March 12, 2021
Dear Fellow Stockholders:
It is my pleasure to invite you to Lockheed Martin's 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on Thursday, April 22, 2021, at 8:00 a.m. EDT. The meeting will once again be held virtually via live webcast to facilitate full stockholder participation while protecting health and safety. Information on how to participate in the Annual Meeting can be found on page 85.
Resiliency Through a Global Pandemic
The global pandemic has presented unprecedented business challenges and continues to inflict personal loss for so many, including within the Lockheed Martin family. Throughout the crisis, our priorities have been to ensure the health and welfare of our employees and their families, continue to perform and deliver for our customers and our national security, and use our resources and leadership as a company to assist our communities, our country and our allies. We took swift action early in the pandemic to address the threat and have continued to do so since, including maintaining robust health and safety protocols in the workplace, delivering personal protective equipment to frontline workers and supporting our communities and suppliers. Despite the challenges presented by COVID-19, we continued to hire through the pandemic, welcoming more than 11,000 new employees in 2020.
Strong 2020 Financial Performance
Despite the challenges of 2020, we’re proud to report that the resiliency of our employees to adapt and continue to deliver for our customers resulted in another year of strong financial results, including record sales and earnings per share from continuing operations and increased backlog. We continued our strong cash performance, generating $8.2 billion in cash from operations after discretionary pension contributions of $1.0 billion. And we returned $3.9 billion in cash to stockholders through dividends and share repurchases. For more detailed information on our financial results, please review our proxy statement and the enclosed 2020 Annual Report.
Leadership Transitions
Following a remarkable 38-year career at Lockheed Martin, Marillyn A. Hewson ended her service as Executive Chairman and as a member of the Board on March 1, 2021. We are extremely grateful for her many valuable contributions to our company and the Board and she leaves behind a legacy as one of Lockheed Martin's most successful and respected leaders. In addition to my transition to the role of President and CEO in June 2020, several other executives were also elevated to new executive leadership positions as part of a disciplined leadership transition, reflecting the Corporation’s deliberate and thorough succession planning. The board and the executive leadership team also want to acknowledge the unfortunate passing of Michele Evans, former EVP, Aeronautics in early 2021. Michele was an exceptional leader and a champion for diversity and inclusion and has left a great legacy of future leaders she inspired.
On behalf of the entire board of directors, I want to thank you for your continued investment in Lockheed Martin. Your vote is important. I urge you to promptly cast your vote in accordance with the board's recommendations.
Sincerely,
https://cdn.kscope.io/6fc0258ee08fe7d9135f6e9b0c2b0f4e-sig_taicletj1.jpg

Support for Our Employees, Suppliers and Communities Impacted by COVID-19
Lockheed Martin continues to support the critical security needs of our nation and its allies during the COVID-19 global pandemic while also providing support to industrial base suppliers, front-line medical workers and local communities to help with relief and response efforts. We recognize that the rapid spread of COVID-19 and its wide-ranging impacts have caused severe disruption across society and tragic loss of life around the world. Managing the impacts of COVID-19 on our employees, suppliers and communities has been a key priority for the Corporation and our Board in 2020. In response to this crisis, the Corporation is guided by and operates with three clear priorities: (i) we will continue to protect the health and safety of our men and women on the job and their families; (ii) we will continue to perform and deliver for our customers because what they do for our national security, global communities, and infrastructure is critical to our nation and our allies; and (iii) we will do our part to use our innovation, resources, and leadership as a company to assist our communities and our country.
Employee Health and Safety
Recognizing that our workforce is our most valuable asset in supporting our national security mission, we have taken action to protect its health and safety:
We have fulfilled our pledge to cover 100% of medical expenses related to COVID-19 for those employees and their families participating in company health plans.
We employed a number of methods to reduce the concentration of employees in office and production environments who are doing work deemed essential by the U.S. government. We implemented teleworking, minimum staffing and social distancing policies for our employees consistent with current federal guidance as they continued to support national security.
We provided employees with personal protective equipment, instituted new cleaning procedures including how tools are handled and, in some places, how areas are cleaned between shifts, restricted travel and implemented strict rules governing who can visit our facilities.
We enacted enhanced contingency plans in our factories to reduce the likelihood of an interruption in production of critical security programs.
Supply Chain Commitment
Throughout the pandemic, we helped ensure a healthy supply base, accelerating payments to more than 10,100 suppliers, including nearly 6,200 small businesses across all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and 47 nations.
During 2020, the Department of Defense announced it would increase progress payment rates to large businesses from 80 percent to 90 percent, accelerating payments for the completion of work in recognition of the challenges posed by COVID-19. During 2020, Lockheed Martin flowed all of the accelerated payments it received from the Department of Defense to its supply chain with a focus on small businesses and those at-risk.
We have continued in 2021 to monitor COVID-19 impacts and to accelerate cash to at-risk suppliers and small businesses, working with our U.S. government partners and suppliers, to meet commitments vital to national security.
Aid to Our Communities and International Partners
https://cdn.kscope.io/6fc0258ee08fe7d9135f6e9b0c2b0f4e-icon_charityxpg51.jpg
We made nearly $22 million in charitable contributions, as well as donations of meals for local communities surrounding Lockheed Martin locations, and personal protective equipment for doctors, nurses, and first responders.
https://cdn.kscope.io/6fc0258ee08fe7d9135f6e9b0c2b0f4e-icon_investingxpg51.jpg
We supported COVID-19 related initiatives around the world including in 16 different countries other than the U.S.
https://cdn.kscope.io/6fc0258ee08fe7d9135f6e9b0c2b0f4e-icon_mealsdonatedaixpg51.jpg
We donated the use of our facilities for crisis-related activities including critical medical supply storage, distribution, and COVID-19 testing, where needed and practical.
https://cdn.kscope.io/6fc0258ee08fe7d9135f6e9b0c2b0f4e-icon_hiredxpg51.jpg
We have continued to recruit and hire new employees to fill key roles around the country, often virtually, to advance technologies that will shape the future and keep us an employer of choice.
https://cdn.kscope.io/6fc0258ee08fe7d9135f6e9b0c2b0f4e-icon_gownsdeliveredxpg51.jpg
We provided corporate air support to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the National Marrow Donor Program.
https://cdn.kscope.io/6fc0258ee08fe7d9135f6e9b0c2b0f4e-icon_corporatexpg51.jpg

Proxy Statement Summary
Executive Compensation Highlights
2020 CEO Transition and Pay Decisions
On March 12, 2020, the Board elected James D. Taiclet to succeed Marillyn A. Hewson as President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Corporation, effective June 15, 2020. Following the recommendation of the Management Development and Compensation Committee (Compensation Committee), the Board of Directors approved the 2020 compensation arrangements for Mr. Taiclet as President and CEO, which was comprised of an annual base salary of $1,700,000, an annual incentive target of 175% of salary for 2020 under the Lockheed Martin Corporation Amended and Restated 2006 Management Incentive Compensation Plan (MICP), to be prorated based on time in the role; and an annual long-term incentive (LTI) award opportunity for 2020 of $14.0 million, allocated 50% in Performance Stock Units (PSUs), 30% in Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) and 20% in the cash-based Long-Term Incentive Performance award (LTIP). Additionally, the Board approved a replacement award of RSUs to offset forfeited unvested incentive equity awards from his former employer. These arrangements are further detailed on pages 42 and 43.
Mr. Taiclet has served as a member of the Board since 2018, with his tenure beginning prior to his appointment as President and CEO. Upon the commencement of his employment with the Corporation, Mr. Taiclet did not receive any additional compensation for serving as a member of the Board and his unvested equity awards under the Lockheed Martin Corporation Amended and Restated Directors Equity Plan were forfeited.
2020 Pay and Performance
A substantial portion of compensation paid to our named executive officers (NEOs) is performance-based. We use the 50th percentile of our comparator group to set target compensation but allow for payments to exceed or fall below the target level based upon actual performance. This outcome is consistent with our pay-for-performance philosophy to set pay and targets at market levels, but pay incentive compensation to reflect actual performance.
Based on our strong short- and long-term financial and operational performance, as manifested in record sales, segment operating profit, and earnings per share from continuing operations for the year, our 2020 annual and 2018-2020 LTI plans paid out above their respective target levels. The Board did not make any modifications to our compensation programs or positive adjustments in response to COVID-19.

Proxy Statement Summary
Enterprise Risk and Sustainability
Sustainability Governance Structure
We take an integrated approach to managing corporate culture, ethics and business integrity, governance, and sustainability issues through a risk management lens. Oversight of ESG matters follows our formal sustainability governance structure. This structure includes our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee (Governance Committee), the executive leadership team and a working group of key functional leaders who partner to implement sustainability policies and processes across our operations. The Governance Committee is chartered by the Board of Directors to lead its oversight responsibilities relating to the Corporation’s ethical conduct, human rights, environmental stewardship, corporate culture, philanthropy, workforce diversity, health and safety.
Relevant Issues and Strategic Priorities
Through 2020, we have focused on five core sustainability issues and objectives, which are set forth below. These five core issues include ESG topics that represent stakeholder priorities and drivers of long-term value creation. The independent directors who serve on the Governance Committee review performance against the Sustainability Management Plan, a set of targets that correspond to objectives associated with our five core sustainability issues. The Governance Committee also approves the Corporation’s Code of Conduct (www.lockheedmartin.com/en-us/who-we-are/ethics/code-of-ethics.html) and annual Sustainability Report (sustainability.lockheedmartin.com).
 Sustainability Mission
Our sustainability mission is to foster innovation, integrity and security to protect the environment, strengthen communities and propel responsible growth.

https://cdn.kscope.io/6fc0258ee08fe7d9135f6e9b0c2b0f4e-p31_coresustainability1.jpg
In 2019-2020, we underwent a core issues assessment and surveyed our stakeholders to inform our next generation of sustainability priorities. This updated core issue model, previewed on page 34, focuses our efforts in the areas that provide the greatest value to our stakeholders and our business. Our 2020 Sustainability Report will include the revised goals and key performance indicators (KPIs) that reflect the stakeholder feedback we have received, internal and external trends, and the continued evolution of our business to create value well into the future.

Proposal

Election of Directors
https://cdn.kscope.io/6fc0258ee08fe7d9135f6e9b0c2b0f4e-image1181.jpg
•    Diverse slate of directors with broad leadership and customer experience.
•    Ten of our eleven director-nominees are independent.
•    Average director tenure is six years with six new directors in five years.
The Board unanimously recommends a vote FOR each of the director-nominees.
Board Composition, Qualifications and Diversity
We have no agreements obligating the Corporation to nominate a particular candidate as a director, and none of our directors represents a special interest or a particular stockholder or group of stockholders.
At Lockheed Martin, we recognize diversity and inclusion as a business imperative and strategic asset to our investors. We believe that our business accomplishments are a result of the efforts of our employees around the world, and that a diverse employee population will result in a better understanding of our customers’ needs. Our success with a diverse workforce also informs our views about the value of a board of directors that has persons of diverse skills, experiences and backgrounds. To this end, the Board seeks to identify candidates with areas of knowledge or experience that will expand or complement the Board’s existing expertise in overseeing a technologically advanced global security and aerospace company. While the Corporation does not have a formal policy on Board diversity, our Governance Guidelines place a great emphasis on diversity, and our Governance Committee actively considers diversity in recruitment and nominations of director candidates. The current composition of our Board reflects those efforts and the importance of diversity to our Board. Diversity in skills and backgrounds ensures that the widest range of options and viewpoints are expressed in the boardroom.
Board Attendance
In 2020, the Board met a total of 11 times. All directors on the Board during 2020 attended more than 75 percent of the total Board and committee meetings to which they were assigned and overall attendance was greater than 97 percent. Board members are encouraged to attend the annual meeting of stockholders and all incumbent directors attended the 2020 virtual annual meeting.

Summary of Director-Nominees’ Core Competencies
We consider current Board skills, background, experience, tenure and anticipated retirements to identify gaps that may need to be filled through the Board refreshment process. The following chart summarizes the core competencies that the Board considers valuable to effective governance and successful oversight of our corporate strategy, and illustrates how the current Board members individually and collectively represent these key competencies. The lack of an indicator for a particular item does not mean that the director does not possess that qualification, skill or experience, rather, the indicator represents that the item is a core competency that the director brings to the Board.

Proposal 1: Election of Directors

Board Effectiveness, Evaluations and Refreshment
Board composition is a critical area of focus for the Board. Having the right mix of people who bring diverse perspectives, business and professional experiences and competencies as well as professional integrity, sound judgment and collegiality, provides a foundation for robust dialogue, informed advice and collaboration in the boardroom. The Board strives to ensure an environment that encourages diverse critical thinking and values innovative, strategic discussions to achieve a higher level of success for the Corporation and its stockholders. The Governance Committee screens and recommends candidates for nomination by the full Board. The Governance Committee uses a variety of methods to help identify potential board candidates with the desired skills and background needed for the Corporation’s business, including informal networks, internal resources and other channels.
The Governance Committee reviews both the short- and long-term strategies of the Corporation to determine what current and future skills and experience are required of the Board in exercising its oversight function and in the context of our strategic priorities. Our internal executive search team compiles a list of prospective director candidates reflecting the Board's criteria, qualifications and experience, keeping in mind its commitment to diversity. Candidates are identified from this source pool by the Chairman and the Governance Committee and may be interviewed by the Chairman and independent Lead Director, who also chairs the Governance Committee. While there is no formal Board policy with regard to the consideration of diversity in identifying director nominees, the source pool intentionally includes candidates with diverse backgrounds to further enhance the Board's diversity. Our Board believes that a balance of director diversity and tenure is a strategic asset to our investors. The range of our Board's tenure encompasses directors who have historic institutional knowledge of Lockheed Martin and the competitive environment, complemented by newer directors with varied backgrounds and skills and fresh perspectives.
Board Refreshment Elements
Governance Committee Review of Board Candidates
The Board seeks a diverse group of candidates who, at a minimum, possess the background, skills, expertise, competencies and time to make a significant contribution to the Board. The Governance Guidelines (available at www.lockheedmartin.com/corporate-governance) list criteria against which candidates may be judged. In addition, the Governance Committee considers, among other things:
•    input from the Board’s self-assessment process to prioritize areas of expertise that were identified;
•    investor feedback and perceptions;
•    the candidates’ skills and competencies to ensure they are aligned to the Corporation’s future strategic challenges and
opportunities;
•    the needs of the Board in light of Board retirements; and
•    a balance between public company and government customer-related experience.
During the process of identifying and selecting director nominees, the Governance Committee screens and recommends candidates for nomination by the full Board. For incumbent directors, the Governance Committee also considers attendance, past performance on the Board and contributions to the Board and their respective committees. The Bylaws currently provide that the size of the Board may range from 10 to 14 members.
Director candidates also may be identified by stockholders and will be evaluated under the same criteria applied to other director nominees and considered by the Governance Committee. Information on the process and requirements for stockholder nominees may be found in Sections 1.10 and 1.11 of our Bylaws on the Corporation’s website at www.lockheedmartin.com/corporate-governance.
Board Committee Assignments
In February of each year, the Governance Committee reviews the membership, tenure, leadership and commitments of each of the committees and considers possible changes given the qualifications and skill sets of members on the Board or a desire for committee rotation or refreshment. The Governance Committee also takes into consideration the membership requirements and responsibilities set forth in each of the respective committee charters and the Governance Guidelines as well as any upcoming vacancies on the Board due to our mandatory retirement age. The Governance Committee recommends to the Board any proposed changes to committee assignments and leadership to be made effective at the next annual meeting of stockholders. The Governance Committee also reviews the operation of the Board generally, and based on its recommendation and based on Board feedback, effective September 25, 2020, the Executive Committee, which was not being used, was eliminated.

Proposal 1: Election of Directors
Annual Performance Assessment
The Board conducts a self-assessment of its performance and effectiveness as well as that of its committees on an annual basis. The self-assessment helps the Governance Committee to track progress in certain areas targeted for improvement from year-to-year and to identify ways to enhance the Board’s and its committees’ effectiveness. The evaluation process includes the following steps:
1Annual Written Questionnaire
Open-ended questions to solicit candid feedback. Topics covered include:
Board meeting content and virtual format
Board culture
Board leadership structure and CEO transition
Board composition, selection and diversity
Potential skills gaps for identifying board candidates
Committee effectiveness
Evaluation of risks, including COVID-19 response
Peer assessment to elicit feedback on the performance of individual directors
2One-on-One Discussions with Independent Lead Director
Every few years, including in 2019 and 2020, the independent Lead Director conducts separate, one-on-one discussions with each director to discuss any additional feedback or perspectives.
3Committee/Board Private Sessions
The Governance Committee and each other committee and the full board review the results of the evaluations in private session. The board discussion is led by the independent Lead Director.
4Feedback Incorporated
Continued streamlining Board committee structure by eliminating the Executive Committee
Added additional site visit of classified programs
Added additional directors with cybersecurity, CEO and senior military experience

Robust Onboarding and Continuing Education
New directors are provided a comprehensive orientation about the Corporation, including our business operations, strategy and governance. New directors have one-on-one sessions with the CEO, other directors and other members of senior management. Members of our senior management regularly review with the Board the operating plan of each of our business segments and the Corporation as a whole. Although disrupted beginning in March 2020 by COVID-19, the Board also conducts periodic site visits to our facilities as part of its regularly scheduled Board meetings and directors are encouraged to visit sites on an ad hoc basis and meet one-on-one with members of senior management and other employees. Directors are encouraged to attend outside director continuing education programs sponsored by educational and other institutions to assist them in staying abreast of developments in corporate governance and critical issues relating to the operation of public company boards.
Our Director Tenure Guidelines
Mandatory Retirement AgeA director must retire at the annual meeting following his or her 75th birthday.
Term LimitsWe do not have term limits for directors as we believe implementing term limitations may prevent the Board from taking advantage of insight that longer tenure brings.
Employment ChangeDirectors should expect to resign upon any significant change in principal employment or responsibilities.
Failed ElectionDirectors must offer to resign as a result of a failed stockholder vote under majority voting policy.

