered Debt Securities are denominated, the currency or currencies (including composite currencies) in which such payments are to be made, or the manner in which such amounts are to be determined, respectively; (14) if the amount payable upon acceleration of the Offered Debt Securities is other than the full principal amount, the portion of the principal amount payable upon acceleration; (15) any provisions relating to the conversion of Offered Debt Securities into 5 Debt Securities of another series; (16) any provisions restricting defeasance of the Offered Debt Securities; (17) if any additional or special events of default are applicable to the Offered Debt Securities, the terms and conditions of such events of default; (18) if the Offered Debt Securities will be issued, in whole or in part, in the form of one or more temporary or permanent Global Securities, the identity of the depositary for such Global Securities and certain other terms and conditions relating to the Global Securities; and (19) any other terms of the Offered Debt Securities and the Guarantees not inconsistent with the provisions of the Indenture. Unless otherwise indicated in the Prospectus Supplement in respect of which this Prospectus is being delivered, principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on the Offered Debt Securities (other than Offered Debt Securities issued as Global Securities) will be payable, and the Offered Debt Securities (other than Offered Debt Securities issued as Global Securities) will be exchangeable and transfers thereof will be registrable, at the office of the Trustee and at any other office maintained from time to time by the Corporation for such purpose, provided that, at the option of the Corporation, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the holder as it appears in the register of the Offered Debt Securities. Unless otherwise indicated in the Prospectus Supplement relating thereto, the Offered Debt Securities will be issued only in fully registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof. For certain information about Debt Securities issued in global form, see "Description of Debt Securities--Global Securities." The Corporation may charge a reasonable fee for any transfer or exchange of the Offered Debt Securities and may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. Debt Securities bearing no interest or interest at a rate that at the time of issuance is below the prevailing market rate will be sold at a discount below their stated principal amount. One or more series of Debt Securities may be floating rate Debt Securities, exchangeable for fixed rate Debt Securities. Special United States federal income tax considerations applicable to any such discounted or floating rate Debt Securities or to certain Debt Securities issued at par which are treated as having been issued at a discount for United States federal income tax purposes will be described in the Prospectus Supplement in respect of which this Prospectus is being delivered, if applicable. Debt Securities may be issued, from time to time, with the principal amount (and premium, if any) payable on the applicable principal payment date, or the amount of interest, if any, payable on the applicable interest payment date, to be determined by reference to one or more currency exchange rates, commodity prices, equity indices or other factors. In such cases, Holders may receive a principal amount (and premium, if any) on any principal payment date, or a payment of interest, if any, on any interest payment date, that is greater than or less than the amount of principal (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, payable on such dates, depending upon the value on such dates of the applicable currency, commodity, equity index or other factor. Information as to the methods for determining the amount of principal (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, payable on any date, the currencies, commodities, equity indices or the other factors to which the amount payable on such date is linked and certain additional tax considerations applicable to the Offered Debt Securities will be set forth in the Prospectus Supplement in respect of which this Prospectus is being delivered, if applicable. All monies paid by the Corporation to the Trustee or a Paying Agent for the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Offered Debt Security that remain unclaimed at the end of two years will be repaid to the Corporation, unless otherwise prohibited by mandatory provisions of applicable escheat or abandoned or unclaimed property law, and the Holder of such Debt Security will thereafter look only to the Corporation for payment thereof. The Indenture does not limit the amount of additional unsecured indebtedness that the Corporation, the Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries may incur. Unless otherwise specified in the resolutions or any supplemental indenture establishing the terms of the Offered Debt Securities, the terms of the Offered Debt Securities or the covenants contained in the Indenture do not afford holders of the Offered Debt Securities protection in the event of a highly leveraged or other similar transaction involving the Corporation, the Guarantor 6 or any of their Subsidiaries, or any other transaction resulting in a decline in the ratings on or credit quality of the Offered Debt Securities, that may adversely affect Securityholders. See "Description of Debt Securities--Certain Covenants." GUARANTEES Tactical Systems will guarantee the due and punctual payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, in respect of the Debt Securities, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether by declaration thereof or otherwise. The Guarantor will be subrogated to all rights of the Holders of the Debt Securities against the Corporation in respect of any amounts paid by the Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture; provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce, or to receive any payments arising out of or based upon, such right of subrogation until the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on all Offered Debt Securities has been paid. The obligations of the Guarantor are limited to the largest amount that will result in the obligations of the Guarantor under the Guarantees not being subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of any applicable state law. Although Holders of the Offered Debt Securities will be direct creditors of the Guarantor by virtue of the Guarantees, existing or future creditors could attempt to avoid or subordinate the Guarantees, in whole or in part, under applicable fraudulent conveyance laws. In the event that any of the Guarantees are voided as a fraudulent conveyance or held unenforceable for any other reason, the claims of the Holders of such Offered Debt Securities against the Guarantor would be subject to the prior payment of all liabilities of the Guarantor. GLOBAL SECURITIES Debt Securities of any series may be issued, in whole or in part, in the form of one or more Global Securities that will be deposited with a depositary (the "Depositary") or with a nominee for a Depositary identified in the Prospectus Supplement relating to such series. Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Debt Securities in definitive registered form, a Global Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of any successor. The specific terms of the depositary arrangement with respect to any series of Debt Securities to be represented by a Global Security will be described in the Prospectus Supplement relating to such series. The Corporation, however, anticipates that the provisions set forth below generally will apply to such depositary arrangements. Upon the issuance of a Global Security, the Depositary will credit, on its book-entry registration and transfer system, the respective principal amounts of the Debt Securities represented by such Global Security to the accounts of persons that have accounts with such Depositary ("participants"). The accounts to be credited shall be designated by any underwriters or agents participating in the distribution of such Debt Securities or by the Corporation if the Debt Securities are offered and sold directly by the Corporation. Ownership of beneficial interest in a Global Security will be limited to participants or persons that hold interests through participants, but the Corporation has no obligations to any persons that hold interests through participants. Ownership of beneficial interests in such Global Security will be shown on, and the transfer of that ownership will be effected only through, records maintained by the Depositary for such Global Security (with respect to interests of participants) or by participants or persons that hold through participants (with respect to interests of persons other than participants). The laws of some states require that certain purchasers of securities take physical delivery of the securities into definitive form. Such limits and laws may impair the ability to transfer beneficial interest in a Global Security. As long as the Depositary or its nominee is the registered owner of such Global Security, the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner or holder of the Debt Securities represented by the Global Security for all purposes under the Indenture. Except as set forth below, owners of beneficial 7 interests in a Global Security will not be entitled to have the Debt Securities represented by such Global Security registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of such Debt Securities in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders thereof under the Indenture. Payments of principal (and premium, if any) and interest, if any, on Debt Securities represented by a Global Security registered in the name of a Depositary or its nominee will be made to such Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of such Global Security. Neither the Corporation, the Guarantor, the Trustee, any Paying Agent nor the Security Registrar for such Debt Securities will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in such Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. The Corporation expects that the Depositary for any Debt Securities represented by a Global Security, upon receipt of any payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest, if any, in respect of a permanent Global Security will, except as provided below, immediately credit participants' accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the principal amount of such Global Security as shown on the records of the Depositary. The Corporation also expects that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in such Global Security held through such participants will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with the securities held for the accounts of customers registered in "street names" and will be the responsibility of such participants. If the Depositary for any Debt Securities represented by a Global Security is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary and a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Corporation within 90 days, the Corporation will issue Debt Securities in definitive form in exchange for such Global Security. In addition, the Corporation may at any time and in its sole discretion determine not to have any of the Debt Securities of a series represented by one or more Global Securities and, in such event, will issue in exchange therefor Debt Securities of such series in definitive form. Further, if the Corporation so specifies with respect to the Debt Securities of a series, an owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Security representing Debt Securities of that series may, on terms acceptable to the Corporation and the Depositary for such Global Securities, receive Debt Securities of such series in a definitive form. In any such instance, an owner of a beneficial interest in a Global Security will be entitled to physical delivery in definitive form of Debt Securities of the series represented by the Global Security equal in principal amount to such beneficial interest and to have such Debt Securities registered in its name. Debt Securities of such series so issued in definitive form will be issued in denominations, unless otherwise specified by the Corporation, of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof if the Debt Securities of such series are denominated in United States dollars. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Debt Securities of any series may be amended or supplemented without notice but with the written consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Debt Securities of each affected series and such Holders may waive compliance by the Corporation or the Guarantor of any provisions of the Indenture or the Debt Securities or the related Guarantees; provided, however, that no such modification, amendment or waiver may, without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Debt Security affected thereby, (a) reduce the amount of Debt Securities of any series whose holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver, (b) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Debt Security, (c) reduce the principal of (or premium, if any) or extend the fixed maturity of any Debt Security, (d) reduce the portion of the principal amount of a Discounted Security payable upon acceleration of its maturity, or (e) make any Debt Security payable in a currency or currency unit other than that stated in the Debt Security. Any past default or compliance with any provisions may be waived with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Debt Securities of the affected series, except a default in payment of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, or in respect of other provisions requiring the consent of the Holder of each such Debt Security of that series in order to amend. 8 Without the consent of any Securityholder, the Corporation and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Debt Securities of any series without notice (a) to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, (b) to provide for uncertificated Debt Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Debt Securities, (c) to evidence the succession of another corporation to the Corporation or the Guarantor and to provide for the assumption of the Corporation's or the Guarantor's obligations under the Debt Securities or the Guarantees, as the case may be, and the Indenture by a successor, (d) to appoint a trustee other than the Trustee (or any successor thereto) as trustee in respect of one or more series of Debt Securities, (e) to add, change or eliminate provisions of the Indenture as shall be necessary or desirable in accordance with any amendment to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, (f) to change or eliminate any of the provisions of the Indenture; provided, however, that any such change or elimination shall become effective only when there is no outstanding Debt Security of any series created prior to the execution of such amendment or supplement that is entitled to the benefit of such provision, or (g) to make any change that does not materially adversely affect the rights of any Securityholder of that series. Without the consent of any Securityholder, the Trustee may waive compliance with any provisions of the Indenture or the Debt Securities if the waiver does not materially adversely affect the rights of any Securityholder. CERTAIN COVENANTS Unless otherwise specified in the Board Resolution or Resolutions or any supplemental indenture establishing the terms of the Debt Securities of any series, the terms of the Debt Securities of any series or the covenants contained in the Indenture do not afford holders of Debt Securities protection in the event of a highly leveraged or other similar transaction involving the Corporation, the Guarantor or any of their subsidiaries, or any other transaction resulting in a decline in the ratings on or credit quality of the Debt Securities, that may adversely affect Securityholders. If the Offered Debt Securities contain, or a future supplemental indenture contains, covenants to afford Securityholders protection in the event of a highly leveraged or similar transaction or any other transaction, the Prospectus Supplement relating to the Offered Debt Securities (or an applicable pricing supplement) will provide a brief description of such protective covenants. The Indenture does not limit the amount of additional unsecured indebtedness that the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries may incur. The following description sets forth certain covenants imposed on the Corporation and the Guarantor by the Indenture. In the event the covenants are varied or supplemented in the Board Resolution or Resolutions or any supplemental indenture establishing the terms of the Debt Securities of any series, the Prospectus Supplement or Pricing Supplement (if applicable) will include a description of such provisions. Certain Definitions. For purposes of the covenants included in the Indenture, the following terms shall have the meanings provided below.

A lease obligation shall be counted only once even if the Guarantor or the Corporation and one or more of their Subsidiaries may be responsible for the obligation. "Consolidated Net Tangible Assets" means total assets less (1) total current liabilities (excluding any Debt which, at the option of the borrower, is renewable or extendable to a term exceeding 12 months and which is included in current liabilities and further excluding any deferred income taxes which are included in current liabilities) and (2) goodwill, patents and trademarks, all as reflected in the Corporation's then most recent consolidated balance sheet.

"Restricted Subsidiary" means a Subsidiary that has substantially all its assets located in, or carries on substantially all its business in, the United States and that owns a Principal Property. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, a Subsidiary shall not be a Restricted Subsidiary during such period of time as it (or any corporation (other than the Corporation) or other entity that, directly or indirectly, beneficially owns a majority of the Voting Stock of the Subsidiary) has shares of capital stock registered under the Exchange Act or it files reports and other information with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. "Sale-Leaseback Transaction" means an arrangement whereby the Guarantor, the Corporation or a Restricted Subsidiary now owns or hereafter acquires a Principal Property, transfers it to a person and contemporaneously leases it back from the person.