Corporate Governance
Lockheed Martin believes good governance is integral to achieving long-term stockholder value. The Board’s primary role is to oversee management and represent the interests of stockholders. Directors are expected to attend Board meetings, the meetings of the committees on which they serve and the annual meeting of stockholders. The Board and its committees regularly schedule and hold executive sessions without any members of management present. Between meetings, directors interact with the Chairman, President and CEO, the independent Lead Director and other members of management and are available to provide advice and counsel to management.
Independent Lead Director
The Board believes that having a strong, independent Lead Director role is important to sound corporate governance. In accordance with our Bylaws and Governance Guidelines, the independent members of the Board annually elect one of the independent directors to serve as the Lead Director by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors who have been determined to be "independent" for purposes of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) listing standards. Daniel F. Akerson has served as the independent Lead Director since April 2019. The Board has structured the role of the independent Lead Director to further enhance the functioning of the Board and with sufficient authority to serve as a counterbalance to management. The responsibilities of the role, as specified in the Bylaws include to:
    preside as chair at Board meetings while in executive sessions of the non-management members of the Board or executive sessions of the independent directors or if the Chairman is not present;
    determine the frequency and timing of executive sessions of non-management directors and report to the Chairman and CEO on all relevant matters arising from those sessions, and invite the Chairman and CEO to join the executive session for further discussion as appropriate;
    consult with the Chairman and committee chairs regarding the topics for and schedules of the meetings of the Board and committees and approve the topics for and schedules of Board meetings;
    review and approve all Board and committee agendas (in addition to each committee chair) and provide input to management on the scope and quality of information sent to the Board;
    assist with recruitment of director candidates and, along with the Chairman, extend invitations to potential directors to join the Board;
    act as liaison between the Board and management and among the directors and the committees of the Board;
    serve as an ex-officio member of each committee if not otherwise a member of the committee;
    serve as the point of contact for stockholders and others to communicate with the Board;
    recommend to the Board and committees the retention of advisors and consultants who report directly to the Board;
    call a special meeting of the Board or of the independent directors at any time, at any place and for any purpose; and
    perform all other duties as may be assigned by the Board from time to time.

Corporate Governance
Message from the Independent Lead Director
I have served as Lead Director since April 2019 and in that role also chair the independent Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Since 2019 we have added two new independent directors to the Board. In 2019, Debra L. Reed-Klages became a director, bringing valuable chief executive officer experience as well as expertise in risk management and environmental sustainability. In early 2020, Retired Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Joseph F. Dunford, Jr. joined our Board bringing additional valuable insight of our core customer, including customer experience with our programs and technologies. They have both already been tremendous assets to the Board. Ensuring that we continue to benefit from diverse perspectives in the boardroom continues to be an important element of our corporate governance framework.

Daniel F. Akerson, Independent Lead Director
Leadership Transition
One of the Board's most important responsibilities is succession planning and choosing the right CEO to lead the Corporation. A great deal of Board focus and attention went into the selection of James D. Taiclet as the Chairman, President and CEO to lead the Corporation following Marillyn Hewson's decision to retire. I have worked closely with Jim and Marillyn during the transition and we have received positive feedback from employees, investors and other key stakeholders on the transition.
Board Response to COVID-19
During 2020, the Board has been actively engaged in overseeing management's response to COVID-19. The Board receives updates at least monthly and it has been a recurring discussion topic at Board meetings. The Board approved an increase to the Corporation's 2020 charitable contributions budget in support of COVID-19 efforts. The Audit Committee has been closely monitoring potential risks related to COVID-19, including ensuring management had the resources needed for a successful year-end audit, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has continued to review the effect of COVID-19 on employee safety and health.
Continued Independent Oversight and Engagement
Each year, our Bylaws and Corporate Governance Guidelines mandate that the independent members of the Board elect an independent director to serve as the Lead Director by the affirmative vote of a majority of the independent directors, meaning those who have been determined to be “independent” for purposes of the New York Stock Exchange listing standards. I am honored to have been selected again to serve in this role for 2021. I look forward to continuing to work closely with our Chairman, President and CEO and contributing to our Board’s strong oversight as Lead Director and to engagement with stockholders. I welcome your comments. Stockholders and other interested parties may communicate with me by email at Lead.Director@lmco.com.
Board Leadership Structure
The Board believes that it must be independent and must provide strong and effective oversight. The Board also believes that the independent Board members should have the flexibility to respond to changing circumstances and choose the board leadership structure that best fits the then-current situation. As a result, the roles of the Chairman and the CEO have been split from time to time to facilitate leadership transitions, while at other times the roles have been combined.
In consultation with the Board, on March 12, 2020, Ms. Hewson announced her plans to step down as President and CEO of the Corporation, subject to approval of the Board. Ms. Hewson expressed her willingness to serve as Executive Chairman of the Board to assist in the transition. The Board reviewed its leadership structure in connection with Ms. Hewson's announcement to step down as President and CEO. The Board determined that the transition to the new President and CEO would be best accomplished by having Ms. Hewson serve as Executive Chairman to assist in the transition effective June 15, 2020. This resulted in a separation of the roles of Chairman and CEO during 2020. Ms. Hewson served in the Executive Chairman role until March 1, 2021, when she retired from the Board.
Effective March 1, 2021, the independent directors elected President and CEO James D. Taiclet as Chairman, President and CEO. As it does annually, the Board of Directors reviewed the Corporation's leadership structure, including benchmarking data of the leadership structure of other large companies and industry peers and stockholder proposal trends for separating the roles. At present, the Board believes that the combination of the roles, along with the robust authority given to the experienced independent Lead Director, Dan Akerson, effectively maintains independent oversight of management. The Board consists entirely of independent directors, other than Mr. Taiclet, and exercises a strong, independent oversight function through frequent executive sessions, independent Board committees and having a strong independent Lead Director with clearly delineated and comprehensive duties. The Board believes there is value in presenting a single face to our customers through the combined Chairman and CEO role and that this structure and having the Board and management operate under the unified leadership of the highly experienced Mr. Taiclet best positions the Corporation to successfully implement its strategy.

Corporate Governance
The independent directors will continue to review the leadership structure on an ongoing basis, at least annually, to provide effective risk management and to ensure that it continues to meet the needs of the Corporation and supports the generation of stockholder value over the long-term. Information regarding the CEO transition is provided under the caption "Talent Management and Succession Planning" on page 24.
Executive Sessions
Generally, each meeting agenda of the Board and each committee includes an executive session of the non-management directors. The Governance Guidelines require that at least three Board meetings per year will include an executive session of the non-management directors. In each case, these sessions include a discussion of the performance of the CEO. The independent Lead Director presides during the executive sessions of the Board, and will report the results to the Chairman and CEO on all relevant matters, or invite the Chairman and CEO to join the executive session for further discussion, as appropriate. If the group of non-management directors includes directors who are not independent directors, at least one executive session including only independent directors will be scheduled each year. The respective chairman of each committee presides during the committee executive sessions.
Committees of the Board of Directors
The Board has four standing committees: Audit, Classified Business and Security (CBS Committee), Management Development and Compensation (Compensation Committee) and Nominating and Corporate Governance (Governance Committee). Based on Board feedback and the recommendation of the Governance Committee, effective September 25, 2020, the Executive Committee, which was not being used, was eliminated. The Board considered survey data which showed that four standing committees is most prevalent among our peer companies. Charters for each committee are available on the Corporation’s website at www.lockheedmartin.com/corporate-governance. In addition to these committees, the Board may establish other standing or special committees as may be necessary to carry out its responsibilities. Descriptions of each of the standing Committees are set forth below.

Corporate Governance
Enterprise Risk Management
Our risk management philosophy is to balance risk and reward within the risk tolerance of management and the Board, taking into account the Corporation's operations and long-term strategy. This is accomplished through risk management practices, our core values and our Code of Conduct, each of which reinforces a risk transparent culture. The Board and its committees receive risk updates throughout the year. Executive management provides updates on risks managed at the Enterprise level. Business segment management provides updates on risks to individual business segment objectives. Additional information regarding the Board's role in enterprise risk management is provided on page 33.
Cybersecurity
Cybersecurity is included in the Corporation’s enterprise risk management process and is overseen by the Board. The Board receives a briefing from senior leadership on cybersecurity and information security twice a year or more frequently as needed (either orally or in writing). The Classified Business and Security Committee also is briefed by senior management on the security of classified cyber data and information and the security of suppliers and the global supply chain within the Corporation’s classified business. Lockheed Martin takes a variety of precautions to protect our systems and data, including that of our customers and third parties, which includes threat detection and cybersecurity mitigation plans. Lockheed Martin provides annual training for our employees on the protection of sensitive information and on how to identify and prevent a successful “phishing” attack. We also have a corporate-wide counterintelligence and insider threat detection program to proactively identify external and internal threats and mitigate these threats in a timely manner. Lockheed Martin maintains an enterprise ISO 27001 certification which undergoes annual surveillance auditing and recertification every three years. We are prepared to obtain an independent, third party Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC), which is a requirement for companies doing business with the U.S. Department of Defense, as soon as the auditing bodies are available.
Talent Management and Succession Planning
Management has established semi-annual talent reviews. During these reviews, the executive leadership team discusses succession plans for key positions and identifies top talent for development in future leadership roles. Our Board is actively engaged in management succession planning. CEO succession planning discussions are led by the independent Lead Director and the Board members have direct access to and interaction with members of senior management and high potential future leaders as part of this succession planning. This includes informal and one-on-one settings to enable directors to personally assess potential candidates and cultivate future leaders.
CEO Transition. In consultation with the Board, in March 2020, Ms. Hewson announced her plans to step down from the position of President and CEO, subject to the approval of a successor by the Board. After a review of the possible candidates previously discussed by the Board over the past several years and taking into account the recommendation of Ms. Hewson, the Board, under the leadership of the independent Lead Director, elected James D. Taiclet to succeed Ms. Hewson as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation, effective June 15, 2020. The Board also appointed Ms. Hewson to serve as Executive Chairman of the Board, effective June 15, 2020, to ensure a smooth and disciplined transition. Mr. Taiclet had been a Board member since 2018 and was an experienced chief executive, Gulf War veteran and military pilot, and the Board viewed him as the best candidate to lead the Corporation. Effective March 1, 2021, Ms. Hewson stepped down as Executive Chairman and the Board elected Mr. Taiclet Chairman, President and CEO.
COO Appointment. Upon the recommendation of Ms. Hewson and taking into account prior Board reviews of management talent and development opportunities, in March 2020, the Board under the leadership of the independent Lead Director also elected Frank A. St. John, who was serving as Executive Vice President, Rotary and Mission Systems, as Chief Operating Officer (COO) of the Corporation and Stephanie C. Hill, who was serving as Senior Vice President, Enterprise Business Transformation, as Executive Vice President, Rotary and Mission Systems. The Board agreed that these executives had the potential to be strong and successful leaders for the Corporation. The appointments were effective on June 15, 2020.
The Board of Directors maintains a succession plan for the CEO and other key members of management and has a contingency plan if the CEO were to depart unexpectedly.
The Corporation has a corporate policy imposing a mandatory retirement age of 65 for all executive officers other than the CEO. The CEO’s tenure is at the discretion of the Board, which is free to consider all relevant factors.

Corporate Governance
Board Oversight of People Strategy
Our People Strategy
Human capital is a critical business asset at Lockheed Martin. Due to the specialized nature of our business, our performance depends on identifying, attracting, developing, motivating, and retaining a highly skilled workforce in multiple areas, including: engineering, science, manufacturing, information technology, cybersecurity, business development and strategy and management.
The Board of Directors is actively engaged in the oversight of human capital management and strategy. Our human capital management strategy, which we refer to as our people strategy, is tightly aligned with our business needs and technology strategy. In order to ensure that we achieve our human capital objectives, we regularly conduct an employee engagement survey to gauge employee satisfaction and to understand the effectiveness of our employee and compensation programs. The Board reviews these survey results. The Senior Vice President, Human Resources, updates the Board on the Corporation’s people strategy on an annual basis. Board members also are active partners in the development of our workforce, engaging and spending time with our high-potential leaders at Board meetings and other events.
During 2020, our human capital efforts were focused on accelerating the transformation of our technology for workforce management through investments in upgraded systems and processes, and continuing to increase our agility to meet the quickly changing needs of the business, considering the challenges of the global pandemic and social and political unrest. We use a variety of human capital measures in managing our business, including: workforce demographics; diversity metrics with respect to representation, attrition, hiring, promotions and leadership; and talent management metrics including retention rates of top talent and hiring metrics.
We streamlined the people strategy in 2020 to focus on three key priorities: Maximize Talent; Advance Technology; and Optimize Culture. We have developed a scalable strategy that endures the unprecedented past year of COVID-19 and social unrest. In 2021 and beyond, we will continue to execute on the Lockheed Martin people strategy and its three strategic imperatives to accelerate transformation.

Corporate Governance
Workforce Diversity and Inclusion
At Lockheed Martin, we recognize that corporate diversity, including gender, race and ethnicity, is of importance to our employees, our investors, and our broader stakeholders. Diversity and inclusion is not only a legal and social imperative, but a business imperative that we believe is a key to our future success. We believe that building a workplace where every voice is heard and every idea is welcome through fostering diversity and inclusion, we build more effective teams, encourage innovation and can better attract and retain top talent, all of which make us more competitive.
Annually, the Board meets to review our succession strategy and leadership pipeline for key roles, including the CEO, taking into account the Corporation’s long-term corporate strategy. More broadly, the Board is regularly informed on key talent indicators for the overall workforce, including performance against diversity metrics with respect to representation, hiring, promotions, and leadership. Talent management and employee engagement metrics and goals are included in the strategic and operational performance measures in management's annual incentive program.
We have focused our diversity and inclusion initiatives on employee recruitment, including investments in minority serving institutions and outreach, employee training and development, such as efforts focused on expanding the diverse talent pipeline, and employee engagement, including through participation in our Business Resource Groups. Our Business Resource Groups are voluntary, employee-led groups that foster a diverse and inclusive workplace aligned with our organizational mission, values, goals and business practices. Through these and other focused efforts, we have improved the diversity of our overall U.S. workforce and within leadership positions, specifically in the representation of women, people of color and people with disabilities.

Corporate Governance
Human Rights
Our Human Rights Policy and Principles:
As outlined in our Good Corporate Citizenship and Respect for Human Rights Policy, at Lockheed Martin, we believe that respect for human rights is an essential element of being a good corporate citizen. Our commitment to respecting human rights underlies Setting the Standard, the Lockheed Martin Code of Ethics and Business Conduct, and our stated values—Do What’s Right, Respect Others, and Perform with Excellence. This commitment applies to all employees, the Board, and others who represent or act for us.
Our Human Rights Policy includes the following principles:
Support human rights by treating employees with respect, promoting fair employment practices, providing fair and competitive wages and prohibiting harassment, bullying, discrimination, use of child or forced labor and trafficking in persons for any purpose.
Uphold the laws applying to our business, wherever we operate.
Seek to minimize the negative consequences of our business activities and decisions on our stakeholders, including by minimizing harm to the environment and conserving natural resources, promoting workplace safety, ensuring accuracy and transparency in our communications and delivering high-quality products and services.
Contribute to economic and social well-being by investing our resources in innovative products and services, supporting charitable, philanthropic, and social causes, participating appropriately in political affairs and public debate to advance and advocate our values (including engaging our customers to balance appropriately the sale and use of our technology against national and international interests) and promoting efforts to stop corrupt practices that interfere with markets, inhibit economic development and limit sustainable futures.
Board Oversight of Human Rights:
The Board, through the Governance Committee, reviews and monitors the Corporation’s policies and procedures regarding corporate responsibility and human rights and our compliance with related laws and regulations. Business Integrity is one of the core issues in our Sustainability Management Plan and the Governance Committee receives regular reports from our Senior Vice President, Ethics and Enterprise Assurance on how we are implementing our Sustainability Management Plan, which includes goals with respect to human rights.
Our Human Rights Due Diligence Approach:
Our human rights due diligence processes are embedded within our operating and decision-making practices and procedures and do not exist as a stand-alone procedure.
We have robust procedures to ensure that new contracts meet our standards and values. Prospective commitments are reviewed to ensure that they fit our strategic direction, will uphold our reputation, and are structured for successful technical and financial performance. Each business area has implemented proposal review and approval procedures that evaluate risks, and which can result in a decision not to bid at all. Proposals that involve the pursuit of an opportunity related to certain types of products or programs that carry increased reputational risks require review of a multi-disciplinary corporate review committee that is chaired by our CFO and COO and includes our Senior Vice President, Ethics and Enterprise Assurance, who reports to the Governance Committee. In 2020, we also formed a Weapons Review Council at our Missiles and Fire Control business area. This Council thoroughly reviews products and activities that may potentially raise human rights issues.
We conduct risk-based anti-corruption due diligence, which may be subject to audits, before entering into relationships with third parties, including consultants. We require international consultants to undergo training on our Code of Conduct and associated business conduct and anti-corruption policies. We will walk away from business rather than risk violating anti-corruption laws and our corporate values.
Our robust trade compliance program is designed to ensure that sales of our products are conducted in accordance with all international trade laws and regulations of the U.S. and each foreign country in which we operate.
We provide oversight of our standards and controls by providing mandatory training to our employees and trusted grievance mechanisms, providing resources and support to our suppliers, and aligning the interests of employees and suppliers within established frameworks. Formal and informal stakeholder engagement is an integral part of our business. We continue to encourage our employees, suppliers and the general public to report potential human rights violations through our anonymous ethics helpline. We also communicate our expectations to suppliers that they implement supply chain due diligence processes related to conflict minerals in their products.
Responsible Sales
All of our sales – domestic, international, commercial and governmental – are subject to our Code of Ethics and Business Conduct and all applicable U.S. and foreign laws and regulations, including those related to anti-corruption, import-export control, taxation, repatriation of earnings, exchange controls and the anti-boycott provisions of the U.S. Export Controls Reform Act of 2018. We have procedures to mitigate corruption risks in all international and domestic dealings.

Corporate Governance
Stockholder Engagement and Responsiveness
The Board of Directors places great importance on regularly communicating with our stockholders to better understand their viewpoints and inform discussions in the boardroom. The Governance Committee oversees our stockholder engagement efforts on behalf of the Board. We recognize the value of building informed and meaningful relationships with our investors that promote increased transparency and accountability. Our Governance Guidelines outline our stockholder engagement program.
Accountability to our stockholders continues to be an important component of the Corporation’s success. At the 2020 annual meeting, an advisory, non-binding stockholder proposal to adopt the right for stockholders to act by written consent received support of more than 47 percent of the votes cast. While the majority of our stockholders rejected the proposal (for the sixth time in the past 10 years, all by the same stockholder proponent), the Board carefully considered the voting results and continued to seek investor feedback as we have done in prior years and continues to believe stockholders have an effective suite of rights to express their views, effect change between annual meetings and ensure Board accountability (see the Board of Directors Statement in Opposition to Proposal 4 on page 82).
Our integrated investor outreach team, led by our Corporate Secretary's office and representatives from Sustainability and Human Resources, engages proactively with our stockholders and other key stakeholders, maintaining a year-round governance schedule as shown below. Stockholders' views are communicated to the Board throughout the year and are instrumental in the development of our governance, compensation and sustainability policies and inform our business strategy. In particular, the Board recognizes the importance of ESG topics to our stockholder base, and will continue to seek stockholder input on a range of ESG issues and practices in furtherance of enhancing long-term stockholder value.
Below is a summary of the feedback we received during 2020 off-season engagements:
Positive feedback on the Corporation's response to COVID-19 to protect the well-being of our employees and support for our communities, suppliers and partners;
Continued focus on Board refreshment and appreciation of diversity of ethnic background, gender, and experiences as well as the importance of maintaining alignment of directors' skillsets with our long-term strategy;
Continued interest in how we determine our sustainability priorities, including climate change risks and measure progress;
Understanding our people strategy, approach to human capital management and our workforce diversity efforts;
Continued interest in how sustainability and diversity goals are linked to our annual incentive program with pre-set metrics and goals; and
Discussion of CEO transition and succession planning.
These investor and stakeholder discussions yielded valuable feedback that was incorporated into the Board's deliberations.

Corporate Governance
Board Policies and Processes
Corporate Governance Guidelines
The Board has adopted Governance Guidelines that describe the framework within which the Board and its committees oversee the governance of the Corporation. The current Governance Guidelines are available on the Corporation’s website at www.lockheedmartin.com/corporate-governance.
The Governance Committee regularly assesses our governance practices considering emerging trends and practices and implements best governance practices that it believes enhance the operation and effectiveness of the Board.
Our Governance Guidelines cover a wide range of subjects, including:
•    The role of the Board and director responsibilities;
•    The role and responsibilities of the independent Lead Director;
•    Application of our Code of Ethics and Business Conduct (the Code of Conduct) to the Board;
•    Director nomination procedures and qualifications;
•    Director independence standards;
•    Director overboarding limits;
•    Policies for the review, approval and ratification of related person transactions;
•    Director orientation and continuing education;
•    Review by the Governance Committee of any change in job responsibilities of directors;
•    Procedures for annual performance evaluations of the Board and its committees;
•    Director stock ownership guidelines;
•    Clawback policy for executive incentive compensation;
•    Policy prohibiting hedging and pledging of Corporation stock;
•    Majority voting for the election of directors and resignation procedures for directors who fail to receive a majority vote;
•    Process for director compensation review, specifically use of competitive data and input from independent compensation consultant; and
•    Stockholder engagement program; our independent Lead Director will consider requests to speak to investors and will designate (in consultation with the Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary) a director to engage with the requesting investors, if appropriate.
Director Overboarding Policy
The Board recognizes that its members benefit from service on the boards of other companies and it encourages such service. The Board also believes, however, that it is critical that directors are able to dedicate sufficient time to their service on the Corporation’s Board. Therefore, the Governance Guidelines provide that, without obtaining the approval of the Governance Committee:
Directors
A director may not serve on the boards of more than four other public companies.
Public Company CEO or Equivalent
Active CEOs or equivalent may not serve on the boards of more than two other public companies.
Audit Committee
Audit Committee members may not serve on more than two other public company audit committees.
Compensation Committee
Compensation Committee members may not serve on more than three other public company compensation committees.
Directors must notify the CEO, independent Lead Director and Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary before accepting an invitation to serve on the board of any other public company. The Governance Committee reviews and determines whether the position would affect the director’s ability to serve on the Corporation’s Board.

Corporate Governance
Director Independence
All of our directors are independent under applicable NYSE listing standards, except Mr. Taiclet. Under the NYSE listing standards and our Governance Guidelines, a director is not independent if the director has a direct or indirect material relationship with the Corporation. The Governance Committee annually reviews the independence of all directors and reports its findings to the full Board. To assist in this review, the Board has adopted director independence guidelines that are included in our Governance Guidelines, which are available on the Corporation’s website at www.lockheedmartin.com/corporate-governance.
Our director independence guidelines set forth certain relationships between the Corporation and directors and their immediate family members or affiliated entities, which the Board, in its judgment, has deemed to be material or immaterial for purposes of assessing a director’s independence. In the event a director has a relationship with the Corporation that is not addressed in the independence guidelines, the independent members of the Board determine whether the relationship is material.
The Board has determined that the following directors are independent: Daniel F. Akerson, David B. Burritt, Bruce A. Carlson, Joseph F. Dunford, Jr., James O. Ellis, Jr., Thomas J. Falk, Ilene S. Gordon, Vicki A. Hollub, Jeh C. Johnson, and Debra L. Reed-Klages. The Board determined that James D. Taiclet, who was elected President and CEO effective June 15, 2020 and Chairman effective March 1, 2021, was independent prior to his election as President and CEO but as an employee he is no longer independent under the NYSE listing standards or our Governance Guidelines. Mr. Taiclet stopped serving on the CBS and Compensation Committees at the time of the Board's decision to elect him President and CEO in March 2020. Former Chairman, President and CEO Marillyn A. Hewson was also determined by the Board not to be independent while she served on the Board. In determining that each of the non-management directors is independent, the Board considered the relationships described under “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions of Directors, Executive Officers and 5 Percent Stockholders,” on page 31, each of which were determined to be immaterial to each individual’s independence.
The Governance Committee and Board considered that the Corporation, in the ordinary course of business, purchases products and services from, or sells products and services to, companies or subsidiaries or parents of companies at which some of our directors (or their immediate family members) are or have been directors or officers and to other institutions with which some of these individuals have or have had relationships. These relationships included: Mr. Akerson (CommScope Holding Company, Inc. and Northrop Grumman Corporation (family member’s employer)); Mr. Carlson (Benchmark Electronics Inc., the Charles Stark Draper Laboratory and Utah State Space Dynamics Laboratory); Mr. Dunford (K&L Gates LLP (family member’s employer)); Mr. Ellis (Blue Origin, LLC (family member’s employer), Dominion Energy Inc., the Economist Group (family member’s employer) and Stanford University (fellow at Hoover Institution and family member’s employer)); Ms. Gordon (The Conference Board and International Paper Company); Mr. Johnson (KANTAR LLC (family member’s employer)); and Ms. Reed-Klages (The Boeing Company (family member’s employer), Caterpillar Inc. and the University of Southern California). In determining that these relationships did not affect the independence of those directors, the Board considered that none of the directors had any direct or indirect material interest in, or received any special compensation in connection with, the Corporation’s business relationships with those entities. In addition to their consideration of these ordinary course of business transactions, the Governance Committee and the Board relied upon the director independence guidelines included in our Governance Guidelines to conclude that contributions to a tax-exempt organization by the Corporation did not create any direct or indirect material interest for the purpose of assessing director independence.
The Governance Committee also concluded that all members of each of the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Governance Committee are independent within the meaning of our Governance Guidelines and NYSE listing standards, including the additional independence requirements applicable to members of the Audit Committee and Compensation Committee.
Related Person Transaction Policy
The Board has approved a written policy and procedures for the review, approval and ratification of transactions among the Corporation and its directors, executive officers and their related interests. A copy of the policy is available on the Corporation’s website at www.lockheedmartin.com/corporate-governance. Under the policy, all related person transactions (as defined in the policy) are to be reviewed by the Governance Committee. The Governance Committee may approve or ratify related person transactions at its discretion if deemed fair and reasonable to the Corporation. This may include situations where the Corporation provides products or services to related persons on an arm’s length basis on terms comparable to those provided to unrelated third parties. Any director who participates in or is the subject of an existing or potential related person transaction may not participate in the decision-making process of the Governance Committee with respect to that transaction.
30
https://cdn.kscope.io/6fc0258ee08fe7d9135f6e9b0c2b0f4e-image1481.jpg


Corporate Governance
Under the policy, and consistent with applicable SEC regulations and NYSE listing standards, a related person transaction is any transaction in which the Corporation was, is or will be a participant, where the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and in which a related person had, has, or will have a direct or indirect material interest. A related person includes any director or director-nominee, any executive officer of the Corporation, any person who is known to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of any class of the Corporation’s voting securities, or an immediate family member of any person described above.
Our policy requires each director and executive officer to complete an annual questionnaire to identify his or her related interests and persons, and to notify the Corporation of changes in that information. Based on that information, the Corporation maintains a master list of related persons for purposes of tracking and reporting related person transactions.
Because it may not be possible or practical to pre-approve all related person transactions, the policy contemplates that the Governance Committee may ratify transactions after they commence or pre-approve categories of transactions or relationships. If the Governance Committee declines to approve or ratify a transaction, the related person transaction is referred to management to make a recommendation to the Governance Committee concerning whether the transaction should be terminated or amended in a manner that is acceptable to the Governance Committee.
Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions of Directors, Executive Officers and 5 Percent Stockholders
The following transactions or relationships are considered to be “related person” transactions under our corporate policy and applicable SEC regulations and NYSE listing standards. We currently employ approximately 114,000 employees and have an active recruitment program for soliciting job applications from qualified candidates. We seek to hire the most qualified candidates and consequently do not preclude the employment of family members of current directors or executive officers. William J. Drennen, III, the brother-in-law of our chief accounting officer, is employed by the Corporation as a senior staff systems engineer. Mr. Drennen’s 2020 base salary was $169,478 and he received an annual cash incentive award of $13,558. His base salary was increased to $174,562 for 2021 and he is eligible to earn an incentive award applicable to employees at his level. Bruce Carlson's son, Dr. Scott Carlson, is employed by the Corporation as a senior staff aeronautical engineer. Dr. Carlson's 2020 base salary was $148,026 and he received an annual cash incentive award of $11,842. His base salary was increased to $152,467 for 2021 and he may be eligible to earn an incentive award applicable to employees at his level. Mr. Drennen and Dr. Carlson may participate in other employee benefit plans and arrangements that generally are made available to other employees at the same level (including health, welfare, vacation, and retirement plans). Their respective compensation was established in accordance with the Corporation’s employment and compensation practices applicable to employees with equivalent qualifications, experience, and responsibilities and the Board and executive officers of the Corporation did not have any direct involvement in setting their individual compensation. Neither Mr. Drennen nor Dr. Carlson served as an executive officer of the Corporation during 2020.
From time to time, the Corporation has purchased services in the ordinary course of business from financial institutions that beneficially own five percent or more of our common stock. In 2020, the Corporation paid approximately $10,006,174 to State Street Corporation and its affiliates (including State Street Bank and Trust Company) (collectively, State Street) for investment management, custodial, benefit plan administration and credit facility fees; approximately $1,061,953 to BlackRock, Inc. and its affiliates for investment management fees; approximately $983,803 to Capital Guardian, an affiliate of Capital World Investors, for investment management fees; and approximately $277,137 to The Vanguard Group, Inc., for investment management fees. A portion of the fees included in the amounts paid to State Street, BlackRock, Inc., Capital Guardian and The Vanguard Group are estimated based on a percentage of net asset value under management.
Accountability to Stockholders
Majority Voting Policy for Director Elections
The Corporation’s Charter and Bylaws provide for simple majority voting. Pursuant to the Governance Guidelines, in any uncontested election of directors, any incumbent director who receives more votes “AGAINST” than votes “FOR” is required to offer his or her resignation for Board consideration.
www.lockheedmartin.com2021 Proxy Statement
31


Corporate Governance
Upon receipt of a resignation of a director tendered as a result of a failed stockholder vote, the Governance Committee will make a recommendation to the Board as to whether to accept or reject the resignation, or whether other action is recommended. In considering the tendered resignation, the Board will consider the Governance Committee’s recommendation as well as any other factors it deems relevant, which may include:
the qualifications of the director whose resignation has been tendered;
the director’s past and expected future contributions to the Corporation;
the overall composition of the Board and its committees;
whether accepting the tendered resignation would cause the Corporation to fail to meet any applicable rule or regulation (including NYSE listing standards and the federal securities laws); and
the percentage of outstanding shares represented by the votes cast at the annual meeting.
The Board will act on a tendered resignation within 90 days following certification of the stockholder vote for the annual meeting and will promptly disclose its decision and rationale as to whether to accept the resignation (or the reasons for rejecting the resignation, if applicable) in a press release, in a filing with the SEC, or by other public announcement, including a posting on the Corporation’s website.
If a director’s resignation is accepted by the Board, or if a nominee for director who is not an incumbent director is not elected, the Board may fill the resulting vacancy or may decrease the size of the Board pursuant to the Corporation’s Bylaws. The Board may not fill any vacancy so created with a director who was nominated but not elected at the annual meeting by the vote required under the Corporation’s Bylaws.
Stockholder Right to Amend Bylaws
Following a dialogue with many of our largest investors and a deliberative review of the issue, the Board proactively changed the Bylaws in December 2017 to give the Corporation’s stockholders the right to amend the Bylaws. The authority of the stockholders and the Board to amend the Bylaws is subject to the provisions of the Corporation’s Charter and applicable statutes. Our Bylaws can be found on the Corporation’s website at www.lockheedmartin.com/corporate-governance.
Proxy Access
Our Bylaws permit a stockholder or a group of up to 20 stockholders who together have owned at least three percent of the Corporation’s outstanding common stock continuously for three years to nominate for election by the Corporation’s stockholders and include in the Corporation’s proxy solicitation materials for its annual meeting up to the greater of two directors or 20 percent of the number of directors in office at the time of the proxy access deadline described on page 91.
Stockholder Right to Call Special Meeting
Any stockholder who individually owns 10 percent, or stockholders who in the aggregate own 25 percent, of the outstanding common stock may demand the calling of a special meeting to consider any business properly brought before the stockholders. Our Bylaws do not restrict the timing of a request for a special meeting. The only subject matter restriction is that the Corporation is not required to call a special meeting to consider a matter that is substantially the same as a matter voted on at a special meeting within the preceding 12 months unless requested by stockholders entitled to cast a majority of the votes at the special meeting.
No Poison Pill
The Corporation does not have a Stockholder Rights Plan, otherwise known as a “Poison Pill.” Through our Governance Guidelines, the Board has communicated that it has no intention of adopting one at this time and if it were to adopt a Stockholder Rights Plan, the Board would seek stockholder ratification within 12 months of the date of adoption.