Limitations on Liens. Unless otherwise specified in the Prospectus Supplement in respect of which this Prospectus is being delivered and subject to the following two sentences, the Corporation will not, and the Corporation will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, as security for any Debt, incur a Lien on any Restricted Property, unless the Corporation or such Restricted Subsidiary secures or causes to be secured any outstanding Debt Securities equally and ratably with all Debt secured by such Lien. This restriction will not apply to, among other things, certain Liens (i) existing at the time a corporation becomes a Restricted Subsidiary; (ii) existing at the time of the acquisition of the Restricted Property; (iii) securing all or any part of the purchase price of property upon the acquisition of such property by the Corporation, the Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary or securing any Debt incurred or guaranteed by the Corporation, the Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary prior to, at the time of, or within one year after the later of the acquisition, completion of construction (including any improvements on an existing property) or commencement of full operation of such property, which Debt is incurred or guaranteed for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price thereof or construction or improvements thereof, and which Debt may be in the form of obligations incurred in connection with industrial revenue bonds or similar financings and letters of credit issued in connection therewith; (iv) securing Debt of a Restricted Subsidiary owed to the Corporation, the Guarantor or another Restricted Subsidiary; (v) existing at the time a corporation or other entity merges into, consolidates with or enters into a share exchange with the Corporation, the Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary or transfers or leases all or substantially all its assets to the Corporation or a Restricted Subsidiary; (vi) in favor of any customer (including any government or governmental authority) to secure partial, progress, advance or other payments or performance pursuant to any contract or statute or to secure any related indebtedness or to secure Debt guaranteed by a government or governmental authority; (vii) arising pursuant to any order of attachment, distraint or similar legal process in connection with court proceedings so long as the execution or other enforcement thereof is effectively stayed and the claims secured thereby are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings or the lien is a materialman's, suppliers', tax or other similar Lien and arising in the ordinary course of business securing obligations which are not overdue or are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings; or (viii) as to any particular series of Debt Securities, that extend, renew or replace in whole or in part a Lien permitted by any of the foregoing clauses or existing on the date that Debt Securities of such series were first issued. In addition and notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions, the Corporation, the Guarantor and any of their Restricted Subsidiaries may, without securing the Debt Securities, incur a Lien that otherwise would be subject to the restrictions, provided that after giving effect to such Lien the aggregate amount of all Debt secured by Liens that otherwise would be prohibited plus all Attributable Debt in respect of sale-leaseback transactions that otherwise would be prohibited by the covenant limiting sale-leaseback transactions described below would not exceed 10% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets. Limitations on Sale-Leaseback Transactions. Unless otherwise specified in the Prospectus Supplement in respect of which this Prospectus is being delivered and subject to the following two sentences, the Corporation and the Guarantor will not, and neither will permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, sell or transfer a Principal 11 Property and contemporaneously lease it back, except a lease for a period of three years or less. Notwithstanding the foregoing restriction, the Corporation, the Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary may sell or transfer a Principal Property and lease it back for a longer period if (i) the lease is between the Corporation and the Guarantor, the Corporation and a Restricted Subsidiary, the Guarantor and a Restricted Subsidiary, or between Restricted Subsidiaries; (ii) the Corporation, the Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary would be entitled, pursuant to the provisions set forth above under the caption "Limitations on Liens," to create a Lien on the property to be leased securing Debt in an amount at least equal in amount to the Attributable Debt (as herein defined) in respect of the sale-leaseback transaction without equally and ratably securing the outstanding Debt Securities; (iii) the Corporation owns or acquires other property which will be made a Principal Property and is determined by the Board of Directors of the Corporation or the Guarantor to have a fair value equal to or greater than the Attributable Debt incurred; or (iv) the Corporation, the Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary makes an optional prepayment in cash of its Debt at least equal in amount to the Attributable Debt for the lease, the prepayment is made within 120 days, the Debt prepaid is not owned by the Corporation, the Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary, and the Debt prepaid was long-term debt at the time it was created. In addition and notwithstanding the foregoing restrictions, the Corporation and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may, without securing the Debt Securities, enter into a sale-leaseback transaction that otherwise would be subject to the restrictions, provided that after giving effect to such sale-leaseback transaction the aggregate amount of all Debt secured by Liens that otherwise would be prohibited by the covenant limiting Liens described above plus all Attributable Debt in respect of sale-leaseback transactions that otherwise would be prohibited would not exceed 10% of Consolidated Net Tangible Assets. Consolidation, Merger, Sale of Assets. Neither the Corporation nor the Guarantor shall consolidate with or merge into, or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to, another corporation, unless (1) the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation assumes by supplemental indenture all of the obligations of the Corporation or the Guarantor, as the case may be, under the Guarantees or the Debt Securities and the Indenture, (2) immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no Event of Default, and no circumstance which, after notice or lapse of time or both, would become an Event of Default, shall have happened and be continuing, and (3) the Corporation or the Guarantor, as the case may be, shall have delivered to the trustee an officers' certificate and an opinion of counsel each stating that the consolidation, merger or transfer and the supplemental indenture comply with the Indenture. When a successor corporation, trustee, paying agent or registrar assumes all of the obligations of its predecessor under the Debt Securities and the Indenture, the predecessor will be released from those obligations. DEFAULT AND REMEDIES An Event of Default under the Indenture in respect of any series of Debt Securities is: default for 30 days in payment of interest on the Debt Securities of that series; default in payment of principal on the Debt Securities of that series; failure by the Corporation or the Guarantor for 90 days after notice to it to comply with any of its other agreements in the Indenture for the benefit of Holders of Debt Securities of that series; certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency involving the Corporation or the Guarantor; and any other Event of Default specifically provided for by the terms of such series, as described in the related Prospectus Supplement. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Debt Securities of the affected series may declare the Debt Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately, but under certain conditions such acceleration may be rescinded by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Debt Securities of the affected series. Securityholders may not enforce the Indenture or the Debt Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture or the Debt Securities unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Debt Securities of any series may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power under the Indenture in respect of that series. The Indenture provides that the Trustee will, within 90 days after the occurrence of any default with respect to the Debt Securities of any particular series, give to the Holders of such Debt Securities notice of the default if known 12 to it, unless the default shall have been cured or waived. The Trustee may withhold from Securityholders notice of any continuing default (except a default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding such notice is in the interests of such Holders. A director, officer, employee or stockholder (other than the Corporation) shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Corporation or the Guarantor under the Debt Securities or the Guarantees or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Debt Security, each Securityholder waives and releases all such claims and liability. This waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Debt Securities and the execution of the Guarantees. DEFEASANCE The Indenture provides, unless such provision is made inapplicable to the Debt Securities of any series issued pursuant to the Indenture, that the Corporation may, subject to certain conditions described below, discharge its indebtedness, its obligations and the obligations of the Guarantor, or certain of their obligations under the Indenture in respect of Debt Securities of a series by depositing funds or, in the case of Debt Securities payable in United States dollars, U.S. Government Obligations (as defined in the Indenture), or Debt Securities of the same series with the Trustee. The Indenture provides that (1) the Corporation and the Guarantor will be discharged from any obligation to comply with certain restrictive covenants of the Indenture and certain other obligations under the Indenture and any noncompliance with such obligations shall not be an Event of Default in respect of the series of Debt Securities or (2) provided that 91 days have passed from the date of the deposit referred to below and certain specified Events of Default have not occurred, the Corporation and the Guarantor will be discharged from any and all obligations in respect of the series of Debt Securities (except for certain obligations, including obligations to register the transfer and exchange of the Debt Securities of such series, to replace mutilated, lost or stolen Debt Securities of such series, to maintain paying agencies and to cause money to be held in trust), in either case upon the deposit with the Trustee, in trust, of money, Debt Securities of the same series, and/or U.S. Government Obligations that, through the payment of interest and principal in accordance with their terms, will provide money in an amount sufficient to pay the principal of and each installment of interest on the series of Debt Securities on the date when such payments become due in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the series of Debt Securities. In the event of any such defeasance under clause (1) above, the obligations of the Corporation under the Indenture and the Debt Securities of the affected series, other than with respect to the covenants relating to limitations on liens and sale-leaseback transactions and reporting thereon, and covenants relating to consolidations, mergers and transfers of all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation, shall remain in full force and effect. In the event of defeasance and discharge under clause (2) above, the holders of Debt Securities of the affected series are entitled to look only to the trust fund created by such deposit for payment. In the case of the Corporation's discharge from any and all obligations in respect of a series of Debt Securities as described in clause (2) above, the trust may be established only if, among other things, the Corporation shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that, if the subject Debt Securities are then listed on a national securities exchange, such deposit, defeasance or discharge will not cause the Debt Securities to be delisted. Under Federal income tax law as of the date of this Prospectus, defeasance and discharge under clause (2) above may be treated as a taxable exchange of the related Debt Securities. As a consequence, each holder of such Debt Securities might be required to recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the Holder's cost or other tax basis for the Debt Securities and the value of the Holder's interest in the trust. Prospective investors are urged to consult their own tax advisors as to the specific consequences of such a deposit and discharge, including the applicability and effect of tax laws other than the Federal income tax law. Pursuant to the escrow or trust agreements that the Corporation may execute in connection with the defeasance of all or certain of its obligations under the Indenture as provided above, the Corporation from time to time may elect to substitute U.S. Government Obligations or Debt Securities of the same series for any or all of the U.S. Government Obligations deposited with the Trustee; provided that the money, U.S. Government Obligations, and/or Debt Securities of the same series in trust following such substitution or substitutions will be sufficient, through the payment of interest and principal in accordance with their terms, to pay the principal of 13 and each installment of interest on the series of Debt Securities on the date when such payments become due in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the series of Debt Securities. The escrow trust agreements also may enable the Corporation (1) to direct the Trustee to invest any money received by the Trustee on the U.S. Government Obligations comprising the trust in additional U.S. Government Obligations, and (2) to withdraw monies or U.S. Government Obligations from the trust from time to time; provided that the money and/or U.S. Government Obligations in trust following such withdrawal will be sufficient, through the payment of interest and principal in accordance with their terms, to pay the principal of and each installment of interest on the series of Debt Securities on the date when such payments become due in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the series of Debt Securities. GOVERNING LAW The Debt Securities and the Indenture will be governed by the laws of the State of Maryland. TRUSTEE First Trust of Illinois, National Association from time to time performs other services for the Corporation in the normal course of business and is trustee under other indentures pursuant to which debt securities of the Corporation and Tactical Systems have been issued.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS. The Corporation's By-Laws provide that the Corporation shall indemnify and advance expenses to its currently acting and its former directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Maryland General Corporation Law, and that the Corporation may indemnify and advance expenses to its officers to the same extent as its directors and to such further extent as is consistent with law. The Maryland General Corporation Law provides that a corporation may indemnify any director made a party to any proceeding by reason of service in that capacity unless it is established that: (1) the act or omission of the director was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and (a) was committed in bad faith or (b) was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty, or (2) the director actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services, or (3) in the case of any criminal proceeding, the director had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. The statute permits Maryland corporations to indemnify its officers, employees or agents to the same extent as its directors and to such further extent as is consistent with law. In addition to indemnification, the officers and directors of the Corporation are covered by certain insurance policies maintained by the Corporation. The Corporation's Charter provides that, to the fullest extent that limitations on the liability of directors and officers are permitted by the Maryland General Corporation Law, no director or officer of the Corporation, shall have any liability to the Corporation or any of its stockholders for monetary damages. The Maryland General Corporation Law provides that a corporation's charter may include a provision which restricts or limits the liability of its directors or officers to the corporation or its stockholders for money damages except: (1) to the extent that it is proved that the person actually received an improper benefit or profit in money, property or services, for the amount of the benefit or profit in money, property or services actually received, or (2) to the extent that a judgment or other final adjudication adverse to the person is entered in a proceeding based on a finding in the proceeding that the person's action, or failure to act, was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and was material to the cause of action adjudicated in the proceeding. In situations to which the Charter provision applies, the remedies available to the Corporation or a stockholder are limited to equitable remedies such as injunction or rescission. This provision would not, in the opinion of the Commission, eliminate or limit the liability of directors and officers under the federal securities law. Sections 721-726 of the New York Business Corporation Law contain non- exclusive provisions for indemnification of officers and directors of a corporation under certain specified conditions, including in part: (a) indemnification against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement of, and reasonable expenses incurred as a result of, an action or proceeding, whether civil or criminal, threatened or brought against such person (other II-1 than by one bringing an action by or in the right of the corporation, but including an action by or in the right of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise which such person served in any capacity at the request of the corporation) if such person acted in good faith, for a purpose which he reasonably believed to be in, or, in the case of service for any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, and, in criminal actions or proceedings, in addition, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful; (b) indemnification against amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses incurred by such person in connection with the defense or settlement of an action by or in the right of the corporation if such director or officer acted, in good faith, for a purpose which he reasonably believed to be in, or, in the case of service for any other corporation or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of (1) a threatened action, or a pending action which is settled or otherwise disposed of, or (2) any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court, or if no action was brought, a court of competent jurisdiction, determines the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity; and (c) notwithstanding the failure of a corporation to provide indemnification, indemnification pursuant to court order. Article Ninth of Tactical Systems' Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that any person made a party to any action, suit or proceeding by reason of the fact that he, his testator or intestate, is or was a director, officer or employee of Tactical Systems or of any corporation for which he served as such at the request of Tactical Systems, shall be indemnified by Tactical Systems against the reasonable expenses, including attorneys' fees, actually and necessarily incurred by him in connection with the defense of such action, suit or proceeding, or in connection with any appeal therein, except in relation to matters as to which it shall be adjudged in such action, suit or proceeding that such officer, director or employee is liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duties. Such right of indemnification shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which such director, officer or employee may be entitled apart from the indemnification provisions of said Article Ninth. Any amount payable by way of indemnity, whether the action, suit or proceeding reaches final judgment, or is settled with court approval before final judgment, shall be determined and paid in accordance with the then applicable provisions of the statutes of the State of New York, provided, however, that if such amount is paid other than pursuant to court order or action by stockholders, Tactical Systems shall within 18 months from the date of such payment mail to its stockholders of record at the time entitled to vote for the election of directors a statement specifying the persons paid, the amount of the payments and the final disposition of the litigation. The By-laws of Tactical Systems provide that Tactical Systems may enter into such contracts of indemnification as may be authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has authorized, and Tactical Systems has entered into, an Indemnity Agreement with certain of Tactical Systems' directors and executive officers. The Indemnity Agreements provide that Tactical Systems will pay on behalf of such persons any amount which he or she is or becomes legally obligated to pay as a result of any claim or claims threatened or made as a result of any act or omission or neglect or breach of duty he or she commits or suffers while acting in his or her capacity as a director or officer of Tactical Systems, including any damages, judgments, settlements and costs, reasonable costs of investigation and reasonable costs of defense of legal actions, claims or proceedings and appeals therefrom, and costs of attachments or similar bonds. The form of Underwriting Agreement filed as an exhibit to this Registration Statement provides for indemnification by the Corporation and the Guarantor of the underwriters or controlling persons of the underwriters under certain circumstances.

- -------- * Previously filed. II-3 ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS. (a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: (i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement; (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement; Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(i) and (a)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement. (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. (b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrants of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrants in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. (i) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that: (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

                                                               ________ __, 199_


To the several Underwriters
  named in the respective Pricing
  Agreement hereinafter described


Dear Sirs:

     From time to time Lockheed Martin Corporation, a Maryland corporation (the
"Corporation"), and Lockheed Martin Tactical Systems, Inc., a New York
corporation (the "Guarantor"), propose to enter into one or more Pricing
Agreements (each a "Pricing Agreement") in the form of Annex I hereto, with such
additions and deletions as the parties thereto may determine, and, subject to
the terms and conditions stated herein and therein, the Corporation proposes to
issue and sell to the firms named in Schedule I to the applicable Pricing
Agreement (such firms constituting the "Underwriters" with respect to such
Pricing Agreement and the securities specified therein) certain of its debt
securities (the "Securities") specified in Schedule II to such Pricing Agreement
(with respect to such Pricing Agreement, the "Designated Securities"), which
Securities shall be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantor (the
"Guarantees").

     The terms and rights of any particular issuance of Designated Securities
shall be as specified in the Pricing Agreement relating thereto and in or
pursuant to the indenture (the "Indenture") identified in such Pricing
Agreement.

     1.   Particular sales of Designated Securities may be made from time to
time to the Underwriters of such Designated Securities, for whom the firms
designated as representatives of the Underwriters of such Designated Securities
in the Pricing Agreement relating thereto will act as representatives (the
"Representatives").  The term "Representatives" also refers to a single firm
acting as sole representative of the Underwriters and to Underwriters who act
without any firm being designated as their representative.  The obligation of
the Corporation to issue and

 
sell any of the Securities, the obligation of the Guarantor to provide the
Guarantees and the obligation of any of the Underwriters to purchase any of the
Securities shall be further evidenced by the Pricing Agreement with respect to
the Designated Securities specified therein.  Each Pricing Agreement shall
specify the aggregate principal amount of such Designated Securities, the
initial public offering price of such Designated Securities, the purchase price
to the Underwriters of such Designated Securities, the names of the Underwriters
of such Designated Securities, the names of the Representatives of such
Underwriters and the principal amount of such Designated Securities to be
purchased by each Underwriter and shall set forth the date, time and manner of
delivery of such Designated Securities and payment therefor.  The Pricing
Agreement shall also specify (to the extent not set forth in the Indenture and
the registration statement and prospectus with respect thereto) the terms of
such Designated Securities.  A Pricing Agreement shall be in the form of an
executed writing (which may be in counterparts), and may be evidenced by an
exchange of telegraphic communications or any other rapid transmission device
designed to produce a written record of communications transmitted.  The
obligations of the Underwriters under this Agreement and each Pricing Agreement
shall be several and not joint.

     2.   The Corporation and the Guarantor represent and warrant to, and agree
with, each Underwriter that:

          (a) The Corporation meets the requirements for the use of Form S-3
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations
adopted thereunder (respectively, the "Securities Act" and the "Rules"), and the
Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") has concurred
in the Guarantor's request that the Guarantor be entitled to use Form S-3.  The
Corporation and the Guarantor have carefully prepared and filed with the
Commission a registration statement or registration statements on Form S-3 (the
file number or numbers of which is or are set forth in Schedule II to the
Pricing Agreement relating to the applicable Designated Securities), which has
become effective, for the registration under the Securities Act of the
Securities and the Guarantees.  Such registration statement or registration
statements, as amended at the date of this Agreement, meet or meets, as the case
may be, the requirements set forth in Rule 415(a)(1)(x) under the Securities Act
and complies in all other material respects with such Rule.  The Corporation and
the Guarantor propose to file with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 under the
Securities Act ("Rule 424") a supplement to the form of prospectus included in
such registration statement relating to such Designated Securities and the plan
of distribution thereof and have previously advised you of all further
information (financial and other) with respect to the Corporation and the
Guarantor to be set forth therein.  The registration statement as amended at the
date of this Agreement, including the exhibits thereto and all documents
incorporated therein by reference pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 (the
"Incorporated Documents"), is hereinafter referred to as the

                                     - 2 -

 
"Registration Statement," and the prospectus as then amended in relation to the
applicable Designated Securities, including the Incorporated Documents, is
hereinafter referred to as the "Basic Prospectus"; and such supplemented form of
prospectus, in the form in which it shall be filed with the Commission pursuant
to Rule 424 (including the Basic Prospectus as so supplemented) is hereinafter
called the "Final Prospectus."  Any preliminary form of the Final Prospectus
which has heretofore been filed pursuant to Rule 424 is hereinafter called an
"Interim Prospectus."  If the Corporation and the Guarantor have filed an
abbreviated registration statement to register additional Designated Securities
pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act (the "Rule 462 Registration
Statement"), then any reference hereunder to the term "Registration Statement"
also shall be deemed to include such Rule 462 Registration Statement.  Any
reference herein to the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, any
Interim Prospectus or the Final Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and
include the Incorporated Documents which were filed under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), on or before the date of
this Agreement, the date of the Pricing Agreement relating to such Designated
Securities or the issue date of the Basic Prospectus, any Interim Prospectus or
the Final Prospectus, as the case may be; and any reference herein to the terms
"amend," "amendment," or "supplement" with respect to the Registration
Statement, the Basic Prospectus, any Interim Prospectus or the Final Prospectus
shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing of any Incorporated Documents
under the Exchange Act after the date of this Agreement, the date of the Pricing
Agreement relating to such Designated Securities or the issue date of the Basic
Prospectus, any Interim Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, as the case may be.

          (b) The Commission has not issued an order preventing or suspending
the use of the Basic Prospectus or any Interim Prospectus.

          (c) The Basic Prospectus and any Interim Prospectus have complied in
all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and of the
Rules and, as of their respective dates, did not include any untrue statement of
a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading.

          (d) As of the date hereof, when the Final Prospectus is first filed
with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424, when, before the Time of Delivery (as
hereinafter defined) for any Designated Securities, any amendment to the
Registration Statement becomes effective, when, before such Time of Delivery,
any document incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement is filed
with the Commission, when any supplement to the Final Prospectus is filed with
the Commission and at such Time of Delivery, the Registration Statement, the
Final Prospectus and any such amendment or supplement will comply in all
material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Rules, the
Incorporated Documents will comply in all material respects with the

                                     - 3 -

 
requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and
the rules and regulations adopted by the Commission thereunder, and no part of
the Registration Statement, the Final Prospectus or any such amendment or
supplement will include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading; except that this representation and warranty
does not apply to (i) statements or omissions in the Registration Statement or
Final Prospectus (or in amendments or supplements thereto) made in reliance upon
information furnished in writing to the Corporation or the Guarantor by the
Representatives on behalf of any Underwriter of such Designated Securities
expressly for use therein or (ii) that part of the Registration Statement which
shall constitute the Statement of Eligibility and Qualification of the Trustee
under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 on Form T-1, except statements or
omissions in such statement made in reliance upon information furnished in
writing to the Trustee by or on behalf of the Corporation or the Guarantor for
use therein.

          (e) The certificates delivered pursuant to paragraph (e) of Section 5
hereof and all other documents delivered by the Corporation or the Guarantor or
any of their representatives in connection with the issuance and sale of the
applicable Designated Securities were on the dates on which they were delivered,
or will be on the dates on which they are to be delivered, in all material
respects true and complete.

          (f) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or
governmental agency or body is required for the consummation by the Corporation
or the Guarantor of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the
Pricing Agreement relating to the applicable Designated Securities, except those
which have been obtained or which may be required under the Securities Act and
such qualifications as may be required under state laws in connection with the
purchase and distribution of such Designated Securities by the Underwriters, and
consummation of such transactions will not result in the material breach of any
terms of, or constitute a material default under, any other material agreement
or undertaking of the Corporation or the Guarantor.

     3.   Upon the execution of the Pricing Agreement applicable to any
Designated Securities and authorization by the Representatives of the release of
such Designated Securities, the several Underwriters propose to offer such
Designated Securities for sale upon the terms and conditions set forth in the
Final Prospectus as amended or supplemented.  The Corporation and the Guarantor
hereby confirm that the Underwriters of any Designated Securities have been
authorized to distribute any Interim Prospectus and are authorized to distribute
the Final Prospectus, each in such form as shall be provided to the Underwriters
by the Corporation and the Guarantor (as they may be amended or supplemented
from time to time if the Corporation and the Guarantor furnish amendments or
supplements thereto to such Underwriters).

                                     - 4 -

 
     
     4. Designated Securities to be purchased by each Underwriter pursuant to
the Pricing Agreement relating thereto, in definitive form to the extent
practicable, and in such authorized denominations and registered in such names
as the Representatives may request upon at least forty-eight hours' prior notice
to the Corporation, shall be delivered by or on behalf of the Corporation and
the Guarantor to the Representatives for the account of such Underwriter,
against payment by such Underwriter or on its behalf of the purchase price
therefor by certified or official bank check or checks or wire transfer payable
in immediately available, same-day funds or any other method specified in the
Pricing Agreement, payable to the order of the Corporation in the funds
specified in such Pricing Agreement, all at the place and time and date
specified in such Pricing Agreement or at such other place and time and date as
the Representatives and the Corporation may agree upon in writing, such time and
date being herein called the "Time of Delivery" for such Securities.
     
     5.   The obligations of the Underwriters of any Designated Securities under
the Pricing Agreement relating to such Designated Securities shall be subject,
in the discretion of the Representatives, to the condition that all
representations and warranties and statements of officers of the Corporation and
the Guarantor made pursuant to the provisions hereof are, at and as of the Time
of Delivery for such Designated Securities, true and correct, the condition that
the Corporation shall have performed all of its obligations hereunder
theretofore to be performed, and the following additional conditions:

          (a) The Final Prospectus shall have been filed or mailed for filing
with the Commission in accordance with Rule 424(b).

          (b) No order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement, as amended from time to time, shall be in effect and no proceedings
for such purpose shall be pending before or threatened by the Commission and any
requests for additional information on the part of the Commission (to be
included in the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus) shall have been
complied with to the reasonable satisfaction of the Representatives.