Enterprise Risk and Sustainability
As a leader in developing and delivering innovative engineering solutions, Lockheed Martin helps to enable the growth, safety, and resiliency of communities and economies around the world. The core sustainability issues we focus on and the corresponding actions we take are designed to address some of the most pressing ESG issues facing society today and in the future.
To build integrated assurance, enterprise risk and sustainability are managed under one department and mutually reinforced through the following processes:
Risk Identification: We monitor a dynamic risk universe that includes ESG topics prevalent in voluntary frameworks, mandatory regulations, and internally identified sources.
Risk Assessment: We prioritize and evaluate assumptions from a diverse set of risk topics that are relevant to strategic and operational objectives. This includes examining environmental and social factors applicable to risk topics in our business.
Risk Controls and Mitigation: Through the Risk Audit Strategy Board (a periodic, rigorous examination of the intersection between our Enterprise Risk matrix and our internal audit plan) we strive to mitigate risk related to several ESG factors, and we track, measure and report our performance for greater transparency. This process also informs how we evaluate the effectiveness of controls for risk elements identified through our enterprise risk assessments, corporate policies, and internal audits.
Enterprise Risk Management Highlights
A prominent oversight responsibility of the Board concerns the management of corporate risk-taking to achieve strategic objectives and monitoring of risk mitigation effectiveness. The Audit Committee reviews the state of enterprise risk governance, as well as the assessments of risks that may impact the Corporation’s ability to achieve strategic business objectives. The Audit Committee also reviews risk disclosures and reporting and management evaluations of risk mitigation performance. Other Board committees also supervise management's execution of additional subject-specific risks relevant to their function’s compliance with laws and regulations. Examples of this are cybersecurity and ethics and business conduct.

Nominating and Corporate GovernanceBoard composition, corporate governance, employee safety and health, ethical conduct, human rights, corporate culture, human capital and environmental risks
Management Development and CompensationTalent, workforce and incentive compensation risks
Our enterprise risk management process involves providing the Board with regular, periodic reports on:
A clear governance structure guiding our risk management process across the Corporation;
The categories of risks the Corporation faces, including significant drivers posing potential impacts to meeting strategic objectives or compliance standards;
A clear framework for accountability that illustrates mitigating measures and action plans, and how the CEO and the executive leadership team are involved in reviewing and executing such activities;
The ways in which risks are measured on an enterprise basis, the setting of aggregate and subject-specific risk indicators, and related policies and procedures in place to control risks; and
The analysis underpinning the prioritization of key risks and the tools for risk observation to ensure that new or shifting risks are readily identified and addressed by management. This includes understanding risks inherent in the Corporation’s strategic plans, risks arising from the competitive landscape and the potential for technology and other ESG developments to impact profitability and prospects for sustainable, long-term value creation.

Beyond 2020 Sustainability Priorities
As described on page 10, our core sustainability issues represent stakeholder priorities and drivers of long-term value creation. Since the goals associated with these core issues came to a close at the end of 2020, we have reviewed and updated our sustainability strategy, using what we have learned while delivering on our Sustainability Management Plan objectives through 2020. Our updated sustainability priorities, previewed here, reflect the stakeholder feedback we’ve received, internal and external trends, and the continued evolution of our business to create value well into the future. We ultimately identified four sustainability priorities consisting of 14 core issues (as outlined below) for our next Sustainability Management Plan that will guide us from 2021 to 2025.

Enterprise Risk and Sustainability
Climate & Environmental Stewardship
At Lockheed Martin, climate risks and opportunities impact our long-term resiliency as a leader in global security and aerospace. It is our responsibility to understand, and actively address climate risks while leveraging opportunities to foster a strong business model for the future. In 2020, we issued our first climate-related risk assessment in alignment with the TCFD recommendations, which demonstrates our responsibility to our global community of stakeholders.
Go Green Goals
Our Go Green initiative promotes environmental stewardship through reductions in carbon emissions, energy and waste which yields operational efficiency and cost avoidance. Since the inception of the Go Green program in 2007, Lockheed Martin has been able to reduce energy consumption by 19%, carbon emissions by 47%, and waste to landfill by 51%. We are pursuing ambitious climate-related targets to reduce our carbon emissions and increase our renewable energy procurement enterprise-wide. We also emphasize energy efficiency efforts, water reduction projects, and waste minimization activities at our facilities. In 2020, Lockheed Martin experienced some adverse impacts to the initiative as a result of COVID-19. We continue to analyze these impacts on our Go Green goals in order to re-evaluate and determine the most appropriate path forward for the program.

Ratification of Appointment of Independent Auditors
https://cdn.kscope.io/6fc0258ee08fe7d9135f6e9b0c2b0f4e-image1181.jpg
•    Independent accounting firm with the breadth of knowledge, support and expertise of its national office.
•    Significant industry and government contracting expertise.
•    Periodic mandated rotation of the audit firm’s lead engagement partner.
The Board unanimously recommends that you vote FOR the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young as independent auditors for 2021.
The Audit Committee has appointed Ernst & Young LLP (Ernst & Young), an independent registered public accounting firm, as the independent auditors to perform an integrated audit of the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements and internal control over financial reporting for the year ending December 31, 2021. The services provided to the Corporation by Ernst & Young for the last two fiscal years are described under the caption “Fees Paid to Independent Auditors” on the following page.
The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention, oversight and termination of the Corporation’s independent auditors in accordance with the NYSE listing standards. The Audit Committee also is responsible for the audit fee negotiations associated with the retention of Ernst & Young. The Audit Committee and its Chairman are involved in the selection of Ernst & Young’s lead engagement partner. The Audit Committee regularly meets with Ernst & Young without management present.
Ernst & Young has served as the Corporation’s independent auditors since 1994. The Audit Committee reviews the engagement of Ernst & Young annually following completion of Ernst & Young’s audit of the prior year’s financial statements. The Audit Committee also conducts a mid-year assessment of the quality of Ernst & Young’s work. As part of its annual and mid-year assessment of Ernst & Young, the Audit Committee has considered:
the materials on independence provided by Ernst & Young;
work quality;
management’s level of satisfaction with its services;
the adequacy of Ernst & Young’s staffing;
the breadth of knowledge, support and expertise of its national office;
the length of time Ernst & Young has been engaged;
external data regarding Ernst & Young’s audit quality and performance, including recent Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) reports on Ernst & Young and its peer firms;
Ernst & Young’s institutional knowledge and expertise with respect to the Corporation’s business and government contracting practices, quality and cost-effective services;
familiarity with the Corporation’s account;
level of expertise in accounting issues relating to government contracts; and
Ernst & Young’s performance in providing independent analysis of management positions.

Audit Matters
Stockholder approval of the appointment is not required. However, the Board believes that obtaining stockholder ratification of the appointment is a sound corporate governance practice. If the stockholders do not vote on an advisory basis in favor of Ernst & Young, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether to hire the firm and may retain Ernst & Young or hire another firm without resubmitting the matter for stockholders’ approval. The Audit Committee retains the discretion at any time to appoint a different independent auditor.
Representatives of Ernst & Young are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting, and such representatives will be available to respond to appropriate questions and will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire.
Pre-Approval of Independent Auditors Services
The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit, audit-related, tax and other services performed by the independent auditors. The Audit Committee pre-approves specific categories of services up to pre-established fee thresholds. Unless the type of service has previously been pre-approved, the Audit Committee must approve that specific service before the independent auditors may perform such service. In addition, separate approval is required if the amount of fees for any pre-approved category of service exceeds the fee thresholds established by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee also has delegated to the Committee Chairman or any member pre-approval authority with respect to permitted services up to $500,000, provided that the Committee Chairman or any committee member must report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.
Fees Paid to Independent Auditors
The following table sets forth the fees billed by Ernst & Young, the Corporation’s independent auditors, for audit services, audit-related services, tax services and all other services rendered for 2020 and 2019. All fees were pre-approved in accordance with the Audit Committee’s pre-approval policy. The Audit Committee considered and concluded that the provision of these services by Ernst & Young was compatible with the maintenance of the auditor’s independence.

Audit Committee Report
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing the Corporation’s accounting, auditing and financial reporting process, financial risk assessment and management process and for monitoring compliance with certain regulatory and compliance matters, on behalf of the Board of Directors.
The Corporation’s management is responsible for preparing the quarterly and annual consolidated financial statements, the financial reporting process, and maintaining and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures and a system of internal control over financial reporting.
In addition to its oversight of the Corporation’s internal audit organization, the Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention, oversight and termination of the Corporation’s independent auditors, Ernst & Young, an independent registered public accounting firm. The independent auditors are responsible for performing an independent audit of the Corporation’s annual consolidated financial statements and internal control over financial reporting and expressing an opinion on the material conformity of those consolidated financial statements with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and on the effectiveness of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.
In connection with the preparation of the Corporation’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with management and Ernst & Young the Corporation’s audited consolidated financial statements, including discussions regarding critical accounting policies, financial accounting and reporting principles and practices, the quality of such principles and practices, the reasonableness of significant judgments and estimates, and the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee also discussed with Ernst & Young, with and without management, the quality of the financial statements, clarity of the related disclosures, effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting and other items required by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) and the SEC. Additionally, the Audit Committee received and reviewed the written disclosures and letter from Ernst & Young required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding Ernst & Young's communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with Ernst & Young its independence.
Based on the Audit Committee’s reviews and discussions described in this report, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020 be included in Lockheed Martin Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2020 for filing with the SEC. The Audit Committee also reappointed Ernst & Young to serve as the Corporation’s independent auditors for 2021, and requested that this appointment be submitted to the Corporation’s stockholders for ratification at the Annual Meeting. The Board of Directors approved the Audit Committee’s recommendations.

Advisory Vote to Approve the Compensation of Our NEOs (Say-on-Pay)
https://cdn.kscope.io/6fc0258ee08fe7d9135f6e9b0c2b0f4e-image1181.jpg
•    Pay-for-performance alignment is built into the design of our annual and long-term incentive programs.
•    Executive compensation targets are set by reference to 50th percentile of peers with actual payouts dependent on performance outcomes.
•    More than 94% of votes cast at the 2020 annual meeting approved Say-on-Pay and we continue to engage with our stockholders on an on-going basis.
The Board unanimously recommends that you vote FOR the advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers.
As required by Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, we ask our stockholders to vote annually to approve, on an advisory (non-binding) basis, the compensation of our named executive officers (NEOs) as described in detail in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis (CD&A) and the accompanying tables in the Executive Compensation section of this Proxy Statement. This vote is commonly known as Say-on-Pay.
Stockholders should review the entire Proxy Statement and, in particular, the CD&A beginning on page 40 and the Executive Compensation Tables beginning on page 58, for information on our executive compensation programs and other important items.
We believe that the information provided in this Proxy Statement demonstrates that our executive compensation programs are designed to link pay to performance. Accordingly, the Board recommends that stockholders approve the compensation of our NEOs by approving the following Say-on-Pay resolution:
RESOLVED, that the stockholders of Lockheed Martin Corporation approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the named executive officers identified in the “Summary Compensation Table,” as disclosed in the Lockheed Martin Corporation 2021 Proxy Statement pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the compensation tables and the accompanying footnotes and narratives. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather our overall compensation policies and procedures related to the NEOs. Although the results of the Say-on-Pay vote do not bind the Corporation, the Board will, as it does each year, continue to review the results carefully and plans to continue to seek the views of our stockholders throughout the year.
Compensation Committee Report
The Management Development and Compensation Committee makes recommendations to the Board of Directors concerning the compensation of the Corporation’s NEOs. We have reviewed and discussed with management the Compensation Discussion and Analysis that will be included in the Corporation’s Schedule 14A Proxy Statement, filed pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on that review and discussion, we recommended to the Board of Directors that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in the Proxy Statement. The Board approved our recommendation.

In 2020, Lockheed Martin demonstrated agility, resilience, and resolve in the face of the year’s unprecedented geopolitical, business, and public health challenges. We continued to exhibit strong growth across our diverse portfolio, as manifested in our financial and operational results. In 2020, the Corporation achieved records for sales, segment operating profit* and earnings per share. Lockheed Martin’s net sales and segment operating profit in 2020 both increased 9% compared to 2019 and we generated cash from operations of $8.2 billion after $1.0 billion of discretionary pension contributions. In addition, we ended 2020 with orders of $68.1 billion, adding to our strong year-end backlog of $147.1 billion.
Despite COVID-19 supplier challenges that impacted aircraft deliveries, the F-35 fifth generation fighter program worked with our customers and partners to mitigate risks brought on by the pandemic and continued to achieve unmatched combat capability. In 2020, we delivered 120 F-35s and remained on track to meet the joint government and industry recovery commitments over the coming years. In total, the program has surpassed 600 aircraft deliveries and more than 350,000 flight hours. The F-35 program also celebrated several international milestones with Poland and Singapore joining the program and several other nations expressing interest in joining as well.
The Corporation also had strategic and operational accomplishments across our other business segments in 2020. In April, we were awarded a contract valued at more than $6 billion to supply PAC-3 Missile Segment Enhancement interceptors, launcher modification kits, and associated equipment to support the United States and international customers. Early in the year, we celebrated the launch of the sixth and final Advanced Extremely High Frequency satellite. Notably, the satellite was the first in orbit for the newly formed U.S. Space Force. We also received a $2 billion Performance-Based Logistics contract for sustainment services on the MH-60 SEAHAWK® platform for the U.S. Navy. Strategically, Lockheed Martin continued to invest in emerging technologies in the areas of autonomy, hypersonics, and artificial intelligence to better serve our customers in an increasingly volatile and unpredictable threat environment.
We also continued our efforts to return cash to stockholders through dividends and share repurchases. During 2020, we returned $3.9 billion of cash from operations to our stockholders, with $1.1 billion in share repurchases and $2.8 billion paid in cash dividends. Lockheed Martin's total stockholder returns have outperformed the S&P 500 Aerospace & Defense Index over the past one-, three-, and five-year periods, reflecting these financial, strategic and operational accomplishments.

Executive Compensation
Compensation Overview
Our executive compensation programs covering our NEOs are designed to attract and retain critical executive talent, to motivate behaviors that align with stockholders’ interests and to pay for performance. The majority of our NEOs’ pay is variable and contingent on performance with over two-thirds in the form of long-term incentives (LTI). To ensure pay is competitive with market practices, we conduct a benchmarking analysis each year when establishing base salary, annual incentive target opportunities and LTI target opportunities. Each element of compensation is evaluated against the 50th percentile, which we refer to as “market rate,” of our comparator group of companies, as shown on page 45. Although target incentive opportunities are set by reference to the market rate, incentive plan terms provide for actual payouts to be based upon actual performance that can result in payouts above or below targeted levels. Based on actual results relative to our pre-established goals under our incentive programs, the 2020 annual incentive program paid out at 177% of target and the 2018-2020 Long-Term Incentive Performance awards (LTIP) and Performance Stock Units (PSUs) paid out at 200% of target for all NEOs.
We have not made any modifications to our compensation programs or to our targets or goals in response to COVID-19 or the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act. However, in September 2020, the Compensation Committee approved amendments to outstanding long-term incentive award agreements to ensure that the ultimate payouts are not impacted to a participant’s benefit or detriment by government stimulus and assistance programs enacted in response to COVID-19 or by pension risk transfer transactions (please see “Setting Performance Goals for PSUs and LTIP” on page 52 for more specific details).
CEO Transition
Effective June 15, 2020, Ms. Hewson transitioned from Chairman, President and CEO to Executive Chairman and Mr. Taiclet was elected President and CEO. Effective March 1, 2021, Mr. Taiclet was elected Chairman and Ms. Hewson became Strategic Advisor to the CEO. Ms. Hewson is expected to serve in this role until February 28, 2022.
The Corporation maintains and has regularly adhered to a compensation philosophy of providing target total compensation opportunities consistent with the market rate. This policy is consistently applied to all NEOs. The table below illustrates the annualized value of Mr. Taiclet’s approved 2020 target total compensation opportunity:
Approved 2020 Compensation
ElementSalary ($)Target Annual Incentive %Target Total Cash ($)Long-Term Incentives* ($)Target Total Compensation ($)
Annualized Target Pay1,700,0001754,675,00014,000,00018,675,000
*    2020 LTI grant excludes equity replacement grant with an approximate value of $5.55 million.
The annual and long-term incentive opportunities represent target and grant date values respectively. These opportunities can be earned subject to subsequent performance and service. The annual cash compensation elements—salary and annual incentive—were pro-rated based on the number of days employed for 2020. The long-term incentive award was not pro-rated reflecting both the longer term nature of the award and that Mr. Taiclet would have otherwise received a full long-term incentive award for 2020 from his prior employer if he had continued to be its CEO. Mr. Taiclet's long-term incentive award, as with all other NEOs, was comprised of 70% performance-based awards (50% PSUs and 20% cash based LTIP) and 30% time-based Restricted Stock Units (RSUs).
Upon his termination of employment with his prior employer, Mr. Taiclet forfeited portions of performance-based equity awards covering two separate performance cycles (2018-2020 and 2019-2021) and his opportunity to earn an annual cash incentive award for 2020. The Board, with the assistance of its outside compensation consultant, estimated that Mr. Taiclet was forfeiting approximately $5.55 million in value that he would have otherwise earned at this prior employer. To induce Mr. Taiclet to accept employment with the Corporation by covering the estimated value of these forfeited awards, Mr. Taiclet was granted a replacement award, which was allocated between two tranches of RSUs as follows:
7,689 RSUs ($2.87 million) that vest one year from the date of grant to replace the foregone annual cash incentive opportunity and the forfeited 2018-2020 performance-based award; and
7,180 RSUs ($2.68 million) that vest two years from the date of grant to replace the forfeited 2019-2021 performance-based award.