    
          (c) Since the respective dates as of which information is given in the
Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus, other than in connection with
the transactions contemplated by or discussed under the heading "Recent
Developments" in the Final Prospectus or in the Current Report on Form 8-K of
the Corporation filed with the Commission on May 2, 1996 (as amended by the
Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the Commission on May 8, 1996), or in
connection with the adoption of new accounting standards, (i) there shall not

amendments thereto which shall become effective on or before the Time of

Interim Prospectus and the Final Prospectus and amendments and supplements
thereto and the mailing and delivering of copies thereof to the Underwriters and
dealers; (ii) the cost of printing or producing any Agreement among
Underwriters, this Agreement, any Pricing Agreement, any Indenture, any Blue Sky
and Legal Investment Memoranda and any other documents in connection with the
offering, purchase, sale and delivery of the Securities; (iii) all expenses in
connection with the qualification of the Securities for offering and sale under
state securities laws as provided in Section 6(g) hereof, including the
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Underwriters in connection
with such qualification and in connection with the Blue Sky and legal investment
surveys; (iv) any fees charged by securities rating services for rating the
Securities; (v) any filing fees incident to any required review by the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. of the terms of the sale of the
Securities; (vi) the cost of preparing the Securities; (vii) the fees and
expenses of any Trustee in connection with any Indenture and the Securities;
(viii) the fee, if any, for listing the Securities on any national securities
exchange; and (ix) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance of
its obligations hereunder which are not otherwise specifically provided for in
this Section.  It is understood, however, that, except as provided in this
Section, Section 8 and

                                     - 10 -

 
Section 12 hereof, the Underwriters will pay all of their own costs and
expenses, including the fees of their counsel, transfer taxes on resale of any
of the Securities by them, and any advertising expenses connected with any
offers they may make.

     8.   (a)  The Corporation and the Guarantor each agree to indemnify and
hold harmless each Underwriter against any and all losses, claims, damages and
liabilities, joint or several (including any reasonable investigation, legal and
other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement
of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted, provided that legal
expenses relate to counsel acceptable to the Corporation and the Guarantor), to
which they, or any of them, may become subject under the Securities Act, the
Exchange Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common
law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise
solely out of or are based solely upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Basic
Prospectus, any Interim Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading, except insofar as any such untrue statement or omission
or alleged untrue statement or omission was made in (i) the Registration
Statement, the Basic Prospectus, any Interim Prospectus or the Final Prospectus,
or such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with
information furnished in writing to the Corporation or the Guarantor by the
Representatives on behalf of any Underwriter of Designated Securities expressly
for use in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Interim
Prospectus or the Final Prospectus as amended or supplemented relating to such
Designated Securities or (ii) that part of the Registration Statement which
shall constitute the Statement of Eligibility and Qualification on Form T-1 of
any Trustee under the Trust Indenture Act, except statements or omissions in
such Statement made in reliance upon information furnished in writing to such
Trustee by or on behalf of the Corporation or the Guarantor for use therein;
provided, however, that such indemnity with respect to the Basic Prospectus or
any Interim Prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any Underwriter of
Designated Securities (or any person controlling such Underwriter) from whom the
person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or liability purchased Designated
Securities that are the subject thereof if such person did not receive a copy of
the Final Prospectus (not including the Incorporated Documents) at or prior to
the confirmation of the sale of such Designated Securities to such person in any
case where such delivery is required by the Securities Act and the untrue
statement or omission of a material fact contained in the Basic Prospectus or
any Interim Prospectus was corrected in the Final Prospectus, unless such
failure to deliver the Final Prospectus was a result of noncompliance by the
Corporation and the Guarantor with Section 6(d) hereof.

                                     - 11 -

 
          (b) Each Underwriter of Designated Securities agrees to indemnify and
hold harmless the Corporation and the Guarantor to the same extent as the
foregoing indemnity from the Corporation and the Guarantor to each Underwriter,
but only insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise solely out
of or are based upon any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue
statement or omission that was made in the Registration Statement, the Basic
Prospectus, any Interim Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with information
furnished in writing to the Corporation or the Guarantor by the Representatives
on behalf of such Underwriter expressly for use in the Registration Statement,
the Basic Prospectus, any Interim Prospectus or the Final Prospectus as amended
or supplemented relating to such Designated Securities; provided, however, that
the obligation of each such Underwriter to indemnify the Corporation and the
Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the total price at which the Designated
Securities purchased by such Underwriter hereunder were offered to the public.

          (c) Any party that proposes to assert the right to be indemnified
under this Section 8 will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of
any action, suit or proceeding against any such party in respect of which a
claim is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 8, notify
each such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action, suit or
proceeding, enclosing a copy of all papers served, but the omission so to notify
such indemnifying party of any such action, suit or proceeding shall not relieve
it from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than
under this Section 8 (it being understood that the omission so to notify such
indemnifying party shall relieve it from any liability it may have to any
indemnified party under this Section 8; provided, however, that timely notice
hereunder to the Representatives made pursuant to Section 13 hereof shall be
deemed timely notice to any Underwriter that is an indemnifying party).  In case
any such action, suit or proceeding shall be brought against any indemnified
party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof,
such indemnifying party or parties shall be entitled to participate in, and, to
the extent that it or they shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to
such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party or parties
to such indemnified party of its or their election so to assume the defense
thereof, the indemnifying party or parties shall not be liable to such
indemnified party for any legal or other expenses, other than reasonable costs
of investigation subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection
with the defense thereof.  The indemnified party shall have the right to employ
its counsel in any such action, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall
be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the employment of counsel
by such indemnified party has been authorized by the indemnifying party or
parties, (ii) the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there
may be a conflict of interest between the indemnifying party or parties and the
indemnified party

                                     - 12 -

 
in the conduct of the defense of such action (in which case the indemnifying
party or parties shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action
on behalf of the indemnified party), or (iii) the indemnifying party or parties
shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, in
each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of
the indemnifying party or parties.  In the event that the indemnified party
retains separate counsel pursuant to clauses (i), (ii), or (iii) of the previous
sentence, such counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the indemnifying party.
Any indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action or
claim effected without its written consent.

          (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is
unavailable to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b)
above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof) referred to therein (other than because such indemnification,
by its terms, does not apply), then each indemnifying party shall contribute to
the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the
Corporation and the Guarantor on the one hand and the Underwriters of the
Designated Securities on the other from the offering of the Designated
Securities to which such loss, claim, damage or liability (or actions in respect
thereof) relates.  If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately
preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified
party failed to give the notice required under subsection (c) above, then each
indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such
relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Corporation and the
Guarantor on the one hand and the Underwriters of the Designated Securities on
the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well
as any other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative benefits received
by the Corporation and the Guarantor on the one hand and such Underwriters on
the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds
from such offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Corporation bear
to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such
Underwriters.  The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Corporation and the Guarantor on the one hand or
such Underwriters on the other and the parties' relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission.  The Corporation, the Guarantor and the Underwriters agree that it
would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (d)
were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as
one entity for

                                     - 13 -

 
such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account
of the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d).  The
amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above
in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating
or defending any such action or claim.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this
subsection (d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in
excess of the amount by which the total price at which the applicable Designated
Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the
public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise
been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission.  No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
(within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation.  The obligations of the Underwriters of Designated Securities
in this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their
respective underwriting obligations with respect to such Designated Securities
and not joint.

          (e) The obligations of the Corporation and the Guarantor under this
Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability which the Corporation and the
Guarantor may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and
conditions, to each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the
meaning of the Securities Act; and the obligations of the Underwriters under
this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability which the respective
Underwriters may otherwise have and shall extend, upon the same terms and
conditions, to each officer and director of the Corporation or the Guarantor and
to each person, if any, who controls the Corporation or the Guarantor within the
meaning of the Securities Act.

     9.   (a)  If any Underwriter shall default in its obligation to purchase
the Designated Securities which it has agreed to purchase under the Pricing
Agreement relating to such Designated Securities, the Representatives may in
their discretion arrange for themselves or another party or other parties to
purchase such Designated Securities on the terms contained herein and in the
Pricing Agreement.  If within thirty-six hours after such default by any
Underwriter the Representatives do not arrange for the purchase of such
Designated Securities, then the Corporation shall be entitled to a further
period of thirty-six hours within which to procure another party or other
parties satisfactory to the Representatives to purchase such Designated
Securities on such terms.  In the event that, within the respective prescribed
period, the Representatives notify the Corporation that they have so arranged
for the purchase of such Designated Securities, or the Corporation notifies the
Representatives that it has so arranged for the purchase of such Designated
Securities, the Representatives or the Corporation shall have the right to
postpone the Time of

                                     - 14 -

 
Delivery for such Designated Securities for a period of not more than seven
days, in order to effect whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the
Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus as amended or supplemented, or in
any other documents or arrangements, and the Corporation agrees to file promptly
any amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Final
Prospectus which in the opinion of the Representatives may thereby be made
necessary.  The term "Underwriter" as used in this Agreement shall include any
person substituted under this Section 9 with like effect as if such person had
originally been a party to the Pricing Agreement with respect to such Designated
Securities.

          (b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of
the Designated Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the
Representatives and the Corporation as provided in subsection (a) above, the
aggregate principal amount of such Designated Securities which remains
unpurchased does not exceed one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the
Designated Securities, then the Corporation shall have the right to require each
non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the principal amount of Designated
Securities which such Underwriter agreed to purchase under the Pricing Agreement
relating to such Designated Securities and, in addition, to require each non-
defaulting Underwriter to purchase its pro rata share (based on the principal
amount of Designated Securities which such Underwriter agreed to purchase under
such Pricing Agreement) of the Designated Securities of such defaulting
Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made; but
nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its
default.

          (c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of
the Designated Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the
Representatives and the Corporation as provided in subsection (a) above, the
aggregate principal amount of Designated Securities which remains unpurchased
exceeds one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the Designated
Securities, as referred to in subsection (b) above, or if the Corporation shall
not exercise the right described in subsection (b) above to require non-
defaulting Underwriters to purchase Designated Securities of a defaulting
Underwriter or Underwriters, then the Pricing Agreement relating to such
Designated Securities shall thereupon terminate, without liability on the part
of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Corporation, except for the expenses to
be borne by the Corporation and the Underwriters as provided in Section 7 hereof
and the indemnity and contribution agreements in Section 8 hereof; but nothing
herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

     10.  Any Pricing Agreement may be terminated by the Representatives or by
Underwriters who have agreed to purchase in the aggregate at least 50% of the
principal amount of the applicable Designated Securities by notifying the
Corporation at any time,

                                     - 15 -

 
          (a) prior to the earliest of (i) 11:00 a.m., New York time, on the day
     following the date of the applicable Pricing Agreement, (ii) the time of
     release by the Representatives for publication of the first newspaper
     advertisement that is subsequently published with respect to such
     Designated Securities or (iii) the time when such Designated Securities are
     first generally offered by the Representatives to dealers by letter or
     telegram;

          (b) at or prior to the Time of Delivery for such Designated Securities
     if, in the judgment of the Representatives or in the judgment of such
     Underwriters, as the case may be, payment for and delivery of such
     Designated Securities is rendered impracticable or inadvisable because (i)
     additional material governmental restrictions, not in force and effect on
     the date hereof or on the date of such Pricing Agreement, shall have been
     imposed upon trading in securities generally or minimum or maximum prices
     shall have been generally established on the New York Stock Exchange, or
     trading in securities generally shall have been suspended on such Exchange
     or a general banking moratorium shall have been established by Federal or
     New York authorities, (ii) any event shall have occurred or shall exist
     which makes untrue or incorrect in any material respect any material
     statement or information contained in the Registration Statement or the
     Final Prospectus or which is not reflected in the Registration Statement or
     the Final Prospectus but should be reflected therein in order to make the
     statements or information contained therein not misleading in any material
     respect or (iii) hostilities involving the United States or other national
     calamity shall have occurred or shall have accelerated to such an extent
     as, in the judgment of the Representatives, to affect adversely the
     marketability of such Designated Securities; or

          (c) at or prior to the Time of Delivery for such Designated
     Securities, if any of the conditions specified in Section 5 hereof shall
     not have been fulfilled when and as required by this Agreement.

     If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to any of the provisions hereof,
the Corporation and the Guarantor shall not be under any liability (except as
otherwise provided herein) to any Underwriter and no Underwriter shall be under
any liability to the Corporation or the Guarantor, except that (a) if this
Agreement is terminated by the Representatives or the Underwriters because of
any failure or refusal on the part of the Corporation or the Guarantor to comply
with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, the
Corporation or the Guarantor, as the case may be, will reimburse the
Underwriters for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and
disbursements of their counsel) incurred by them and (b) no Underwriter who
shall have failed or refused to purchase Designated Securities agreed to be
purchased by it hereunder, without some reason sufficient

                                     - 16 -

 
hereunder to justify its cancellation or termination of its obligations
hereunder, shall be relieved of liability to the Corporation or the Guarantor or
to the other Underwriters for damages occasioned by its default.

     11.  The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties
and other statements of the Corporation and the Guarantor and the several
Underwriters, as set forth in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of them,
respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and effect,
regardless of any termination of this Agreement, any investigation (or any
statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or
any controlling person of any Underwriter, or the Corporation or the Guarantor,
or any officer or director or controlling person of the Corporation or the
Guarantor, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Securities.

     12.  If any Pricing Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to Section 9
hereof, neither the Corporation nor the Guarantor shall then be under any
liability to any Underwriter with respect to the Designated Securities covered
by such Pricing Agreement except as provided in Section 7 and Section 8 hereof;
but, if for any other reason Designated Securities are not delivered by or on
behalf of the Corporation as provided herein, the Corporation and the Guarantor
will reimburse the Underwriters through the Representatives for all out-of-
pocket expenses approved in writing by the Representatives, including fees and
disbursements of counsel, reasonably incurred by the Underwriters in making
preparations for the purchase, sale and delivery of such Designated Securities,
but the Corporation and the Guarantor shall then be under no further liability
to any Underwriter with respect to such Designated Securities except as provided
in Section 7 and Section 8 hereof.

     13.  In all dealings hereunder, the Representatives of the Underwriters of
Designated Securities shall act on behalf of each of such Underwriters, and the
parties hereto shall be entitled to act and rely upon any statement, request,
notice or agreement on behalf of any Underwriter made or given by such
Representatives jointly or by such of the Representatives, if any, as may be
designated for such purpose in the Pricing Agreement.

          All statements, requests, notices and agreements hereunder shall be in
writing or by telegram if promptly confirmed in writing, and if to the
Underwriters shall be sufficient in all respects if delivered or sent by
registered mail to the address of the Representatives as set forth in the
Pricing Agreement; and if to the Corporation or the Guarantor shall be
sufficient in all respects if delivered or sent by registered mail to the
address of the Corporation or the Guarantor set forth in the Registration
Statement; Attention:  Vice President and General Counsel; provided, however,
that any notice to an Underwriter pursuant to Section 8(c) hereof shall be
delivered or sent by registered mail to such Underwriter at its address set
forth in its Underwriters'

                                     - 17 -

 
Questionnaire, or telex constituting such Questionnaire, which address will be
supplied to the Corporation by the Representatives upon request.

     14.  This Agreement and each Pricing Agreement shall be binding upon, and
inure solely to the benefit of, the Underwriters, the Corporation and the
Guarantor and, to the extent provided in Section 8 and Section 11 hereof, the
officers and directors of the Corporation and the Guarantor and each person who
controls the Corporation or the Guarantor or any Underwriter, and their
respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and no
other person shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this
Agreement or any such Pricing Agreement.  No purchaser of any of the Securities
from any Underwriter shall be deemed a successor or assign by reason merely of
such purchase.

     15.  Time shall be of the essence of each Pricing Agreement.

     16.  This Agreement and each Pricing Agreement shall be construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

     17.  This Agreement and each Pricing Agreement may be executed by any one
or more of the parties hereto and thereto in any number of counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such respective counterparts
shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

     If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding, please sign and
return counterparts hereof.

                              Very truly yours,

Dear Sirs:

     Lockheed Martin Corporation, a Maryland corporation (the "Corporation"),
proposes, subject to the terms and conditions stated herein and in the
Underwriting Agreement dated ________ __, 1996 (the "Underwriting Agreement"),
to issue and sell to the Underwriters named in Schedule I hereto (the
"Underwriters") the Securities specified in Schedule II hereto (the "Designated
Securities"), which Designated Securities shall be fully and unconditionally
guaranteed by Lockheed Martin Tactical Systems, Inc., a New York corporation
("the Guarantor").  Each of the provisions of the Underwriting Agreement is
incorporated herein by reference in its entirety, and shall be deemed to be a
part of this Agreement to the same extent as if such provisions had been set
forth in full herein; and each of the representations and warranties set forth
therein shall be deemed to have been made at and as of the date of this Pricing
Agreement.  Each reference to the Representatives herein and in the provisions
of the Underwriting Agreement so incorporated by reference shall be deemed to
refer to you.  Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the
Underwriting Agreement are used herein as therein defined.  The Representatives
designated to act on behalf of the Representatives and on behalf of each of the
Underwriters of the Designated Securities pursuant to Section 13 of the
Underwriting Agreement and the address of the Representatives referred to in
such Section 13 are set forth at the end of Schedule II hereto.

     An amendment to the Registration Statement, or a supplement to the Final
Prospectus, as the case may be, relating to the Designated Securities, in the
form heretofore delivered to you is now proposed to be filed, or, in the case of
a supplement, proposed to be filed or mailed for filing, with the Commission.

     Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the
Underwriting Agreement incorporated herein by reference, the Corporation agrees
to issue and sell to each of the Underwriters,


 
and each of the Underwriters agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from
the Corporation, at the time and place and at the purchase price to the
Underwriters set forth in Schedule II hereto, the principal amount of Designated
Securities set forth opposite the name of such Underwriter in Schedule I hereto.

     If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding, please sign and
return to us counterparts hereof, and upon acceptance hereof by you, on behalf
of each of the Underwriters, this letter and such acceptance hereof, including
the provisions of the Underwriting Agreement incorporated herein by reference,
shall constitute a binding agreement between each of the Underwriters, the
Corporation and the Guarantor.  It is understood that your acceptance of this
letter on behalf of each of the Underwriters is or will be pursuant to the
authority set forth in a form of Agreement among Underwriters, the form of which
shall be submitted to the Corporation for examination, upon request.

                                 Very truly yours,

                                 LOCKHEED MARTIN CORPORATION

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Corporation shall establish pursuant to Section 2.03 that the Securities of a series are to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Securities, then the Corporation and the Guarantor shall execute and the Trustee shall, in accordance with this Section, Section 2.02 and the authentication order of the Corporation with respect to such series, authenticate and deliver one or more Global Securities in temporary or permanent form that shall (a) represent and be denominated in an aggregate amount equal to the aggregate - 7 - principal amount of the Securities of such series to be represented by one or more Global Securities, (b) be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Security or Securities or the nominee of such Depositary, (c) be delivered by the Trustee to such Depositary or pursuant to such Depositary's instruction; and (d) bear a legend substantially to the following effect: "Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Securities in definitive form, this Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any nominee to a successor Depositary or a nominee of any successor Depositary." SECTION 2.02. Execution and Authentication. Two Officers shall sign the Securities for the Corporation by manual or facsimile signature. Two Officers shall sign the Guarantees for the Guarantor by manual or facsimile signature. The Corporation's and the Guarantor's seals shall be impressed, affixed, imprinted or reproduced on the Securities. If an Officer whose signature is on a Security or a Guarantee no longer holds that office at the time the Trustee authenticates the Security, the Security or the Guarantee, as the case may be, shall be valid nevertheless. A Security and the related Guarantee shall not be valid until the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on the Security. The signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Security has been authenticated under this Indenture. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.03 and of the preceding paragraphs, if all Securities of a series are not to be originally issued at one time (including, for example, a series constituting a medium-term note program), it shall not be necessary to deliver the Officers' Certificate otherwise required pursuant to Section 2.01 or the Opinions of Counsel otherwise required pursuant to such preceding paragraphs at or prior to the time of authentication of each Security of such series if such documents are delivered at or prior to the time of authentication upon original issuance of the first Security of such series. In such case the Trustee may conclusively rely on the foregoing documents and opinions delivered pursuant to Section 2.01 and Section 2.03, and this Section, as applicable (unless revoked by superseding comparable documents or opinions), as to the matters set forth therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Corporation, and the Corporation shall deliver such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 2.11 together with a written statement (which need not comply with Section 2.01 and need not be accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel) stating that such Security has never been issued and sold by the Corporation, for all purposes of this Indenture such - 8 - Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture. If any Security of a series shall be represented by a Global Security, then, for purposes of this Section and Section 2.10, the notation of the record owners' interest therein upon original issuance of such Security shall be deemed to be delivered in connection with the original issuance of each beneficial owner's interest in such Global Security. The Trustee's certificate of authentication on all Securities shall be in substantially the following form: This is one of the Securities of the series designated herein and referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture. Date: [Name of Trustee], as Trustee By___________________________ The Trustee may appoint an authenticating agent acceptable to the Corporation to authenticate Securities. An authenticating agent may authenticate Securities whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to authentication by the Trustee includes authentication by such agent. An authenticating agent has the same rights as an Agent to deal with the Corporation. If at any time there shall be an authenticating agent appointed with respect to any series of Securities, then the Trustee's certificate of authentication to be borne by the Securities of each such series shall be substantially as follows: This is one of the Securities of the series designated herein and referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture. Date: [Name of Trustee], as Trustee By:___________________________ as Authenticating Agent By:___________________________ Authorized Officer SECTION 2.03. Title, Amount and Terms of Securities. The principal amount of Securities that may be authenticated and delivered and outstanding under this Indenture is not limited. The Securities may be issued in a total principal amount up to that authorized from time to time by or pursuant to relevant Board Resolutions. - 9 - The Securities may be issued in one or more series, each of which shall be issued pursuant to a Board Resolution or Resolutions of the Corporation or the Guarantor, as appropriate, which shall specify: (1) the title of the Securities of that series (which shall distinguish the Securities of that series from Securities of all other series); (2) any limit on the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of that series that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture (except for Securities authenticated and delivered upon registration or transfer of, in exchange for or in lieu of other Securities of that series pursuant to Sections 2.07, 2.08 or 3.07); (3) the date or dates (or the manner of determining the same) on which the principal of the Securities of that series is payable (which, if so provided in the Board Resolution or Resolutions, may be determined by the Corporation from time to time and set forth in the Securities of that series issued from time to time); (4) the rate or rates, or the method to be used in ascertaining the rate or rates, at which the Securities of that series shall bear interest, if any, the basis upon which interest shall be calculated if other than that of a 360-day year of 12 30-day months, the date or dates from which such interest shall accrue (which, in either case or both, if so provided in the Board Resolution or Resolutions, may be determined by the Corporation from time to time and set forth in the Securities of that series issued from time to time), the interest payment dates on which such interest shall be payable (or the manner of determining the same) and the record date for the interest payable on any interest payment date; (5) if the trustee of that series is other than the Trustee initially named in this Indenture or any successor thereto, the trustee of that series; (6) the place or places where the principal of and interest, if any, on Securities of that series shall be payable; (7) the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which, the currency or currency unit in which, and the terms and conditions on which Securities of that series may be redeemed or converted into another Security, in whole or in part, at the option of the Corporation; (8) the obligation, if any, of the Corporation to redeem or purchase Securities of that series pursuant to any sinking fund or analogous provisions or at the option of Holders of Securities of that series (or to convert such Securities into - 10 - other Securities at the option of the Holder), and the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which, the currency or currency unit in which, and the terms and conditions upon which Securities of that series shall be redeemed or purchased, in whole or in part, pursuant to such obligation; (9) if denominated in Dollars and in denominations other than denominations of $1,000 and any multiple of $1,000, the denominations in which Securities of that series shall be issuable; (10) if denominated in other than Dollars, the currency or currencies, including composite currencies, in which the Securities of that series are denominated and the denominations in which Securities of that series shall be issuable; (11) if the principal of and interest, if any, on the Securities of that series are to be payable, at the election of the Corporation or a Holder thereof, in a currency or currency unit other than that in which the Securities are denominated or stated to be payable, in accordance with provisions in addition to or in lieu of or in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.13, the period or periods within which (including the Election Date), and the terms and conditions upon which, such election may be made, and the time and manner of determining the exchange rate between the currency or currency unit in which the Securities are denominated or stated to be payable and the currency or currency unit in which the Securities are to be so payable; (12) the index, if any, used to determine the amount of payments of principal of or interest, if any, on the Securities of that series; (13) if the amount of payments of the principal of and interest, if any, on the Securities of that series may be determined with reference to an index based on a currency or currencies other than that in which the Securities of that series are denominated, the manner in which such amounts shall be determined;