42
https://cdn.kscope.io/6fc0258ee08fe7d9135f6e9b0c2b0f4e-image1481.jpg


Executive Compensation
The vesting periods of these two tranches were structured to approximately parallel the time periods over which the original forfeited awards would have been earned/vested and the number of RSUs was determined based on dividing the estimated forfeited value by the closing stock price of the Corporation's common stock on the NYSE on June 15, 2020, which was the effective date of Mr. Taiclet's appointment as President and CEO. RSUs were chosen to create immediate alignment with Lockheed Martin stockholders and further Mr. Taiclet’s equity ownership in the Corporation.
No adjustments were made to Ms. Hewson's previously approved 2020 compensation in connection with her transition to Executive Chairman. Consistent with the policy of not providing Board compensation to employee directors, Ms. Hewson did not receive separate director compensation for her service on the Board during 2020. For her service as Strategic Advisor to the CEO, effective March 1, 2021 through February 28, 2022, Ms. Hewson's annual base salary will be reduced from $1,855,000 to $900,000. Ms. Hewson will not be eligible for an annual incentive for 2021 performance and will not receive any equity or long-term incentive performance awards in 2021. While she remains an employee of the Corporation, Ms. Hewson will continue to participate in the savings, health, disability and life insurance benefit plans and programs in which she has been a participant and will continue to be eligible for an annual executive physical, home office support, professional memberships, continued use of corporate aircraft and continued security based on assessed risk to her. Consistent with past practice, to the extent personal security is necessary and taxable, Ms. Hewson will receive a tax gross-up sufficient to make her whole.
2020 CEO Compensation
2020 CEO Target Pay Mix. We believe that the compensation opportunities of our CEO should be predominantly variable, and the variable elements of the compensation package should tie to the Corporation’s long-term success and the achievement of sustainable long-term total returns to our stockholders. As shown in the chart to the right, a significant portion of our CEO’s target compensation is variable and in the form of LTI with more than half of total target pay in the form of equity-based incentives.
Base Salary. In 2020, Mr. Taiclet’s annual base salary was set at $1,700,000.
2020 Annual Incentive. Mr. Taiclet’s target annual incentive amount for 2020 was 175% of salary, or $1,636,250 after proration based on his start date.
2020-2022 Long-Term Incentives. In 2020, Mr. Taiclet was granted an annual LTI award of approximately $14.0 million, which was allocated 50% in PSUs, 30% in RSUs, and 20% in the cash-based LTIP. RSUs will cliff-vest after three years, while the payout of PSUs and LTIP will be based upon our results at the end of the three-year performance period relative to the three-year performance goals that were established in the beginning of 2020. This does not include the one-time replacement award of approximately $5.55M to offset forfeited incentives at his previous employer.
Benefit and Retirement Plans. Mr. Taiclet is eligible for benefit and retirement programs, similar to other salaried employees. None of our NEOs received additional years of service credits or other forms of formula enhancements under our benefit or retirement plans. Mr. Taiclet does not participate in a pension plan, as the salaried pension plan was closed to employees hired after December 31, 2005 and fully frozen effective January 1, 2020.

Executive Compensation
How We Determine Market Rate Compensation
For each of the principal elements of executive compensation, we determine the “market rate” as the size-adjusted 50th percentile of our comparator group of companies. Size-adjusted market rates are calculated for us by Aon, using revenue regression analysis. This statistical technique accounts for revenue size differences within the peer group and results in a market rate for all compensation elements consistent with our revenue relationship to our peers. We also may adjust the market rate to reflect differences in an executive’s job scope relative to the industry or the comparator group of companies, as appropriate.
The Compensation Committee considers the current market data in combination with other internal factors when setting individual annual target pay levels, such as changes to market data year-over-year, internal pay equity, individual performance, job scope and criticality to the Corporation. Our incentive plans are designed so that actual performance in excess of established performance targets results in payouts above target and actual performance below established performance targets results in payouts below target or no payout.
How We Select the Comparator Group for Market Rate Purposes
To establish the market rate for each of the principal elements of compensation, we select a group of publicly-traded companies (our comparator group). We regularly review our comparator group to maintain relevancy and to ensure the availability of data, while seeking to avoid significant annual changes in the group to ensure a level of consistency. Because the number of comparable companies with our revenue level is not extensive, we include companies in our comparator group based on a number of factors, including:
Similarity in size (a high correlative factor in determining pay), generally based on annual revenues;
Participation in the Aon executive compensation survey (our primary source for data in making market comparisons), which enables us to obtain reliable data for market comparisons that otherwise may not be publicly available;
Industrial companies and, to the extent possible, companies that compete in the aerospace and defense industry, which enables comparison with companies that face similar overall labor costs, economic factors and market fluctuations;
Companies with which we compete for executive talent, as competitive conditions and the limited number of comparably-sized aerospace and defense companies require us to recruit outside of the core aerospace and defense companies for a broad range of disciplines (e.g., finance, human resources, legal, supply chain management) to obtain individuals with a broad range of skills that are transferable across industries; and
Companies with comparable executive officer positions or management structures, which enables more appropriate compensation comparisons.
We do not consider market capitalization in selecting our comparator group because market capitalization can change quickly as industries and companies go in and out of favor as investments and companies restructure.
The data presented to and considered by the Compensation Committee regarding the level of compensation at the Corporation’s comparator group of peer companies was developed from the proprietary results of the Aon executive compensation survey, subject to review by Meridian. There was no change in the composition of our 2020 comparator group from 2019. All of the 2020 comparator group companies participated in the Aon survey. Our 2020 revenues represented the 64th percentile of the comparator group.

In light of the split of DowDuPont Inc., the Compensation Committee replaced DowDuPont Inc. with Dow Inc. and also added HP Inc. given its satisfaction of our criteria described above. This updated Comparator Group was used for compensation decisions for 2021.

Executive Compensation
Compensation and Risk
The Corporation’s executive and broad-based compensation programs are intended to promote decision-making that supports a pay for performance philosophy while mitigating risk by utilizing the following design features:
Mix of fixed and variable pay opportunities
Multiple performance measures, multiple time periods and capped payouts under incentive plans
Stock ownership requirements
Oversight by independent Board committee
Incentive goals set at the Enterprise or business segment level
Moderate severance program that includes post-employment restrictive covenants
Institutional focus on ethical behavior
Annual risk assessment
Compensation Committee oversight of equity burn rate and dilution
Enhanced clawback policy
With the assistance of a risk assessment conducted by Meridian on an annual basis, the Compensation Committee concluded that risks arising from our executive and broad-based incentive compensation programs are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Corporation.

Executive Compensation
2020 Named Executive Officers’ Compensation
2020 Target Compensation
Our NEOs’ target compensation for 2020 is shown below, which is closely aligned to the market rate. When determining pay for our NEOs, the Compensation Committee considers the current market data in combination with other internal factors when setting annual target pay levels, such as changes to market data year-over-year, internal pay equity, individual performance, job scope and criticality to the Corporation. Effective June 15, 2020, Marillyn A. Hewson transitioned to Executive Chairman and James D. Taiclet was elected President and Chief Executive Officer. Additionally, Frank A. St. John was appointed Chief Operating Officer effective June 15, 2020 and in connection with his promotion the Compensation Committee approved an additional $150,000 LTI grant (increasing his total annual LTI opportunity from $4.5 million to $4.65 million).

Executive Compensation
Base Salary
Base salaries are reviewed and increased annually taking into account the market rate (50th percentile), the executive’s individual performance and internal pay equity. In establishing the base salary for each NEO, we determined the market rate using comparator group company data and evaluated whether the market rate should be adjusted up or down based on differences in the scope of the NEO’s position as compared to the industry and the comparator group companies.
2020 Annual Incentive
As has been the case since 2018, the 2020 annual incentive plan for our CEO, other NEOs and all other officers elected by the Board was based 70% on financial goals and 30% on strategic and operational goals measured at the Enterprise level, as illustrated in the graphic below. Although the annual incentive plan uses a formulaic approach, the Compensation Committee retains discretion in administering the plan, which discretion includes choosing and approving goals, assessing strategic and operational results and modifying payouts based on business segment and individual performance for any officer elected by the Board, including the NEOs.
https://cdn.kscope.io/6fc0258ee08fe7d9135f6e9b0c2b0f4e-pg45_payout1.jpg
Under the terms of our annual incentive plan, the CEO’s bonus and the bonus for each of the other NEOs cannot exceed 0.3% and 0.2%, respectively, of Cash from Operations. Annual incentive payouts range from 0% to 200% of target.
2020 Annual Incentive Goals and Results
At its February 2020 meeting, the Compensation Committee approved Enterprise-wide objectives for 2020 reflecting financial, strategic and operational goals. These goals are used as the Enterprise Component for all executives in the Corporation and serve as the only goals for the CEO, NEOs and all other officers elected by the Board. We have not made any modifications to our annual incentive goals in response to COVID-19 or the CARES Act.
Financial Assessment (70% Weight). The financial targets under the annual incentive plan align with the guidance we disclosed publicly at the beginning of 2020. We believe this approach to setting the financial metrics for annual incentive purposes appropriately links compensation to our effectiveness in meeting our public commitments to our stockholders. Our financial commitments are established at the completion of our annual long-range planning process and are consistent with our long-range plan commitments. The long-range planning process includes reviews of the assumptions used by the business segments in generating their financial projections, such as industry trends and competitive assessments, current and future projected program performance levels and the risks and opportunities surrounding these baseline assumptions. The long-range plan on which our financial goals are based is tied to the business environment in which we operate and can vary year-over-year. Our long-range plan values for Sales, Segment Operating Profit (see Appendix A for definition of Non-GAAP terms) and Cash from Operations are set forth in the 2020 guidance we provided publicly to investors in January 2020 and represent the target level (100% performance) for each of these metrics. For the purposes of assessing performance under our annual incentive program, Cash from Operations results are adjusted for unplanned pension contributions, so that the impact on incentive compensation is not a factor in the decision to make the additional pension contribution. We established maximum (200% performance) and threshold payout levels (50% performance) around these targets based on a review of historical performance against long-range plan commitments for each of the three annual incentive metrics, which ensures the appropriate level of rigor on each of the threshold, target and maximum goals. We used straight-line interpolation between target and both maximum and minimum historical performance levels. The Compensation Committee reviewed the methodology and the targets established as part of its annual process during 2020.

Executive Compensation
Strategic & Operational Assessment (30% Weight). Our strategic and operational performance assessments are evaluated differently than financial performance assessments. For the 2020 performance year, a broad set of goals were established for our strategic and operational commitments at the beginning of the year, including goals tied to the development of new business, program performance, technological innovation, and executing on sustainability initiatives, such as achievement of pre-established measures and targets related to diversity and talent management. The strategic and operational performance goals are not measured against quantitative performance criteria for each goal, because some are aspirational, cannot be forecasted reliably or are qualitative in nature. When determining the overall payout factor, the Compensation Committee considers both quantitative and qualitative results and applies discretion when evaluating performance in totality. The strategic and operational performance goals and results are set forth below.

Executive Compensation
In determining the appropriate level of equity grants for 2020, the Compensation Committee took into consideration the long-term incentive market rate (50th percentile) along with a variety of other factors, including the number of awards outstanding and shares remaining available for issuance under the Corporation’s equity incentive plans, the number of shares that would be issued under contemplated awards over the range of potential performance achievement, the total number of the Corporation’s outstanding shares, the resulting implications for stockholder dilution and the number of shares granted to our executives year-over-year.
PSU Awards (50% of the LTI award)
PSU awards are calculated by multiplying the overall target LTI award value by the 50% weighting assigned to the PSU portion. The number of PSUs granted is determined based on the closing stock price of the Corporation's common stock on the NYSE on the date of grant. Each NEO’s PSU target number of shares is determined as of the grant date of the award, and the actual number of shares earned at the end of the period is calculated based on our performance measured against the three financial metrics as follows: 50% Relative TSR, 25% ROIC and 25% Performance Cash.
The number of shares granted at the end of the cycle can range from 0% to 200% of the applicable target number of shares. If average TSR is negative at the end of the performance cycle, the payout factor for the Relative TSR measure is capped at 100%. In addition, the maximum value that can be earned under a PSU award is 400% of the stock price on the date of grant times the shares earned. The award calculation is formulaic pursuant to the provisions defined in the award agreement, and no adjustment can be made to the final number of shares granted, which is determined based on the performance outcomes relative to our pre-set goals. Participants also accrue deferred dividend equivalents on the shares earned, which are paid in cash following vesting of the underlying shares.
RSU Awards (30% of LTI award)
RSU awards are calculated by multiplying the overall target LTI award value by the 30% weighting assigned to the RSU portion.
The number of RSUs granted is determined based on the closing stock price of the Corporation's common stock on the NYSE on the date of grant. Deferred dividend equivalents are accrued during the vesting period and paid in cash following the vesting of the underlying shares.
LTIP Awards (20% of the LTI award)
LTIP awards are cash-based and are calculated by multiplying the overall target LTI award value by the 20% weighting assigned to the LTIP portion. Each NEO’s LTIP target is determined at the time of grant, and the actual award earned at the end of the three-year performance period is calculated based on the same performance measures as those used for the PSUs (50% Relative TSR, 25% ROIC and 25% Performance Cash).
Payouts can range from 0% to 200% of the applicable target. If average TSR is negative at the end of the performance cycle, the payout factor for the Relative TSR measure is capped at 100%. The award calculation is formulaic pursuant to the provisions defined in the award agreement, and no adjustment can be made to the final payout factor, which is determined based on the performance outcomes relative to our pre-set goals. For the 2020-2022 LTIP grants, any amount payable to a single participant in excess of $10 million will be forfeited.
Selection of LTI Performance Measures
The LTI performance metrics approved by the Compensation Committee are measures that we believe most effectively support our long-term business and strategic goals and directly tie the long-term goals of our executive leadership team to the interests of our stockholders.
The measurements used for the financial component of our 2020 annual incentive plan (Sales, Segment Operating Profit and Cash from Operations) also serve as the foundation for achieving our long-term goals such that we must consistently achieve or exceed the Corporation’s annual goals in order to achieve our LTI goals.
The selected LTI performance metrics consist of Relative TSR (50% weight), ROIC (25% weight) and Performance Cash (25% weight). We chose these three metrics because we believe they represent the best measures of value creation for the Corporation over a long-term period. We also applied equal weighting to the market-based measure of value creation, TSR, to what we believe are the best internal measures of value creation, Performance Cash and ROIC.

Executive Compensation
We selected Relative TSR to measure our performance against our industry peers, including the S&P Aerospace Index companies and other large publicly traded U.S. Government contractors. Because every industry faces different challenges and opportunities, we believe that comparing our TSR against peers facing a similar business environment is preferred to comparisons outside our industry.
Accordingly, the Relative TSR Comparators for the 2020-2022 performance cycle are shown below:
2020-2022 Relative TSR Comparators
Arconic Inc.
Honeywell International Inc.
Textron Inc.
Booz Allen Hamilton Holding Corporation
Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc.
The Boeing Company
CACI International Inc.
Leidos Holdings, Inc.
TransDigm Group Incorporated
General Dynamics Corporation
Northrop Grumman Corporation
Raytheon Technologies Corporation*
L3Harris Technologies
Science Applications International Corp.
*In April 2020, Raytheon Company and United Technologies Corporation merged to form Raytheon Technologies Corporation.
Because the Relative TSR index is not perfectly aligned with the businesses in which Lockheed Martin operates and because any number of macro-economic factors that could affect market performance are beyond the control of the Corporation, we use ROIC and Performance Cash as internal measures that are directly affected by management’s decisions. ROIC measures how effectively we employ our capital over time, while Performance Cash provides the means for investment or value creation. By including a cash measure in both our annual and long-term incentive plans, the plans mitigate the risk of short-term cash strategies that do not create long-term value.
In tandem, we believe that these metrics drive the behaviors of our management team in ways that are intended to create the most value for our stockholders.
Setting Performance Goals for PSUs and LTIP
Our long-range planning process is used to establish the target (100% level of payment) for the Performance Cash and ROIC metrics in the PSU and LTIP grants. In setting minimum and maximum levels of payment, we reviewed historical levels of performance against long-range plan commitments, and conducted sensitivity analyses on alternative outcomes focused on identifying likely minimum and maximum boundary performance levels. Levels between 100% and the minimum and maximum levels were derived using linear interpolation between the performance hurdles. The specific Performance Cash and ROIC target values for the 2020-2022 PSU and LTIP plans are not publicly disclosed at the time of grant due to the proprietary nature and competitive sensitivity of the information. However, the method used to calculate the awards will be based on actual performance compared to the Corporation’s 2020-2022 targets, which use straight-line interpolation between points.
The individual award agreements require pre-specified adjustments to ensure that the ultimate payouts are not impacted to the benefit or detriment of management by specified events that would result in a difference between planned and actual financial results, such as unplanned pension contributions, changes in accounting (GAAP) standards, the impact of an acquisition or divestiture valued at more than $1 billion, or changes in tax law or interpretations related to amortization for research and experimental expenditures.
In September 2020, the Compensation Committee approved changes to current and future LTI award agreements to allow the Corporation to adjust for the impact, if any, from the CARES Act provisions on payroll tax deferrals and progress payment class deviation changes. The Compensation Committee approved these amendments to outstanding long term incentive award agreements to ensure that the ultimate payouts are not impacted to a participant’s benefit or detriment by government stimulus and assistance programs enacted in response to COVID-19. No adjustments were made to our 2018-2020 results given the Corporation used the accelerated progress payments from the U.S. Government and payroll tax benefit to accelerate payments to our suppliers during 2020. Our deferral of payroll taxes under the CARES Act from 2020 to future periods now will not have the unintended effect of increasing our cash performance during 2020 (and corresponding decrease in cash in future periods) and the acceleration of progress payments to us by the U.S. Government under the CARES Act will also not have the unintended effect of increasing our cash performance during 2020. The amendments adopted in September 2020 also allow the Corporation to adjust for non-cash settlement charges associated with pension risk transfer transactions. We have in recent years entered into pension risk transfer transactions to manage our pension liabilities through the purchase of group annuity contracts for portions of our outstanding defined benefit pension obligations and future transactions could result in a non-cash settlement charge to earnings that should not affect the payout to management.
The Compensation Committee does not have discretion to adjust the results of the PSU and LTIP awards beyond the adjustments specified in the award agreements.