(19) if the Securities of that series are to be issued in whole or in part in the form of one or more Global Securities, the Depositary for such Global Security or Securities and whether beneficial owners of interests in any such Global Securities may exchange such interests for other Securities of such series in the manner provided in Section 2.07, and the manner and the circumstances under which and the place or places where any such exchanges may occur if other than in the manner provided in Section 2.07, and any other terms of the series relating to the global nature of the Securities of such series and the exchange, registration or transfer thereof and the payment of any principal thereof or interest, if any, thereon; (20) the designation of the original Currency Determination Agent, if any, with respect to the Securities of that series; (21) the Guarantee of the Securities of such series pursuant to Article 10; and (22) any other terms of or relating to the Securities of that series or the related Guarantees (which terms shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture). References herein to currency shall include ECUs, unless otherwise specified or unless the context otherwise requires. All Securities of any particular series shall be identical as to currency of denomination and otherwise shall be substantially identical except as to denomination and except as may otherwise be provided in or pursuant to the relevant Board Resolution or Resolutions. The Trustee need not authenticate the Securities in any series if their terms impose on the Trustee duties in addition to those imposed on the Trustee by this Indenture. If the Trustee does authenticate any such Securities, the authentication will evidence the Trustee's agreement to comply with any such additional duties. Each Depositary designated pursuant to this Section 2.03 for a Global Security in registered form shall, if required, at the time of its designation and at all times while it serves as a - 12 - Depositary, be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and any other applicable statute or regulation. SECTION 2.04. Registrar and Paying Agent. The Corporation shall maintain an office or agency where Securities may be presented for registration of transfer or for exchange ("Registrar") and an office or agency where Securities may be presented for payment ("Paying Agent"). The Registrar shall keep a register of the Securities and of their transfer and exchange. The Corporation may have one or more co-registrars and one or more additional paying agents. The term "Paying Agent" includes any additional paying agent. There may be separate Registrars and Paying Agents for different series of Securities. The Corporation shall enter into an appropriate agency agreement with any Registrar, Paying Agent or co-registrar not a party to this Indenture. The agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that relate to such Agent. The Corporation shall notify the Trustee of the name and address of any such Agent. If the Corporation fails to maintain a Registrar or Paying Agent, the Trustee shall act as such. The Corporation initially appoints the Trustee as Registrar and Paying Agent. SECTION 2.05. Paying Agent to Hold Money in Trust. Each Paying Agent for any series of Securities shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders of Securities of the same series or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of principal of or interest, if any, on such Securities and shall notify the Trustee of any default by the Corporation in making such payment. If the Corporation or a Subsidiary acts as Paying Agent with respect to a series of Securities, it shall segregate the money for that series and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Corporation at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. Upon doing so the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the money. SECTION 2.06. Securityholder Lists. For each series of Securities, the Trustee shall preserve in as current a form as is reasonably practicable the most recent list available to it of the names and addresses of Holders of Securities of that series. If the Trustee is not the Registrar, the Corporation shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee on or before each interest payment date for each series of Securities and at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing a list in such form and as of such date as the Trustee may reasonably require of the names and addresses of Holders of Securities of that series. SECTION 2.07. Transfer and Exchange. Where a Security (other than a Global Security except as set forth herein) is presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer, the Registrar shall register the transfer as requested if the requirements of Section 8-401(1) of the Uniform Commercial Code - 13 - (or any successor provision) are met. Where Securities (other than a Global Security except as set forth herein) of any series are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Securities of other denominations of the same series with identical terms as the Securities exchanged, the Registrar shall make the exchange as requested if the same requirements are met. To permit transfers and exchanges, the Trustee shall authenticate Securities at the Registrar's request. The Corporation may charge a reasonable fee for any transfer or exchange, but not for any exchange pursuant to Section 2.10, 3.07 or 9.05. The Corporation shall not be required to make transfers or exchanges of Securities of any series for a period of 15 days before a selection of Securities of the same series to be redeemed or before an interest payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section, unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Securities in definitive form, a Global Security representing all or a portion of the Securities of a series may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary for such series to a nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of such Depositary to such Depositary or another nominee of such Depositary or by such Depositary or any such nominee to a successor Depositary for such series or a nominee of such successor Depositary. None of the Corporation, the Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar or any co-registrar shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. If at any time the Depositary for the Securities of a series notifies the Corporation that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Securities of such series or if at any time the Depositary for the Securities of such series shall no longer be eligible under Section 2.03, the Corporation shall appoint a successor Depositary with respect to the Securities of such series. If a successor Depositary for the Securities of such series is not appointed by the Corporation within 90 days after the Corporation receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility, the Corporation's election pursuant to Section 2.03(19) shall no longer be effective with respect to the Securities of such series and the Corporation will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an order of the Corporation for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such series, will authenticate and deliver Securities of such series in definitive form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security or Securities representing such series in exchange for such Global Security or Securities. The Corporation may at any time and in its sole discretion determine that the Securities of any series issued in the form of one or more Global Securities shall no longer be represented by - 14 - such Global Security or Securities. In such event the Corporation will execute, and the Trustee, upon receipt of an order of the Corporation for the authentication and delivery of definitive Securities of such series, will authenticate and deliver Securities of such series in definitive form in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Security or Securities representing such series in exchange for such Global Security or Securities. If specified by the Corporation pursuant to Section 2.03 with respect to a series of Securities, the Depositary for such series of Securities may surrender a Global Security for such series of Securities in exchange in whole or in part for the Securities of such series in definitive form on such terms as are acceptable to the Corporation and such Depositary. Thereupon, the Corporation shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver: (1) to each party specified by such Depositary a new Security or Securities of the same series, of any authorized denomination as requested by such party in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for such party's beneficial interest in the Global Security; and (2) to such Depositary a new Global Security in a denomination equal to the difference, if any, between the principal amount of the surrendered Global Security and the aggregate principal amount of Securities delivered to Holders thereof. Upon the exchange of the Global Security for Securities in definitive form, such Global Security shall be canceled by the Trustee. Securities issued in exchange for a Global Security pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the Depositary for such Global Security, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Securities to the parties in whose names such Securities are so registered. SECTION 2.08. Replacement Securities. If the Holder of a Security claims that the Security has been mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Corporation may issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Security of the same series with identical terms as the Securities exchanged if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code (or any successor provision) are met. Such Holder shall furnish an indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Corporation and the Trustee to protect the Corporation, the Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any co-registrar from any loss which any of them may suffer if a Security is replaced. The Corporation and the Trustee may charge for their expenses in replacing a Security. In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become due and payable, the Corporation in its discretion may, - 15 - instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated Security) if the applicant for such payment shall furnish to the Corporation, the Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any co-registrar for such Security such security or indemnity as may be required by them to hold each of them harmless, and in case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence satisfactory to the Corporation, the Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any co-registrar, and any agent of any of them, of the destruction, loss or theft of such Security and the ownership thereof. Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section 2.08, the Corporation may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including all fees and expenses of the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any co-registrar for such Security) connected therewith. Every new Security of any series issued pursuant to this Section 2.08 in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Security or in exchange for any mutilated Security, shall constitute an original additional obligation of the Corporation, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities of the same series. The provisions of this Section 2.08 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities. SECTION 2.09. Outstanding Securities. Securities outstanding at any time are all Securities authenticated by the Trustee (and, in the case of Global Securities, endorsed by the Trustee) except for those canceled by it, those delivered to it for cancellation and those described in this Section as not outstanding. A Security does not cease to be outstanding because the Corporation, the Guarantor or an affiliate of the Corporation or the Guarantor holds the Security. If a Security is replaced pursuant to Section 2.08, it ceases to be outstanding unless the Trustee receives proof satisfactory to it that the replaced Security is held by a bona fide purchaser. If the Paying Agent holds on a redemption date or maturity date money sufficient to pay Securities payable on that date, then on and after that date such Securities cease to be outstanding and interest on them ceases to accrue. If a Security is called for redemption, the Corporation and the Trustee need not treat the Security as outstanding in - 16 - determining whether Holders of the required principal amount of Securities have concurred in any direction, waiver or consent. SECTION 2.10. Temporary Securities. Until definitive Securities of any series are ready for delivery or a permanent Global Security or Securities are prepared, as the case may be, the Corporation may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Securities or one or more temporary Global Securities, as the case may be, of the same series, having endorsed thereon Guarantees duly executed by the Guarantor in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Indenture. Temporary Securities of any series shall be substantially in the form of definitive Securities or permanent Global Securities, as the case may be, of the same series, but may have variations that the Corporation considers appropriate for temporary Securities. Without unreasonable delay, the Corporation shall prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Securities or a permanent Global Security or Securities, as the case may be, of the same series in exchange for temporary Securities. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities of any series shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities or permanent Global Securities of such series. SECTION 2.11. Cancellation. The Corporation or the Guarantor at any time may deliver Securities to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Securities surrendered to them for transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel or destroy all Securities surrendered for transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation, and shall so certify to the Corporation. The Corporation may not issue new Securities to replace Securities it has paid or it has delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. SECTION 2.12. Defaulted Interest. If the Corporation defaults in a payment of interest on any Securities of any series, it shall pay the defaulted interest to the persons who are Holders of those Securities on a subsequent special record date. The Corporation shall fix the special record date and the payment date in respect thereof. At least 15 days before the special record date, the Corporation shall mail to each Holder of Securities of that series a notice that states the special record date, the payment date and the amount of defaulted interest to be paid. The Corporation may pay defaulted interest in any other lawful manner. SECTION 2.13. Currency and Manner of Payments in Respect of Securities. (a) With respect to Securities of any series not permitting the election provided for in paragraph (b) below or the Holders of which have not made the election provided for in paragraph (b) below, except as provided in paragraph (d) below, payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on any Security of such series will be made in the currency or currency unit in which such Security is payable. - 17 - (b) It may be provided pursuant to Section 2.03 with respect to Securities of any series that Holders shall have the option, subject to paragraphs (d) and (e) below, to receive payments of principal of or interest, if any, on such Securities in any of the currencies or currency units which may be designated for such election by delivering to the Trustee for such series of Securities a written election with signature guarantees and in form and substance satisfactory to such Trustee, not later than the close of business on the Election Date immediately preceding the applicable payment date. If a Holder so elects to receive such payments in any such currency or currency unit, such election will remain in effect for such Holder until changed by such Holder by written notice to the Trustee for such series of Securities (but any such change must be made not later than the close of business on the Election Date immediately preceding the next payment date to be effective for the payment to be made on such payment date and no such change of election may be made with respect to payments to be made on any Security of such series with respect to which an Event of Default has occurred or notice of redemption has been given by the Corporation pursuant to Article 3). In the event any Holder makes any such election pursuant to the preceding sentence, such election will not be effective on any transferee of such Holder and such transferee shall be paid in the currency or currency unit indicated pursuant to paragraph (a) above unless such transferee makes an election pursuant to the preceding sentence; provided, however, that such election, if in effect while funds are on deposit with respect to the Securities of such series as described in Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.03, will be effective on any transferee of such Holder unless otherwise specified pursuant to Section 2.03 for the Securities of such series. Any Holder of any such Security who shall not have delivered any such election to the Trustee of such series of Securities not later than the close of business on the applicable Election Date will be paid the amount due on the applicable payment date in the relevant currency or currency unit as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section. In no case may a Holder of Securities of any series elect to receive payments in any currency or currency unit as described in this Section 2.13(b) following a deposit of funds with respect to the Securities of such series as described in Section 8.01, 8.02 or 8.03. (c) If the election referred to in paragraph (b) above has been provided for pursuant to Section 2.03, then not later than the fourth Business Day after the Election Date for each payment date for Securities of any series, the Currency Determination Agent for that series will deliver to the Corporation a written notice specifying, in the currency or currency unit in which Securities of such series are payable, the respective aggregate amounts of principal of and interest, if any, on the Securities to be made on such payment date, and specifying the amounts in such currency or currency unit so payable with respect to the Securities of such series as to which the Holders thereof shall have elected to be paid in a currency or currency unit other than that in which such series is denominated as provided in paragraph (b) above. If the election referred to in paragraph (b) above has been provided for - 18 - pursuant to Section 2.03 and if at least one Holder has made such election, then, on the second Business Day preceding such payment date the Corporation will deliver to the Trustee for such series of Securities an Exchange Rate Officers' Certificate with respect to the Dollar, Foreign Currency, ECU or currency unit payments to be made on such payment date. The Dollar, Foreign Currency, ECU or currency unit amount receivable by Holders of Securities who have elected payment in a currency or currency unit as provided in paragraph (b) above shall, unless otherwise provided pursuant to Section 2.03, be determined by the Corporation on the basis of the applicable Market Exchange Rate in effect on the third Business Day (the "Valuation Date") immediately preceding each payment date. (d) If a Conversion Event occurs with respect to a Foreign Currency, the ECU or any other currency unit in which any of the Securities are denominated or payable other than pursuant to an election provided for pursuant to paragraph (b) above, then with respect to each date for the payment of principal of and interest, if any, on the applicable Securities denominated or payable in such Foreign Currency, the ECU or such other currency unit occurring after the last date on which such Foreign Currency, the ECU or such other currency unit was available (the "Conversion Date"), the Dollar shall be the currency of payment for use on each such payment date. The Dollar amount to be paid by the Corporation to the Trustee of each such series of Securities and by such Trustee or any Paying Agent to the Holders of such Securities with respect to such payment date shall be the amount that would have been payable in Foreign Currency or currency units but expressed in Dollars according to the Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Currency or, in the case of a currency unit, the Dollar Equivalent of the Currency Unit, in each case as determined by the Currency Determination Agent in the manner provided in paragraph (f) or (g) below. (e) If the Holder of a Security denominated in any currency or currency unit shall have elected to be paid in another currency or currency unit as provided in paragraph (b) above, and a Conversion Event occurs with respect to such elected currency or currency unit, such Holder shall receive payment in the currency or currency unit in which payment would have been made in the absence of such election. If a Conversion Event occurs with respect to the currency or currency unit in which payment would have been made in the absence of such election, such Holder shall receive payment in Dollars as provided in paragraph (d) above. (f) The "Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Currency" shall be determined by the Currency Determination Agent and shall be obtained for each subsequent payment after the Conversion Date by converting the specified Foreign Currency into Dollars at the Market Exchange Rate on the Conversion Date. (g) The "Dollar Equivalent of the Currency Unit" shall be determined by the Currency Determination Agent and subject to the provisions of paragraph (h) below shall be the sum of each amount - 19 - obtained by converting the Specified Amount of each Component Currency into Dollars at the Market Exchange Rate for such Component Currency on the Valuation Date with respect to each payment. (h) For purposes of this Section 2.13 the following terms shall have the following meanings: A "Component Currency" shall mean any currency which, on the Conversion Date, was a component currency of the relevant currency unit, including, but not limited to, the ECU. A "Specified Amount" of a Component Currency shall mean the number of units of such Component Currency or fractions thereof which were represented in the relevant currency unit, including, but not limited to, the ECU, on the Conversion Date. If after the Conversion Date the official unit of any Component Currency is altered by way of combination or subdivision, the Specified Amount of such Component Currency shall be divided or multiplied in the same proportion. If after the Conversion Date two or more Component Currencies are consolidated into a single currency, the respective Specified Amounts of such Component Currencies shall be replaced by an amount in such single currency equal to the sum of the respective Specified Amounts of such consolidated Component Currencies expressed in such single currency, and such amount shall thereafter be a Specified Amount and such single currency shall thereafter be a Component Currency. If after the Conversion Date any Component Currency shall be divided into two or more currencies, the Specified Amount of such Component Currency shall be replaced by amounts of such two or more currencies, each of whose Dollar Equivalent at the Market Exchange Rate on the date of such replacement shall be equal to the Dollar Equivalent of the Specified Amount of such former Component Currency at the Market Exchange Rate on such date divided by the number of currencies into which such Component Currency was divided, and such amounts shall thereafter be Specified Amounts and such currencies shall thereafter be Component Currencies. If, after the Conversion Date of the relevant currency unit, including, but not limited to, the ECU, a Conversion Event (other than any event referred to above in this definition of "Specified Amount") occurs with respect to any Component Currency of such currency unit and is continuing on the applicable Valuation Date, the Specified Amount of such Component Currency shall, for purposes of calculating the Dollar Equivalent of the Currency Unit, be converted into Dollars at the Market Exchange Rate in effect on the Conversion Date of such Component Currency. "Election Date" shall mean any date for any series of Securities as specified pursuant to Section 2.03(11) by which the written election referred to in Section 2.13(b) may be made, such date to be not later than the regular record date for the earliest payment for which such election may be effective. - 20 - All decisions and determinations of the Currency Determination Agent regarding the Dollar Equivalent of the Foreign Currency, the Dollar Equivalent of the Currency Unit, the Market Exchange Rate and changes in the Specified Amounts as specified above shall be in its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and irrevocably binding upon the Corporation, the Trustee for the appropriate series of Securities and all Holders of such Securities denominated or payable in the relevant currency or currency units.

(a) If and so long as the Securities of any series (i) are denominated in a currency unit or a currency other than Dollars or (ii) may be payable in a currency unit or a currency other than Dollars, or so long as it is required under any other provision of this Indenture, then the Corporation will maintain with respect to each such series of Securities, or as so required, a Currency Determination Agent. The Corporation will cause the Currency Determination Agent to make the necessary foreign exchange determinations at the time and in the manner specified pursuant to Section 2.03 for the purpose of determining the applicable rate of exchange and for the purpose of converting the issued currency or currency unit into the applicable payment currency or currency unit for the payment of principal and interest, if any, pursuant to Section 2.13. - 21 - (b) No resignation of the Currency Determination Agent and no appointment of a successor Currency Determination Agent pursuant to this Section shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Currency Determination Agent as evidenced by a written instrument delivered to the Corporation and the Trustee of the appropriate series of Securities accepting such appointment executed by the successor Currency Determination Agent. (c) If the Currency Determination Agent shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of the Currency Determination Agent for any cause, with respect to the Securities of one or more series, the Corporation, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Currency Determination Agent or Currency Determination Agents with respect to the Securities of that or those series (it being understood that any such successor Currency Determination Agent may be appointed with respect to the Securities of one or more or all of such series and that at any time there shall only be one Currency Determination Agent with respect to the Securities of any particular series).

SECTION 3.02. Notices to Trustee. If the Corporation wants to redeem any Securities, it shall notify the Trustee of the redemption date and the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed in accordance with the terms of the Securities. If the redemption is of less than all the outstanding Securities of a series, the Corporation shall furnish to the Trustee a written statement signed by an Officer of the Corporation stating that with respect to that series there exists no Event of Default and no circumstance which, after notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default. The Corporation shall give the notice provided for in this Section at least 50 days before the redemption date. SECTION 3.03. Selection of Securities to be Redeemed. If, at the option of the Corporation, less than all the Securities of a series are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the Securities to be redeemed by a method the Trustee considers fair and appropriate, subject to any applicable stock exchange requirements. The Trustee shall make the selection from outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption. The Trustee may select for redemption portions of the principal of Securities that have a denomination larger than $1,000 (or the applicable minimum - 22 - denomination for such Securities in the event the Securities are payable in ECUs or a Foreign Currency or Currencies). Securities and portions of them it selects shall be in amounts of $1,000 (or the applicable minimum denomination for such Securities in the event the Securities are payable in ECUs or a Foreign Currency or Currencies) or a multiple of $1,000 (or the applicable minimum denomination for such Securities in the event the Securities are payable in ECUs or a Foreign Currency or Currencies). Provisions of this Indenture that apply to Securities called for redemption also apply to portions of Securities called for redemption. The Trustee for the Securities of any series to be redeemed shall promptly notify the Corporation in writing of the Securities of such series selected for redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Security redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Securities which has been or is to be redeemed.

At the Corporation's request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Corporation's name and at its expense. In such event the Corporation will provide the Trustee with the information required by clauses (1) through (5) above. SECTION 3.05. Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is mailed, Securities called for redemption become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price stated in the notice. Upon surrender to the Paying Agent, such - 23 - Securities shall be paid at the redemption price stated in the notice, plus accrued interest, if any, to the redemption date; provided, however, that any regular payment of interest becoming due on the redemption date shall be payable to the Holder of any such Security being redeemed as provided in the Security. SECTION 3.06. Deposit of Redemption Price. By the opening of business on the redemption date, the Corporation shall deposit with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest, if any, on all Securities to be redeemed on that date.

If upon any such consolidation, merger or transfer a Restricted Property would become subject to an attaching Lien that secures Debt, then, before the consolidation, merger or transfer occurs, the Corporation or the Guarantor, as the case may be, by supplemental indenture shall secure the Securities by a direct lien on the Restricted Property. The direct Lien shall have priority over all Liens on the Restricted Property except those already on it. The direct Lien may equally and ratably secure the Securities or the Guarantees and any other obligation of the Corporation, the Guarantor or a Subsidiary. However, the Corporation or the Guarantor, as the case may be, need not comply with this Section if: (1) upon the consolidation, merger or transfer the attaching Lien will secure the Securities or the Guarantees, as the case may be, equally and ratably with or prior to Debt secured by the attaching Lien; or (2) the Corporation or the Guarantor or a Restricted Subsidiary under any of the clauses (2) through (11) of Section 4.03 could create a Lien on the Restricted Property to secure Debt at least equal in amount to that secured by the attaching Lien. - 30 - ARTICLE 6 DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES SECTION 6.01. Events of Default. An "Event of Default" occurs with respect to a series of Securities if: (1) the Corporation defaults in the payment of interest on any Security of that series when the same becomes due and payable and the default continues for a period of 30 days; (2) the Corporation defaults in the payment of the principal of any Security of that series when the same becomes due and payable at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise; (3) the Corporation or the Guarantor fails to comply with any of its other agreements in the Guarantees or the Securities of that series or this Indenture for the benefit of that series and the default continues for the period and after the notice specified in this Section; (4) the Corporation or the Guarantor pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law: (A) commences a voluntary case, (B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case, (C) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property, or (D) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors; (5) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that: (A) is for relief against the Corporation or the Guarantor in an involuntary case, (B) appoints a Custodian of the Corporation or the Guarantor or for all or substantially all of the property of the Corporation or the Guarantor, or (C) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Corporation or the Guarantor, and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days; or (6) there occurs any other event specifically described as an Event of Default by the Securities of that series. - 31 - The term "Bankruptcy Law" means Title 11, United States Code, or any similar Federal or state law for the relief of debtors. The term "Custodian" means any receiver, trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law. A default under clause (3) is not an Event of Default with respect to a series of Securities until the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities of that series notify the Corporation and the Guarantor of the default and the Corporation or the Guarantor, as the case may be, does not cure the default within 90 days after receipt of the notice. The notice must specify the default, demand that it be remedied and state that the notice is a "Notice of Default." Subject to Sections 7.01 and 7.02 the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any default unless written notice thereof shall have been given to the Trustee by the Corporation, the Guarantor, the Paying Agent, the Holder of a Security or an agent of such Holder. SECTION 6.02. Acceleration. If an Event of Default with respect to a series of Securities occurs and is continuing, the Trustee, by notice to the Corporation and the Guarantor or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities of that series by notice to the Corporation, the Guarantor and the Trustee, may declare the principal (or, in the case of Discounted Securities, such amount of principal as may be provided for in such Securities) of and accrued interest, if any, on all the Securities of that series to be due and payable immediately. Upon such a declaration such principal and interest, if any, shall be due and payable immediately. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any series by notice to the Trustee may rescind an acceleration (and upon such rescission any Event of Default caused by such acceleration shall be deemed cured) with respect to that series and its consequences if all existing Events of Default with respect to the series have been cured or waived, if the rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree, and if all payments due to the Trustee and any predecessor Trustee under Section 7.07 have been made. SECTION 6.03. Other Remedies. If an Event of Default with respect to a series of Securities occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of (or, in the case of Discounted Securities, such amount of principal as may be provided for in such Securities) or interest, if any, on the Securities of that series or to enforce the performance of any provision of such Securities or this Indenture. The Trustee may maintain a proceeding even if it does not possess any of the Securities or does not produce any of them in the proceeding. A delay or omission by the Trustee or any Securityholder in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of acquiescence in the Event of Default. No remedy is - 32 - exclusive of any other remedy. All available remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law. SECTION 6.04. Waiver of Past Defaults. Subject to Section 9.02 the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of a series by notice to the Trustee may waive an existing Default or Event of Default with respect to that series and its consequences. When a Default or Event of Default is waived, it is cured and stops continuing, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto. SECTION 6.05. Control by Majority. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of a series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust of power conferred on it with respect to that series. However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or this Indenture, or, subject to Section 7.01, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the rights of other Holders of Securities of the same series or would involve the Trustee in personal liability. SECTION 6.06. Limitation on Suits. No Holder of a Security of any series may pursue any remedy with respect to this Indenture or the Securities unless: (1) the Holder gives to the Trustee written notice stating that an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of the series is continuing; (2) the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities of that series make a written request to the Trustee to pursue the remedy; (3) such Holder or Holders offer to the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against any loss, liability or expense; (4) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of the request and the offer of indemnity; and (5) during such 60-day period the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of that series do not give the Trustee a direction inconsistent with the request. A Securityholder may not use this Indenture to prejudice the rights of another Securityholder or to obtain a preference or priority over any other Securityholder. SECTION 6.07. Rights of Holders to Receive Payment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the right of any Holder to receive payment of principal of and interest, if any, - 33 - on the Security on or after the respective due dates expressed in the Security, or to bring suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective date, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of the Holder. SECTION 6.08. Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of Default in payment of interest or principal specified in Section 6.01(1) or (2) occurs and is continuing, subject to Sections 6.02 and 6.04 the Trustee may recover judgment in its own name and as trustee of an express trust against the Corporation and the Guarantor for the whole amount of principal and interest, if any, remaining unpaid. SECTION 6.09. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee and the Securityholders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Corporation or the Guarantor, or any of their creditors or property, and unless prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of a trustee in bankruptcy or other person performing similar functions. SECTION 6.10. Priorities. If the Trustee collects any money pursuant to this Article with respect to the Securities of any series, it shall pay out the money in the following order: First: to the Trustee for amounts due under Section 7.07; Second: to Holders of Securities of that series for amounts due and unpaid on such Securities for principal and interest, if any, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Securities for principal and interest, if any, respectively; and Third: to the Corporation. The Trustee may fix a record date and payment date for any payment to Securityholders pursuant to this Section. SECTION 6.11. Undertaking for Costs. In any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, a court in its discretion may require the filing by any party litigant in the suit other than the Trustee of an undertaking to pay the costs of the suit, and the court in its discretion may assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, against any party litigant in the suit including the Trustee, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by the party litigant. This Section does not apply to a suit by the Trustee, a suit by a Holder pursuant to - 34 - Section 6.07 or a suit by Holders of more than 10% in principal amount of the Securities of any series. ARTICLE 7 TRUSTEE SECTION 7.01. Duties of Trustee.