2018-2020 LTIP and PSU Awards
The cash-based LTIP and share-based PSU payouts for the three-year performance period ended December 31, 2020 shown below were calculated by comparing actual corporate performance for each metric for the period January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2020, against a table of payment levels from 0% to 200% (with the 100% payout level being considered target) established at the beginning of the performance period in February 2018. Except as discussed above in relation to government stimulus and assistance programs enacted in response to COVID-19 and pension risk transfer transactions, we have not made any modifications to our compensation programs or to our targets or goals, in response to COVID-19 or the CARES Act.

The 2018-2020 target PSU award value was allocated to each performance measure based on the pre-defined weightings, namely 50% to Relative TSR, 25% to ROIC, and 25% to Performance Cash. PSU awards earned are calculated by multiplying the payout factor for each performance metric by the target number of units for each performance metric. The actual value realized by the NEOs at vesting also depends on our stock price, which may be higher or lower than the grant date fair market value.

2021 Incentives
2021 Annual Incentive Goals
There were no changes to our annual incentive plan design for the 2021 performance year, although the Board of Directors, acting upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, in February 2021 approved the Lockheed Martin Corporation 2021 Management Incentive Compensation Plan to replace the existing MICP. The 2021 MICP eliminates provisions in the prior MICP that were intended to qualify MICP payments as performance-based compensation subject to an exemption to the deductibility limit of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, which was repealed in 2017. The 2021 MICP also aligns the pro-ration provisions to our broad-based incentive plan, which provides for daily pro-ration of payouts.
The Compensation Committee approved the key corporate commitments set forth below for purposes of assessing 2021 performance.
2021 Financial Goals (Weight 70%)
The financial commitments are consistent with our long-range plan commitments, and are the same ranges we provided as public guidance in January 2021 in our year-end earnings release. These commitments for 2021 are set forth below.
2021 CommitmentsWeighting2021 Goals ($)
Sales20%67,100 - 68,500M
Segment Operating Profit40%7,355 - 7,495M
Cash from Operations40% ≥ 8,300M
For the purposes of assessing performance under our annual incentive program, Cash from Operations results are adjusted for unplanned pension contributions so that the impact on incentive compensation is not a factor in the decision to make additional pension contributions.
2021 Strategic and Operational Goals (Weight 30%)
Focus Programs: Shape and secure Key Focus Program wins and achieve Keep Sold Program milestones
International: Continue international expansion through increased orders and sales
Mission Success: Achieve Mission Success milestones
Enterprise Performance: Achieve customer commitments and increase stockholder value through program performance, product deliveries, supply chain performance, affordability and sustainability
Portfolio Shaping / Enterprise Initiatives: Assess the Corporation portfolio on an ongoing basis to maximize stockholder value, including M&A activity, cost competitiveness and other Enterprise-wide initiatives
Innovation: Execute 21st Century Warfare strategy to include technology development, demonstrations, and commercial partnerships. Drive infrastructure modernization, technology development and functional capability adoption to digitally transform the enterprise
Talent Management: Attract, develop and retain the workforce needed to deliver commitments to customers, employees and stockholders
2021 Long-Term Incentive Award Opportunities
For 2021, the LTI award mix is the same as last year and for the CEO and other NEOs is allocated 50% toward PSUs, 20% toward LTIP and 30% toward RSUs.
The terms and performance measures of the 2021-2023 PSUs and LTIP awards are similar to the 2020-2022 awards (see pages 51-53). The 2021-2023 PSU and LTIP award agreements require specified adjustments to ensure that the ultimate payouts are not impacted to the benefit or detriment of management by specified events that would result in a difference between planned and actual financial results, including the impact of CARES Act provisions on payroll tax deferrals and progress payment changes, pension risk transfer transactions, or changes in tax law or interpretations related to amortization for research and experimental expenditures.
In February 2021, the Compensation Committee approved a new Relative TSR Comparators peer group beginning with the 2021-2023 performance cycle. While the S&P Aerospace & Defense peers and other large government contractors has been, in our judgment, the preferred peer group against which to compare our Relative TSR, it has been impacted by multiple business transactions and exhibited significant volatility in the number of its constituents over the past several years. To moderate the potential effect of corporate

Other Compensation Matters
Our Use of Independent Compensation Consultants
The independent compensation consultant provides important information about market practices, the types and amounts of compensation offered to executives generally and the role of corporate governance considerations in making compensation decisions. The Compensation Committee’s charter authorizes it to retain outside advisors that it believes are appropriate to assist in evaluating executive compensation.
For 2020, the Compensation Committee continued to retain Meridian as an independent compensation consultant. In connection with its retention of Meridian, the Compensation Committee considered the following factors in assessing Meridian’s independence:
Meridian’s services for the Corporation are limited to executive and director compensation.
The compensation paid to Meridian is less than 1% of Meridian’s revenues.
Meridian has business ethics and insider trading and stock ownership policies, which are designed to avoid conflicts of interest.
Meridian employees supporting the engagement and their immediate family members do not own Lockheed Martin securities.
Meridian employees supporting the engagement have no business or personal relationships with members of the Compensation Committee or with any Lockheed Martin executive officer.
At its February 2021 meeting, the Compensation Committee renewed the engagement of Meridian. At that time, Meridian confirmed the continuing accuracy of each of the factors described above.
The nature and scope of Meridian’s engagement was determined by the Compensation Committee and not limited in any way by management.
Policy Regarding Timing of Equity Grants
We have a corporate policy statement concerning the grant of equity awards. Under that policy:
The Compensation Committee is responsible for determining the grant date of all equity awards to executive officers.
No equity award may be backdated. A future date may be used if, among other reasons, the Compensation Committee’s action occurs in proximity to the release of earnings or during a trading blackout period.
Proposed equity awards are presented to the Compensation Committee in February of each year. Off-cycle awards may be considered in special circumstances, which may include hiring, retention or acquisition transactions.
In addition, our equity plans explicitly prohibit repricing of stock options or paying cash for underwater stock options.
Clawback and Other Protective Provisions
The Governance Guidelines include a clawback policy, which provides that if the Board of Directors determines that an officer’s intentional misconduct, gross negligence or failure to report such acts by another person was a contributing factor in requiring us to restate any of our financial statements or constituted fraud, bribery or another illegal act (or contributed to another person’s fraud, bribery or other illegal act) which adversely impacted our financial position or reputation, then the Board shall take such action as it deems in the best interest of the Corporation and necessary to remedy the misconduct and prevent its recurrence. Among other actions, the Board may seek to recover or require reimbursement of any amount awarded to the officer after January 1, 2008, in the form of an annual incentive bonus or LTI award.
In February 2019, the Compensation Committee enhanced the clawback policy to ensure that it has the most appropriate level of discretionary authority and powers to protect the Corporation and its stockholders' interests. These enhancements were the result of the Compensation Committee's consideration of a number of highly publicized events involving high-level executives of other companies. Following the Compensation Committee’s proactive analysis of the Corporation's policies in light of these events, the
www.lockheedmartin.com2021 Proxy Statement

Executive Compensation
Compensation Committee amended the clawback policy to add two additional situations in which incentive compensation paid to an officer could be clawed back: (1) an officer’s intentional misconduct or gross negligence that causes severe reputational or financial harm to the Corporation and (2) an officer’s misappropriation of Lockheed Martin Proprietary Information that causes, or is intended to cause, severe reputational or financial harm to the Corporation. These additional situations apply to incentive compensation awarded in 2019 and thereafter.
The clawback policy is incorporated into our annual incentive plan and in the award agreements for the long-term incentive awards, covering all variable incentive compensation. There were no events requiring Board consideration of a clawback action during 2020. In the event the Board recoups incentive compensation under the policy, management intends to disclose the aggregate amount of incentive compensation recovered, so long as the underlying event has already been publicly disclosed in our filings with the SEC. This disclosure would appear in the proxy statement following any such Board action and would provide the aggregate amount of recovery for each event if there is more than one applicable event. The award agreements for the NEOs also contain post-employment restrictive covenants. The post-employment restrictions were incorporated into all executive-level award agreements beginning in 2011, and compensation awarded under those agreements may be subject to clawback in the event an executive breaches any of the post-employment restrictive covenants.
Anti-Hedging and Pledging Policy
Our policies prohibit hedging and pledging of Lockheed Martin stock by all directors, officers and employees. Under our policies, Lockheed Martin directors, officers and employees may not purchase or sell derivative securities based on Lockheed Martin common stock or other Lockheed Martin securities. This policy also prohibits hedging or monetization transactions such as forward-sale contracts, equity swaps, collars and exchange funds, that are designed to hedge or offset any decrease in the market value of equity securities, lock in then-current market gains without the sale of the underlying security, or transactions in which the director or employee may divest aspects of the risks and rewards of ownership. This policy applies both to shares of Lockheed Martin common stock (1) that are granted to directors, officers or employees by Lockheed Martin as part of their compensation and (2) held, directly or indirectly, by directors, officers or employees.
Stock Ownership Requirements for Key Employees
To better align their interests with the long-term interests of our stockholders, we expect our officers (including the NEOs) and other members of management to maintain an ownership interest in the Corporation based on the following guidelines:
6x
base salary for CEO and Chairman
4x
base salary for Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer
3x
base salary for Executive Vice Presidents
2x
base salary for Senior Vice Presidents and Elected Vice Presidents
NEOs are required to achieve ownership levels within five years of assuming their role and must hold net shares from vested RSUs and PSUs and net shares from options exercised until the value of the shares equals the specified multiple of base salary. The securities counted toward their respective target threshold include common stock, unvested RSUs, and stock units under our 401(k) plans and other deferral plans. Unvested PSUs at target are not counted towards ownership levels. As of December 31, 2020, each of our NEOs had exceeded their respective ownership requirements.

Executive Compensation
Benefit, Retirement and Perquisite Programs
We offer other compensatory arrangements to our NEOs. The purpose for these benefits is to ensure security of executives, provide assistance with business-related expenses, and be competitive with the other companies in our industry. Below is a summary of programs available to our NEOs. Further details are described in footnotes to the Summary Compensation Table on page 58.
Health, Welfare and Retirement Benefits. Our NEOs are eligible for savings, pension, medical, disability, and life insurance benefits under the plans available to salaried, non-union employees. We offer supplemental pension and savings plans to make up for benefits that otherwise would be unavailable due to Internal Revenue Service (IRS) limits on qualified plans. These plans are restorative and do not provide an enhanced benefit. We also offer a plan for the deferral of short-term and long-term cash performance incentive compensation. Pension and supplemental pension plans that the NEOs participate in were completely frozen effective January 1, 2020.
Perquisites and Security. Perquisites provided to the NEOs include executive physicals, relocation assistance (when applicable) and personal travel on the corporate aircraft, as well as home and personal security as needed to address security concerns arising out of our business. We believe security is necessary and generally provided to executives within our industry given the nature of our business. In the event of a threat to an executive officer, the CBS Committee reviews the security recommended by our Chief Security Officer, and approves accordingly. Furthermore, our Board has directed our CEO to use corporate aircraft for security reasons while on personal travel. Other NEOs may use the corporate aircraft for personal travel dependent upon circumstances and availability. For 2020, personal use of the corporate aircraft for Mr. Taiclet and Ms. Hewson amounted to $284,175 and $284,495, respectively. For Mr. Taiclet and Mr. St. John, the perquisites amounts reported for 2020 included $295,281 and $116,400, respectively, associated with their relocation expenses incurred during 2020 and pursuant to our relocation policy.
Tax Assistance. We do not have agreements or severance arrangements that provide tax gross-ups for excise taxes imposed as a result of a change in control. In 2020, we provided tax assistance for taxable security expenses, relocation-related expenses in accordance with our relocation policies, and travel expenses for a family member accompanying a NEO for a business reason. In addition, we pay an amount estimated to cover the state income tax imposed on employees who became subject to income tax in a state other than their state of residence due to business travel.
Tax assistance was provided for these items because the associated tax liability imposed on the executive would not have been incurred unless business reasons required the items to be provided or the executive to travel to the non-resident state. For Ms. Hewson, the total tax assistance amount reported for 2020 included a $61,256 payment attributable to non-resident state income taxes, including payment associated with long-term incentive awards, which were incurred as a result of her business travel to a state other than her state of residence. In connection with their new positions, Mr. Taiclet, Mr. Possenriede and Mr. St. John relocated during 2020, 2019 and 2019, respectively, and incurred certain related expenses that were tax-assisted under our relocation policy. For Mr. Taiclet and Mr. St. John, the total tax assistance amounts reported for 2020 included $174,136 and $68,204, respectively, associated with their relocation expenses incurred pursuant to our relocation policy.
Post-Employment, Change in Control, Divestiture and Severance Benefits
Our NEOs do not have employment agreements but participate in the Lockheed Martin Corporation Executive Severance Plan. Benefits are payable under this plan in the event of a Corporation-initiated termination of employment other than for cause. All of the NEOs are covered under the plan. The benefit payable in a lump sum under the plan is two weeks of basic severance plus a supplemental payment of one times the NEO’s base salary and the equivalent of one year’s target annual incentive bonus. For the CEO, the multiplier is 2.99 instead of one. NEOs participating in the plan also receive a lump sum payment to cover the cost of medical benefits for one year in addition to outplacement and relocation services. To receive the supplemental severance benefit, the NEO must execute a release of claims and an agreement containing post-employment, non-compete and non-solicitation covenants identical to those included in our NEOs’ LTI award agreements.
With respect to LTI, upon certain terminations of employment, including death, disability, retirement, layoff, divestiture or a change in control, the NEOs may be eligible for continued vesting on the normal schedule, immediate payment of benefits previously earned or accelerated vesting of LTI in full or on a pro rata basis. The type of event and the nature of the benefit determine which of these approaches will apply. The purpose of these provisions is to protect previously earned or granted benefits by making them available following the specified event. We view the vesting (or continued vesting) to be an important retention feature for senior-level employees. Because benefits paid at termination consist of previously granted or earned benefits, we do not consider termination benefits as a separate item in compensation decisions. Our LTI awards do not provide for tax assistance.
In the event of a change in control, our plans provide for the acceleration of the payment of the non-qualified portion of earned pension benefits and non-qualified deferred compensation. All LTI awards require a “double trigger” for vesting to accelerate (both a change in control and a qualifying termination of employment), unless the successor does not assume or continue the awards or provide substitute awards.

The ASC 718 grant date fair value of one 2020 RSU ($384.17 for grants made in February 2020, $382.07 for Mr. Taiclet's replacement equity award granted in July 2020 and $382.01 for other grants made in July 2020), 2019 RSU ($303.59) and 2018 RSU ($354.60), is the closing price of one share of our stock on the date of grant, discounted to take into account the deferred dividend equivalents that are accrued until vesting.
Values for the PSUs, which are subject to performance conditions, are based on the probable outcome on the grant date of three separate performance conditions (50% of the target shares are earned based upon Relative TSR, 25% of the target shares are earned based upon Performance Cash, and 25% of the target shares are earned based upon ROIC).
The grant date fair value of $469.44 for February 2020, $571.15 for July 2020, $301.03 for 2019 and $420.75 for 2018 for the Relative TSR portion of the PSU award was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The value was determined using the historical stock price volatilities of the companies in our comparator group over the most recent 2.84-year period for February 2020, 2.43-year period for July 2020, and 2.86-year period for 2019 and 2018, respectively, assuming dividends for each company are reinvested on a continuous basis and a risk-free rate of interest of 1.08% for February 2020, 0.16% for July 2020, 2.48% for 2019 and 2.38% for 2018, and that deferred dividend equivalents accrued on shares earned will be paid in cash upon vesting. The grant date fair value of $384.17 for February 2020, $382.04 for July 2020, $303.59 for 2019 and $354.60 for 2018 for the Performance Cash and ROIC portions of the awards is based on the closing price of our stock on the date of grant, discounted to take into account the deferred dividend equivalents that are accrued until vesting. In addition to the level of performance achieved, the value of the PSUs earned will be determined by the price of our stock on the date any shares are issued at the end of the performance period, which may be more or less than the grant date fair value.
The maximum grant date fair values of the 2020 PSU awards, assuming a 200% maximum payout on all three metrics are as follows: Mr. Taiclet: $17,463,583; Ms. Hewson: $16,647,102; Mr. Possenriede: $5,160,926; Mr. St. John: $5,183,289; Mr. Ambrose: $4,439,711; and Ms. Evans $4,994,557.
The maximum grant date fair values of the 2019 PSU awards, assuming a 200% maximum payout on all three metrics are as follows: Ms. Hewson: $14,197,080; Mr. Possenriede: $4,468,142; Mr. St. John: $3,897,381; Mr. Ambrose: $3,897,381; and Ms. Evans $3,897,381.
The maximum grant date fair values of the 2018 PSU awards, assuming a 200% maximum payout on all three metrics are as follows: Ms. Hewson: $12,235,264; Mr. Ambrose: $3,600,760; and Mr. St. John: $3,600,760.