Individual Rights of Trustee, etc. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with the Corporation, the Guarantor or any of their affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee must comply with Sections 7.10 and 7.11. SECTION 7.04. Trustee's Disclaimer. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture or the Securities or the Guarantees, it shall not be accountable for the Corporation's use of the proceeds from the Securities, and it shall not be responsible for any statement in the Securities or in the Guarantees other than its certificate of authentication. SECTION 7.05. Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs with respect to a series of Securities and is continuing and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall mail to each Holder of Securities of that series notice of the Default within 90 days after it occurs. Except in the case of a default in payment on any Security, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Trust Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the interests of such Holders. SECTION 7.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders. If required pursuant to TIA Section 313(a), the Trustee, within 60 days after each May 15, shall mail to each Securityholder a brief report dated as of May 15 that complies with TIA Section 313(a). The Trustee also shall comply with the reporting obligations of TIA Section 313(b). - 36 - A copy of each report at the time of its mailing to Securityholders shall be filed with the SEC and each stock exchange on which the Securities are listed.

The Trustee shall notify the Corporation promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. The Corporation need not pay for any settlement made without its consent. The Corporation need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss or liability incurred by the Trustee through negligence or bad faith. To secure the Corporation's payment obligations in this Section, the Trustee shall have a senior claim to which the Securities are hereby made subordinate on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal of and interest, if any, on particular Securities. When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 6.01(4) or (5) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Law. SECTION 7.08. Replacement of Trustee. The Trustee may resign with respect to the Securities of one or more series by so notifying the Corporation. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of any series may remove the Trustee with respect to that series by so notifying the removed Trustee and may appoint a successor Trustee with the Corporation's consent. The Corporation may remove the Trustee if: (1) the Trustee fails to comply with Section 7.10; (2) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent; (3) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property; or (4) the Trustee otherwise becomes incapable of acting. If the Trustee resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of trustee for any reason, the Corporation shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. - 37 - A successor Trustee shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Corporation. Immediately after that, the retiring Trustee shall transfer all property held by it as Trustee for the benefit of the series with respect to which it is retiring to the successor Trustee, the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall then become effective, and the successor Trustee shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under this Indenture with respect to that series. A successor Trustee shall mail notice of its succession to each Holder of the Securities of the series affected. If pursuant to Section 2.03(5) a trustee, other than the Trustee initially named in this Indenture (or any successor thereto), is appointed with respect to one or more series of Securities, the Corporation, the Guarantor, the Trustee initially named in this Indenture (or any successor thereto) and such newly appointed trustee shall execute and deliver a supplement to this Indenture which shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the Trustee initially named in this Indenture (or any successor thereto) with respect to the Securities of any series as to which the Trustee is continuing as trustee hereunder shall continue to be vested in the Trustee initially named in this Indenture (or any successor thereto), and shall add to, supplement or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary or desirable to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each such trustee shall be trustee of a trust or trusts relating to the separate series of Securities as if it were acting under a separate indenture. If a successor Trustee with respect to a series of Securities does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Corporation or the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of that series may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. If the Trustee with respect to a series of Securities fails to comply with Section 7.10, any Holder of Securities of that series may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. If there are two or more Trustees at any time under this Indenture, each will be the Trustee of a separate trust held under this Indenture for the benefit of the series of Securities for which it is acting as Trustee and the rights and obligations of each Trustee will be determined as if it were acting under a separate indenture. SECTION 7.09. Successor Trustee by Merger, etc. If the Trustee consolidates with, merges or converts into or transfers all - 38 - or substantially all its corporate trust assets to another corporation, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation without any further act shall be the successor Trustee.

The Trustee shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $5,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition. The Trustee shall comply with TIA Section 310(b), provided that the question whether the Trustee has a conflicting interest shall be determined as if each series of Securities were separate issues of securities issued under separate indentures. First Trust of Illinois, National Association also is the trustee under (i) an indenture dated March 15, 1981, under which the Corporation (as successor by merger to Martin Marietta Corporation) has issued $175,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 7% Debentures due 2011, (ii) an indenture dated March 17, 1988, under which the Corporation (as successor by merger to Martin Marietta Corporation) has issued $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 9% Notes due 2003, (iii) an indenture dated March 15, 1993, under which the Corporation (as successor by merger to Martin Marietta Corporation) has issued $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 6 1/2% Notes due 2003, $150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 7 3/8% Debentures due 2013 and $150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 7 3/4% Debentures due 2023, (iv) an indenture dated January 15, 1992, under which the Guarantor has issued $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 9.125%, Debentures due 2022 and (v) an indenture dated September 1, 1993, under which the Guarantor has issued $250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 7.625% Notes due 2004, $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 8.375% Debentures due 2024 and $150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 7.625% Debentures due 2025.

The Corporation and the Guarantor may amend or supplement this Indenture or the Securities without notice to any Securityholder but with the written consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities of each series affected and the Trustee shall execute any such amendment or supplement at the direction of the Corporation and the Guarantor. The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of each series affected may waive compliance by the Corporation or the Guarantor with any provision of this Indenture or the Securities of each such series or the related Guarantees without notice to any Securityholder. However, without the consent of each Securityholder affected, an amendment, supplement or waiver, including a waiver pursuant to Section 6.04, may not: (1) reduce the amount of Securities of any series whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver; (2) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Security; (3) reduce the principal of or extend the fixed maturity of any Security; (4) reduce the portion of the principal amount of a Discounted Security payable upon acceleration of its maturity; or (5) make any Security payable in a currency or currency unit other than that stated in the Security.

However, any such Holder or subsequent Holder may revoke the consent as to his Security or portion of the Security. The Trustee must receive the notice of revocation before the date the amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective. - 44 - After an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes effective, it shall bind every Securityholder unless it makes a change described in clauses (2), (3), (4) or (5) of Section 9.02. In that case the amendment, supplement or waiver shall bind each Holder of a Security who has consented to it and every subsequent Holder of a Security or portion of a Security that evidences the same debt as the consenting Holder's Security. SECTION 9.05. Notation on or Exchange of Securities. If an amendment, supplement or waiver changes the terms of a Security, the Trustee may require the Holder of the Security to deliver it to the Trustee. The Trustee may place an appropriate notation on the Security about the changed terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Corporation or the Trustee so determine, the Corporation in exchange for the Security shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Security that reflects the changed terms. SECTION 9.06. Trustee to Sign Amendments, etc. The Trustee shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article if the amendment, supplement or waiver does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or immunities of the Trustee.

If a regular record date is a Legal Holiday in the state or other jurisdiction in which the Trustee maintains its principal place of business, then the record date shall be the next succeeding day that is not a Legal Holiday in such state or other jurisdiction. SECTION 11.09. Governing Law. The laws of the State of Maryland shall govern this Indenture and the Securities. SECTION 11.10. No Adverse Interpretation of Other Agreements. This Indenture may not be used to interpret another indenture, loan or debt agreement of the Corporation, the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of the Corporation or the Guarantor. Any such indenture, loan or debt agreement may not be used to interpret this Indenture. - 50 - SECTION 11.11. No Recourse Against Others. A director, officer, employee or stockholder (other than the Corporation as issuer of the Debt Securities), as such, of the Corporation or the Guarantor shall not have any liability for any obligation of the Corporation or the Guarantor under the Securities or the Guarantees or the Indenture or for any claim based on, with respect to or by reason of such obligations or their creation. All such liability is waived and released as a condition of, and as partial consideration for, the execution of this Indenture, the issue of the Securities and the execution of the Guarantees. SECTION 11.12. Securities in a Foreign Currency. Unless otherwise specified in an Officers' Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 2.01 of this Indenture with respect to a particular series of Securities, whenever for purposes of this Indenture any action may be taken by the holders of a specified percentage in aggregate principal amount of Securities of all series at the time outstanding and, at such time, there are outstanding Securities of any series which are denominated in a Foreign Currency, then the principal amount of Securities of such series which shall be deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of taking such action shall be that amount of Dollars that could be obtained for such amount at the Market Exchange Rate on the record date fixed for such action or, if no record date is fixed, on the New York Banking Day immediately preceding the date of such action. SECTION 11.13. Judgment Currency. If, for the purpose of obtaining a judgment in any court with respect to any obligation of the Corporation hereunder or under any Security or any related coupon it shall become necessary to convert into any other currency or currency unit any amount in the currency or currency unit due hereunder or under such Security or coupon then such conversion shall be made by the Currency Determination Agent at the Market Exchange Rate as in effect on the date of entry of the judgment (the "Judgment Date"). If pursuant to any such judgment, conversion shall be made on a date (the "Substitute Date") other than the Judgment Date and there shall occur a change between the Market Exchange Rate as in effect on the Judgment Date and the Market Exchange Rate as in effect on the Substitute Date, the Corporation agrees to pay such additional amounts (if any) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid is equal to the amount in such other currency or currency unit which, when converted at the Market Exchange Rate as in effect on the Judgment Date, is the amount due hereunder or under such Security or coupon. Any amount due from the Corporation under this Section shall be due as a separate debt and is not to be affected by or merged into any judgment being obtained for any other sums due hereunder or with respect to any Security or coupon. In no event, however, shall the Corporation be required to pay more in the currency or currency unit due hereunder or under such Security or coupon at the Market Exchange Rate as in effect on the Judgment Date than the amount of currency or currency unit stated to be due hereunder or under such Security or coupon so that in any event the Corporation's obligations hereunder or under such Security or coupon will be - 51 - effectively maintained as obligations in such currency or currency unit, and the Corporation shall be entitled to withhold (or be reimbursed for, as the case may be) any excess of the amount actually realized upon any such conversion on the Substitute Date over the amount due and payable on the Judgment Date. SECTION 11.14. Successors. All agreements of the Corporation and the Guarantor in this Indenture and the Securities and the related Guarantees shall bind its successor. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successor. SECTION 11.15. Duplicate Originals. The parties may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. One signed copy is enough to prove this Indenture. SECTION 11.16. Acts of Holders; Record Dates. (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Corporation. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the "Act" of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 7.1(e)) conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Corporation, if made in the manner provided in this Section. (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgements of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to such officer the execution thereof. Where such execution is a by a signer acting in a capacity other than such signer's individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of such signer's authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems sufficient. (c) The Corporation may, in the circumstances permitted by the TIA, fix any day as the record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Securities of any series entitled to give or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, or to vote on any action, authorized or permitted to be given or taken by Holders of Securities of such series. If not set by the Corporation prior to - 52 - the first solicitation of a Holder of Securities of such series made by any person in respect of any such action, or, in the case of any such vote, prior to such vote, the record date for any such action or vote shall be the 30th day (or, if later, the date of the most recent list of Holders required to be provided pursuant to Section 2.6) prior to such first solicitation or vote, as the case may be. With regard to any record date for action to be taken by the Holders of one or more series of Securities, only the Holders of Securities of such series on such date (or their duly designated proxies) shall be entitled to give or take, or vote on, the relevant action. - 53 - SIGNATURES Attest: LOCKHEED MARTIN CORPORATION ______________________________ By: ___________________________(Seal) Secretary Attest: LOCKHEED MARTIN TACTICAL SYSTEMS, INC., as Guarantor ______________________________ By:___________________________(Seal) Secretary Attest: FIRST TRUST OF ILLINOIS, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as Trustee ______________________________ By:___________________________(Seal) Secretary - 54 -

Ladies and Gentlemen:
    
     We have acted as counsel to Lockheed Martin Corporation, a Maryland
corporation (the "Corporation"), in connection with the filing with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") of a Registration
Statement on Form S-3 (Reg. No. 333-01939) (as amended, the "Registration
Statement") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), in respect
of the Corporation's Debt Securities to be issued from time to time pursuant to
Rule 415 under the Act. In this capacity we have reviewed the Charter and By-
Laws of the Corporation, the form of Indenture to be entered into by and between
the Corporation, Lockheed Martin Tactical Systems, Inc. and First Trust of
Illinois, National Association (the "Trustee") (as supplemented or modified by
the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, collectively, the "Indenture"), the
Registration Statement including the exhibits thereto, the corporate proceedings
of the Corporation relating to the authorization of the issuance of the Debt
Securities and such certificates and other documents as we deemed necessary or
advisable for the purposes of this opinion.      

     Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Debt Securities,
when duly authorized and executed in accordance with the terms of the
resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Corporation, the terms
of the resolutions adopted by the Finance Committee of the Board of Directors
of the Corporation and the terms of the Indenture, authenticated by the
Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and issued and delivered
against payment therefor, will be legally issued and will constitute valid
and binding obligations of the Corporation entitled to the benefits of the
Indenture.