Executive Compensation
Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation (Column (g))
Includes the amount paid for annual incentive bonuses paid under the Lockheed Martin Corporation Amended and Restated 2006 Management Incentive Compensation Plan (MICP). The Compensation Committee will continue to use discretion to assess performance against objectives established at the beginning of the year. We also report amounts earned under our LTIP cash awards in the three-year period ending on December 31 of the year reported in Column (g) of the table.
The table below shows the respective 2020 annual incentive bonus and amount earned under the 2018-2020 cash LTIP and reported for each NEO:

Change in Pension Value and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Earnings (Column (h))
Reports the change in the present value of the pension benefit for the NEO for the year reported (for example, from December 31, 2019 to December 31, 2020) and is not the amount that will be paid to the NEO. This column also reports above-market earnings on compensation that was deferred before 2009 by the NEOs under the Interest Investment Option of our Deferred Management Incentive Compensation Plan as follows: Ms. Hewson $6,661; Mr. Ambrose $2,144; and Ms. Evans $125. In 2019, this column also reported above-market earnings on compensation that was deferred before 2009 by the NEOs under the Interest Investment Option as follows: Ms. Hewson $5,259; Mr. Ambrose $1,693; and Ms. Evans $99. In 2018, this column also reported above-market earnings on compensation that was deferred before 2009 by the NEOs under the Interest Investment Option as follows: Ms. Hewson $68 and Mr. Ambrose $22. Above-market earnings represent the difference between the interest rate used to calculate earnings under the Interest Investment Option and 120% of the applicable federal long-term rate prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code. The Interest Investment Option was closed to new deferrals and transfers from other investment options effective July 1, 2009. See the 2020 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation table on page 69 for additional information.
The disclosure of the change in present value of the pension benefit is based on the Corporation’s final average compensation formula in its defined benefit plan which multiplies (x) a percentage (1.25% of compensation below the social security wage base and 1.5% above that level) times (y) years of service ending with 2019 times (z) the average of the employee’s highest three years of compensation in the last ten years ending with 2015. This is the same formula used for all participants accruing a pension benefit prior to 2020 and none of the NEOs has been credited with any extra years of service or provided a benefit from a special or enhanced formula. Under a three-year final average compensation formula, increasing service (prior to January 1, 2020), age and compensation (prior to January 1, 2016) resulted in increases in the accrued benefits for years prior to 2020. Effective January 1, 2020, accrued benefits under the qualified and nonqualified defined benefit pension plans for salaried employees were fully frozen.
The Summary Compensation Table uses the same discount rate and longevity assumptions that we use to report pension liabilities for all pension plan participants in our financial statements. These assumptions are updated annually for the year-end measurements of our pension plans. The amounts reported for 2020, 2019 and 2018 used a discount rate of 2.50%, 3.25% and 4.25%, respectively. The Change in Pension Value for the NEOs reported in Column (h) for 2020 was primarily related to a change in the discount rate assumptions from 3.25% as of December 31, 2019 to 2.50% as of December 31, 2020.

Executive Compensation
All Other Compensation (Column (i))
Perquisites and other personal benefits provided to the NEOs in 2020 included: security; relocation benefits (when applicable); annual executive physicals; home office support; use of corporate aircraft for personal travel and other related expenses; travel and other expenses for a family member accompanying the NEO while on business travel; and promotional items. Not all of the listed perquisites or personal benefits were provided to each NEO. In addition, the Corporation made available a company-provided car and driver for personal commuting to some of the NEOs in 2020 and may provide event tickets from time to time, but requires the NEOs to reimburse the Corporation for the incremental cost to the Corporation of such items. The cost of any category of the listed perquisites and personal benefits did not exceed the greater of $25,000 or 10% of total perquisites and personal benefits for any NEO, except for: (i) security for Ms. Hewson $141,866; (ii) personal use of the corporate aircraft for Mr. Taiclet $284,175; Ms. Hewson $284,495; Mr. St. John $91,458; Mr. Ambrose $78,514; and Ms. Evans $119,951; and (iii) relocation expenses for Mr. Taiclet $295,281; and Mr. St. John $116,400. The incremental cost for use of corporate aircraft for personal travel and as part of relocation benefits was calculated based on the total personal travel flight hours multiplied by the estimated hourly aircraft operating costs for 2020 (including fuel, maintenance, staff travel expenses, catering and other variable costs, but excluding fixed capital costs for the aircraft, hangar facilities, and staff salaries).
The incremental cost for personal security is calculated based on billings for services and equipment from third parties and for overtime and related expenses where the services are provided by the Corporation’s personnel. Given the nature of our business, additional security may be provided for travel in high-risk areas or to address particular situations. We believe that providing personal security in response to concerns arising out of employment by the Corporation is business-related.
In addition to perquisites, column (i) also contains items of compensation listed in the following table. All items are paid under broad-based programs for U.S. salaried employees except for the non-employee director fees, tax assistance and the Lockheed Martin Corporation Supplemental Savings Plan (NQSSP) and the Lockheed Martin Corporation Nonqualified Capital Accumulation Plan (NCAP) (together, the Nonqualified Defined Contribution Plans) match or Corporation contributions. Amounts under Matching Gift Programs include matching contributions made to eligible universities, colleges and other non-profit organizations under the Corporation’s matching gift programs generally available to all employees and include contributions to be made in 2021 to match 2020 executive contributions. Amounts under Corporation Contributions to Health Savings Accounts reflect the Corporation's annual $500 contribution to the health savings accounts of all employees who have a high-deductible health insurance plan as of January 1 of a given year. Amounts under Term Life Insurance Opt-Out Credit reflect cash payments made to NEOs who opt out of the Corporation's broad-based employee term life insurance program, which option is available to all salaried employees of the Corporation. As permitted by the disclosure regulations, the premium cost for the NEOs' participation in the Corporation's broad-based employee term life insurance has not been included for 2020. The $73,924 in non-employee director fees that Mr. Taiclet received were for his service as a non-employee director for the period January 1, 2020 through June 14, 2020, prior to becoming President and Chief Executive Officer on June 15, 2020.

these items because the associated tax liability imposed on the executive would not have been incurred unless business reasons required the items to be provided or the executive to travel to the non-resident state or to be relocated.
*Total Without Change In Pension Value
The separate column labeled “Total Without Change in Pension Value” shows total compensation as required to be disclosed by the SEC in column (j) less the amount shown in Change in Pension Value and Nonqualified Deferred Compensation Earnings in column (h). We provided this column because the amount reported in column (h) for Change in Pension Value is not current compensation and represents the change in present value of an estimated stream of payments to be made following retirement. The methodology used to report the Change in Pension Value under applicable accounting rules is sensitive to assumptions about life expectancy and changes in the discount rate determined at each year end, which are functions of economic factors and actuarial calculations that are outside of the control of the Compensation Committee. The amounts shown in the separate column are not a substitute for the amounts reported in the Total column.

Executive Compensation
Estimated Future Payouts Under Non-Equity Incentive Plan Awards (Columns (c), (d) and (e))
Includes annual incentive grants (MICP) for 2020 and LTIP grants for the 2020-2022 performance period ending December 31, 2022.
The MICP measures performance over a one-year period and is described under “2020 Annual Incentive” on page 48. The threshold, or minimum amount payable (assuming an award is earned), is 7% of target while the maximum is 200% of target.
The LTIP award measures performance against three separate metrics described under “2020 Long-Term Incentive Compensation” on page 50. The threshold is the minimum amount payable for a specified level of performance stated in the LTIP award agreement. For the 2020-2022 award, the threshold amount payable is 6.25% of the target award. The maximum award payable under the LTIP award is 200% of target value. Awards are subject to forfeiture upon termination of employment prior to the end of the performance period, except in the event of retirement, death, disability, divestiture, layoff or change in control. If death, disability, or divestiture occurs prior to the end of the performance period, LTIP awards are prorated. If the employee retires or is laid off after six months from the date of grant, but prior to the end of the performance period, the LTIP awards are prorated. Following a change in control, the 2020-2022 LTIP awards vest at the target amount upon involuntary termination without cause or voluntary termination with good reason or if the successor does not assume the LTIP awards.
Mr. Taiclet's threshold, target and maximum for his MICP grant are prorated based on time served during fiscal year 2020.
Estimated Future Payouts Under Equity Incentive Plan Awards (Columns (f), (g) and (h))
The table includes PSU awards for the 2020-2022 performance period ending December 31, 2022. PSU awards typically have a three-year vesting period ending on the third anniversary of the date of grant (i.e., February 27, 2023 for the February 27, 2020 grants); however, the July 27, 2020 PSU grants have the same performance period and vesting end date as the February 27, 2020 grants. At the end of the vesting period, the amount earned is payable in shares of stock and cash representing deferred dividend equivalents accrued on the earned shares during the three-year performance period. PSU awards are subject to forfeiture upon termination of employment prior to the end of the vesting period, except in the event of retirement or layoff occurring after six months from the date of grant or in the event of death, disability or divestiture. In any of these events, PSU awards are paid out at the end of the vesting period on a prorated basis. Following a change in control, the PSUs vest at the target amount upon involuntary termination without cause or voluntary termination with good reason or if the successor does not assume the PSUs.
Shares are earned under the PSU awards based upon performance against three separate metrics described under “PSU Awards” on page 51. If performance falls below the threshold level of performance, no shares would be earned. Assuming any payment is earned, the minimum amount payable under the PSU award is 6.25% of the target shares, the lowest level payable under any of these metrics. The maximum number of shares payable under the PSU is 200% of the number of target shares.
All Other Stock Awards: Number of Shares of Stock (Column (i))
Shows the number of RSUs granted on February 27, 2020 and July 27, 2020. All RSU awards vest on the third anniversary of the date of grant except for the award of 14,869 RSUs granted to Mr. Taiclet as an equity replacement award to offset forfeited unvested incentive awards from his former employer. Of the 14,869 RSUs granted to Mr. Taiclet as an equity replacement award, 7,689 RSUs vest on the first anniversary of the grant date and 7,180 RSUs vest on the second anniversary of the grant date. RSU awards other than Mr. Taiclet's equity replacement award are subject to forfeiture upon termination of employment prior to the end of the vesting period, except in the event of retirement or layoff occurring after six months from the date of grant or death, disability or divestiture. RSU awards vest immediately upon death or disability. RSU awards are prorated upon divestiture if not assumed by the successor. Following a change in control, the RSUs vest upon involuntary termination without cause or voluntary termination for good reason or if the successor does not assume the RSUs. If the employee retires or is laid off after six months from the date of grant, but prior to the third anniversary of the date of grant, the RSUs become nonforfeitable and are paid at the end of the vesting period. Mr. Taiclet's equity replacement award is subject to the same provisions described above except in the event of retirement and layoff. In the event of retirement, Mr. Taiclet will forfeit all unvested RSUs. In the event of a layoff before the first anniversary of the grant date, 7,689 RSUs will immediately vest and the remainder will be forfeited. In the event of a layoff after the first anniversary but before the second anniversary of the date of grant, all remaining unvested RSUs will immediately vest.

Executive Compensation
During the vesting period, deferred dividend equivalents are accrued and subject to the same vesting schedule as the underlying RSUs. At the end of the vesting period, the RSUs are paid in shares of stock and the deferred dividend equivalents are paid in cash. If any tax withholding is required on the 2020 RSUs and deferred dividend equivalents during the vesting period (for example, on account of retirement eligibility), the RSUs provide for accelerated vesting of the number of shares and deferred dividend equivalents required to satisfy the tax withholding. The award is then reduced by the number of shares and deferred dividend equivalents subject to acceleration of vesting for tax withholding.
In addition, for Mr. Taiclet, column (i) shows the annual award of stock units on January 30, 2020 under the Director's Equity Plan (DEP) made to Mr. Taiclet in his capacity as a non-employee director. This award was forfeited by Mr. Taiclet upon his commencement of employment as President and Chief Executive Officer on June 15, 2020.
Grant Date Fair Value of Stock Awards (Column (l))
Represents the aggregate grant date fair value computed in accordance with FASB ASC 718 for RSUs and PSUs granted in 2020 and stock units granted under the DEP in 2020, disregarding potential forfeitures based on service requirements.
The grant date fair value of the February 27, 2020, July 27, 2020 RSU grants (other than Mr. Taiclet's equity replacement award) and Mr. Taiclet's equity replacement award are $384.17, $382.01 and $382.07, respectively, per RSU, which is based on the closing price of one share of our common stock on the NYSE on the date of grant, discounted to take into account the deferred dividend equivalents accrued until vesting.
The grant date fair value for the PSUs, which are subject to performance conditions, is based on the probable outcome of each of the three performance conditions. The grant date fair value of $469.44 for February 2020 and $571.15 for July 2020 for the Relative TSR portion of the award is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The grant date fair value of $384.17 for February 2020 and $382.04 for July 2020 for the Performance Cash and ROIC portions of the awards is based on the closing price of one share of our stock on the date of grant, discounted to take into account the deferred dividend equivalents accrued until vesting.
As described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis on page 40, in determining 2020 awards of RSUs and PSUs other than Mr. Taiclet's replacement award, the closing stock price of Lockheed Martin common stock on the NYSE on the date of grant ($384.60 on February 27, 2020 and $382.09 on July 27, 2020) was used as opposed to the grant date fair value. For Mr. Taiclet's equity replacement award, which was intended to offset forfeited unvested incentives from his former employer estimated to be $5.5 million, the amount of RSUs to be awarded was based on the closing stock price of Lockheed Martin common stock on the NYSE on June 15, 2020 ($373.28), the effective date of Mr. Taiclet's appointment as President and CEO. The use of the closing stock price versus the grant date fair value results in a difference between the amounts described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis and the Grant Date Fair Value of the Stock Awards reported in column (l).
In addition, Mr. Taiclet's award of stock units under the DEP for his 2020 service as a non-employee director had an aggregate grant date fair value computed in accordance with ASC 718 of $162,500. This award was forfeited upon Mr. Taiclet's commencement of employment as President and Chief Executive Officer on June 15, 2020.

2020 Pension Benefits
During 2020, the NEOs (except Mr. Taiclet) participated in the Lockheed Martin Corporation Salaried Employee Retirement Program (LMRP), which is a combination of several prior plans (collectively, the “Prior Plan”) for some salaried employees with protected benefits.
The calculation of retirement benefits under the LMRP is determined by a formula that takes into account the participant’s years of credited service ending with 2019 and average compensation for the highest three years of the last ten years of employment ending with 2015. Average compensation includes the NEO’s base salary and annual incentive bonuses. Normal retirement age is 65; however, benefits are payable as early as age 55 at a reduced amount or without reduction at age 60. Benefits are payable as a monthly annuity for the lifetime of the employee, as a joint and survivor annuity, as a life annuity with a five- or ten-year guarantee, or as a level income annuity. The calculation of retirement benefits under the Prior Plan is based on a number of formulas, some of which take into account the participant’s years of credited service and pay over the career of the NEO. Certain other formulas in the Prior Plan are based upon the final average compensation and credited service of the employee. Pay under certain formulas in the Prior Plan included salary, commissions, overtime, shift differential, lump sum pay in lieu of a salary increase and annual incentive bonuses awarded that year.
All of the NEOs who participate in the LMRP were vested and (with the exception of Mr. St. John) are eligible for early retirement as of December 31, 2020 under the LMRP.
During 2020, the NEOs (except Mr. Taiclet) also participated in the Lockheed Martin Corporation Consolidated Supplemental Retirement Benefit Plan (Supplemental Pension), which is a restorative plan that provides benefits in excess of the benefit payable under IRS rules through the LMRP, our tax-qualified plan (see the footnote to column (d) to the “2020 Pension Benefits” table below).

Executive Compensation
The LMRP was frozen in two steps. Increases in compensation ceased to be taken into account effective January 1, 2016. Increases in service ceased to be taken into account effective January 1, 2020. This change in plan structure also carried over to the Supplemental Pension. As of January 1, 2020, eligible salaried employees (including the NEOs) receive a Corporation contribution of 6% of their base salary to the Lockheed Martin Corporation Salaried Savings Plan. The NEOs receive the 6% Corporation contribution in the NCAP after reaching the Internal Revenue Code limitation for this contribution in the qualified plan.

(1)    The Number of Years of Credited Service is one year less than the actual number of years of service for the NEOs listed in the table as increases in service ceased to be taken into account effective January 1, 2020.
Plan Name (Column (b))
The Supplemental Pension uses the same formula for benefits as the tax-qualified plan uses for calculating the NEO’s benefit. Although all service recognized under the tax-qualified plan is recognized under the Supplemental Pension, a benefit would have been earned under the Supplemental Pension only in years when the NEO’s total accrued benefit would have exceeded the benefit accrued under the tax-qualified plan. The Supplemental Pension benefits are payable in the same forms as benefits are paid under the LMRP, except lump sum payments are available under the Supplemental Pension to NEOs who first became eligible to participate in the Supplemental Pension on or before December 16, 2005.
Present Value of Accumulated Benefit (Column (d))
The amounts in column (d) were computed using the same assumptions we used to account for pension liabilities in our financial statements and as described in Note 12 to our financial statements contained in our 2020 Annual Report, except that the amounts were calculated based on benefits commencing at age 60 (or current age if greater). We used these ages rather than the plan’s normal retirement age of 65 because an employee may commence receiving pension benefits at age 60 without any reduction for early commencement. Amounts paid under our plans use assumptions contained in the plans and may be different than those used for financial statement reporting purposes. Benefits under the LMRP are payable, at the election of the participant, as a monthly annuity for the lifetime of the employee, as a joint and survivor annuity, as a life annuity with a five or ten year guarantee, or as a level income annuity. The Supplemental Pension benefits are payable in the same forms as the benefits are paid under the LMRP, except that participants who first became eligible to participate in the Supplemental Pension on or before December 16, 2005 (all NEOs except Mr. Taiclet and Mr. St. John) may elect a lump sum payment of their SERP benefits. If a NEO elected a lump sum payment, the amount of the lump sum would be based on plan assumptions and not the assumptions used for financial statement reporting purposes. As a result, the actual lump sum payment would be an amount different than what is reported in this table. The age of the NEO at retirement would also impact the size of the lump sum payment. The amount using plan assumptions is shown in the “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” table.

Executive Compensation
2020 Nonqualified Deferred Compensation
Participants in our tax-qualified defined contribution plan may defer up to 40% of base salary on a pre-tax, Roth or after-tax basis. In addition, we make a matching contribution equal to 50% of up to the first 8% of base salary contributed by the participant. Employee and Corporation matching contributions in excess of the Internal Revenue Code limitations may be contributed to the NQSSP on a pre-tax basis at the election of the NEO. We also make Corporation contributions in excess of the Internal Revenue Code limitations to the NCAP equal to 6% of the NEO’s base salary. Employee contributions, matching and Corporation contributions to the plans are nonforfeitable at all times. NQSSP and NCAP contributions are credited with earnings or losses, as appropriate, based on the investment options in which the account has been invested, as elected by the participant. Each of the NQSSP and NCAP investment options is available under our tax-qualified defined contribution plan for salaried employees. The NQSSP and NCAP provide for payment following termination of employment in a lump sum or up to 25 annual installments at the participant’s election. All amounts accumulated and unpaid under the NQSSP and NCAP must be paid in a lump sum within 15 calendar days following a change in control.
The Deferred Management Incentive Compensation Plan (DMICP) provides the opportunity to defer, until termination of employment or beyond, the receipt of all or a portion of annual incentive bonuses and LTIP awards. NEOs may elect any of the investment funds available in the NQSSP (with the exception of the Company Stock Fund) and two investment alternatives available only under the DMICP for crediting earnings (losses). Under the DMICP Stock Investment Option, earnings (losses) on deferred amounts will accrue at a rate that tracks the performance of our common stock, including reinvestment of dividends. Under the DMICP Interest Investment Option, earnings accrue at a rate equivalent to the then published rate for computing the present value of future benefits under Cost Accounting Standards 415, Deferred Compensation (CAS 415 rate). The Interest Investment Option was closed to new deferrals and transfers from other investment options effective July 1, 2009, however, as was the case for 2018 and 2019, minimal above-market amounts are reported for 2020 for the pre-July 1, 2009 deferrals. Amounts credited to the Stock Investment Option may not be reallocated to other options. In addition, Stock Investment Option deferrals will be paid in shares of our common stock upon distribution. The DMICP provides for payment in January or July following termination of employment in a lump sum or up to 25 annual installments at the NEO’s election. All amounts accumulated under the DMICP must be paid in a lump sum within 15 days following a change in control.
This table reports compensation earned by the NEOs and deferred under NQSSP, NCAP and DMICP. The NQSSP is a nonqualified defined contribution plan with a match on a portion of the salary deferral. The NCAP is a nonqualified defined contribution excess plan with Corporation contributions. The DMICP is a nonqualified deferred compensation plan through which participants may defer their annual incentive bonus paid under the MICP or the cash-based LTIP received as part of their long-term incentive award opportunity.

The following table quantifies the payments under our executive compensation programs in RSU, LTIP and PSU awards and the lump sum payable under the Supplemental Pension that would be made for each NEO assuming a termination event occurred on December 31, 2020. Payments under other plans do not change as a result of the termination event, and quantification of those payments is found elsewhere in this Proxy Statement; benefits under plans available generally to salaried employees also are not included. The table shows amounts that would actually be paid on or shortly after December 31, 2020 on account of the trigger event. Amounts that are contingent upon future performance, continued vesting or already earned as of December 31, 2020 are described and quantified in the footnotes following the table. Award agreements for the NEOs contain clawback provisions and post-employment restrictive covenants. To receive a supplemental severance benefit or favorable vesting of 2020-22 RSU, LTIP and PSU awards on layoff, an executive must execute a release of claims and, for the supplemental severance benefit, an agreement containing two-year post-employment non-compete and non-solicitation covenants.

Termination/Resignation
(1)    Resignation by executives who are eligible for retirement, for purposes of this table, is treated as retirement. All NEOs, except Mr. Taiclet and Mr. St. John, were eligible for retirement as of December 31, 2020.
www.lockheedmartin.com2021 Proxy Statement

Executive Compensation
Supplemental Pension
(2)     The NEOs would not receive any enhancement to their Supplemental Pension in connection with any termination events or a change in control as of December 31, 2020, and payments under the Supplemental Pension would be payable to such NEOs in accordance with their individual elections, except in the case of a change in control. The Supplemental Pension lump sum value was calculated as the unreduced benefit at age 60 (or the NEO's actual age as of December 31, 2020, if greater) using plan assumptions. Payments under the Supplemental Pension do not commence prior to age 55, except in the case of a change in control; thus Mr. St. John is the only NEO who would experience an accelerated SERP payment in the case of a change in control as of December 31, 2020. The Supplemental Pension assumptions in effect for December 31, 2020, are a 4.00 percent discount rate (1.00 percent for benefits earned prior to 2005) and the mortality tables applicable to lump sum distributions for qualified plans under section 417(e) of the Internal Revenue Code (except the 1983 Group Annuity Mortality with sex distinction is used for benefits accrued prior to 2005, and this table is used for benefits accrued after 2004 if the resulting benefit is larger). All forms of payment, whether lump sum or annuities, are calculated using the plan assumptions to be actuarially equivalent, so there are no incremental benefits associated with any of the events or payment form. The Supplemental Pension assumptions are set forth in the plan document and are different than the assumptions used to calculate the accrued benefit reported in the “2020 Pension Benefits” or “Summary Compensation” tables or for financial reporting.
Long-Term Incentive Performance Awards
(3)    The table shows an amount payable in the event of a change in control trigger event for the 2019-2021 and 2020-2022 LTIP performance periods. For a trigger event based upon death, disability, retirement (or resignation after satisfying the requirements for retirement), layoff or divestiture on December 31, 2020, amounts (if any) for the 2019-2021 and 2020-2022 LTIP performance periods would not be payable until after the end of the performance period. The estimated prorated amounts payable for the 2019-2021 performance cycle based on performance through December 31, 2020 are: Ms. Hewson: $3,695,558; Mr. Possenriede: $1,162,939; Mr. St. John: $1,014,341; Mr. Ambrose: $1,014,341; and Ms. Evans: $1,014,341. The estimated prorated amounts payable for the 2020-2022 performance cycle based on performance through December 31, 2020 are: Mr. Taiclet: $1,207,564; Ms. Hewson: $1,293,819; Mr. Possenriede: $401,084; Mr. St. John: $401,083; Mr. Ambrose: $345,018; and Ms. Evans: $388,145. The table does not include amounts for the 2018-2020 performance cycle as these amounts are reported in the "Summary Compensation Table" (see notes to column (g)).
Restricted Stock Units
(4)    All 2018, 2019 and 2020 RSUs other than Mr. Taiclet's equity replacement award would continue to vest for retirement or layoff occurring on December 31, 2020, and would not become payable until February 2021, February 2022 and February 2023, respectively, and are not included in the table. If Mr. Taiclet retired or resigned as of December 31, 2020, his equity replacement award would be forfeited and, therefore is not included in the table. In addition, in the event of his layoff as of December 31, 2020, 7,689 RSUs of his unvested equity replacement award would immediately vest and the remainder would be forfeited. For a change in control (assuming satisfaction of the double trigger), death, disability, divestiture or, for Mr. Taiclet only, layoff, the reported value of the RSUs was based upon the closing price of our stock on December 31, 2020 ($354.98) plus deferred dividend equivalents that accrued. The amounts for retirement or layoff on December 31, 2020 are not payable until the end of the respective vesting periods (February 2021, February 2022 and February 2023 for the 2018, 2019 and 2020 RSUs, respectively) but would have the same value on December 31, 2020 as the amounts shown for immediate payment on account of death, disability and divestiture. If a NEO is retirement-eligible, then in the case of a divestiture occurring on December 31, 2020, the RSUs will continue to vest and are treated as a retirement.
Performance Stock Units
(5)    The table shows an amount payable in the event of a change in control trigger event for the 2018-2020, 2019-2021 and 2020-2022 performance periods. The amount shown for the PSUs upon a change in control is the target level of the shares valued using the closing price of our stock on December 31, 2020 ($354.98) plus deferred dividend equivalents that accrued. The table assumes the double trigger occurred. For a trigger event based upon death, disability, retirement (or resignation after satisfying the requirements for retirement), layoff or divestiture on December 31, 2020, amounts (if any) for the 2018-2020 and 2019-2021 and 2020-2022 PSU performance periods would be paid on a prorated basis following the end of the applicable performance period. The payments estimated to be paid on a non-prorated basis following the end of the performance cycle using the December 31, 2020 stock price are reported for the 2018-2020 PSU performance cycle in column (h) of the "Outstanding Equity Awards at 2020 Fiscal Year-End Table" and for 2019-2021 and 2020-2022 in column (j) of that table. The prorated amounts for a trigger event occurring on December 31, 2020 plus deferred dividend equivalents that accrued are for each cycle: (i) 2018-2020 cycle: Ms. Hewson: $11,547,255; Mr. Possenriede: $143,624; Mr. St. John: $3,398,858; Mr. Ambrose: $3,398,858; and Ms. Evans: $181,059; and (ii) 2019-2021 cycle: Ms. Hewson: $10,539,101; Mr. Possenriede: $3,317,671; Mr. St. John: $2,893,431; Mr. Ambrose: $2,893,431; and Ms. Evans: $2,893,431; and (iii) 2020-2022 cycle: Mr. Taiclet: $1,417,961; Ms. Hewson: $2,587,020; Mr. Possenriede: $802,151; Mr. St. John: $791,730; Mr. Ambrose: $690,164; and Ms. Evans: $776,251. The prorated amounts are based on the stock price and estimated performance as of December 31, 2020.
Executive Severance
(6)    The total amounts projected for severance payments due to layoff are based on the plan (as amended) approved by the Board in 2008. It includes payment for one year of salary (2.99 years for Mr. Taiclet) and one year of target annual incentive (2.99 for Mr. Taiclet), estimated costs for benefits continuation for one year, outplacement services and relocation assistance (if required under the plan terms).

Executive Compensation
CEO Pay Ratio
As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, the Corporation must annually disclose in its proxy statement the median of the annual total compensation of all of its employees (excluding the CEO), the annual total compensation of its CEO, and the ratio of the CEO compensation to the employee median compensation. The ratio of CEO pay to the pay of the Corporation’s median employee for fiscal year 2020 is 185 to one.
Lockheed Martin employs approximately 114,000 employees that are, in large part, highly-skilled professionals located primarily in the United States, but also represented in numerous other countries. For purposes of the fiscal year 2020 CEO pay ratio set forth above, we used the same median employee identified with respect to our fiscal year 2018 and 2019 CEO pay ratio, because there has not been a change in our employee population or employee compensation arrangements that we believe would significantly change the pay ratio disclosure.
The median employee was determined by calculating the total annual cash compensation (base salary plus annual incentive) of all employees except the CEO as of December 31, 2018, and then sorting those employees from highest to lowest; and determining the median employee from that list.
The total compensation for our CEO for fiscal year 2020 as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table (SCT) on page 58 was $23,360,369. For purposes of the CEO pay ratio, however, we have annualized our CEO's salary and certain perquisites since he only served a portion of the year as CEO (his total annualized compensation was $24,518,639). We did not annualize his annual incentive because a part of his one-time equity replacement award was intended to make him whole for the portion of the annual incentive he forfeited from his prior employer. We also did not annualize his long-term incentive award opportunity or his equity replacement grant because they represented awards that were independent of the amount of time served as CEO during the year. Finally, we have excluded the director compensation he received in 2020 prior to becoming CEO as not being representative of his CEO compensation.

All Other Compensation$1,310,589Annualized certain compensation and perquisites for which amounts would have been incurred if Mr. Taiclet had been serving as CEO the entire year; excluded non-employee cash director fees Mr. Taiclet received in 2020 prior to becoming CEO because his base CEO salary is annualized
Total$24,518,639
The total annual compensation for the median employee for fiscal year 2020 was $132,824, encompassing base salary, overtime, incentives/recognition awards, change in pension value and Corporation contributions to defined contribution plans. The annual total compensation of the median employee was determined in the same manner as the total compensation reported for our CEO in the summary compensation table (without the annualization adjustments disclosed above).

Director Compensation
Annual Benchmarking
Director compensation is an important tool used to attract and retain qualified directors and to address the time, effort, expertise and accountability required of active Board membership. The Governance Committee annually reviews publicly available data for the companies in the comparator group we use for benchmarking executive compensation (listed on page 45) and makes recommendations to the Board regarding compensation for non-employee directors. Mr. Taiclet received compensation for his service on the Board until his commencement of service as President and CEO on June 15, 2020, and his annual director equity retainer was forfeited upon commencement of his employment with the Corporation. Although the Governance Committee reviews director compensation annually, it has been the practice of the Governance Committee to recommend changes no more frequently than every two years.
As director compensation for other comparator companies continues to increase during the two-year cycle, the Corporation’s position relative to the median for director compensation changes. For this reason, the Committee sets director compensation above the median with the expectation that compensation will decline relative to the median over the two-year cycle and may be below the median by the end of the two-year period. In 2020, Meridian, acting as independent compensation consultant to the Governance Committee, assisted in its review of director compensation and best practices in director compensation design. Based upon that review, the Board did not make any changes to directors' compensation for 2021.

Equity Compensation
The annual equity retainer is paid in stock units under the Lockheed Martin Corporation Amended and Restated Directors Equity Plan (Directors Equity Plan). Except in certain circumstances, stock units vest 50 percent on June 30 and 50 percent on December 31 following the grant date. Upon a change in control or a director’s retirement, death, or disability, the director’s stock units become fully vested. Upon a director’s termination of service from our Board, we distribute the vested stock units, at the director’s election, in whole shares of stock or in cash, in a lump sum or in annual installments over a period of up to 20 years. Prior to distribution, a director has no voting, dividend or other rights with respect to the stock units held under the Directors Equity Plan, but is credited with additional stock units representing dividend equivalents (converted to stock units based on the closing price of our stock on the dividend payment dates). The Directors Equity Plan provides that a director eligible for retirement at the next annual meeting receives a prorated grant (one-third) for the four months of service prior to the annual meeting.
Consistent with the terms of the Directors Equity Plan, a director who has satisfied the Board’s stock ownership guidelines may elect to have vested stock units awarded on or after January 1, 2018 (together with any dividend equivalents thereon) paid in a lump sum on the first business day of April following vesting of the award rather than following termination of Board service. Any director who has not elected early payments or has not satisfied the stock ownership guidelines will continue to be paid along with any accumulated dividend equivalents upon termination or retirement from the Board.
Although the Directors Equity Plan authorizes the grant of stock units or stock options, in June 2014, the Board approved a resolution to the effect that each non-employee director would elect to receive the equity portion of the retainer in the form of stock units for each year beginning with 2015 and would not elect options to purchase shares unless the Board resolution is further amended or revoked.

Director Compensation
Deferred Compensation
The Lockheed Martin Corporation Directors Deferred Compensation Plan (Directors Deferred Compensation Plan) provides non-employee directors the opportunity to defer up to 100 percent of the cash portion of their fees. At the director's election, deferred amounts track the performance of: (i) the investment options available under the employee deferred compensation plans; or (ii) our common stock (with dividends reinvested). Deferred amounts are distributed in a lump sum or in up to 15 annual installments commencing at a time designated by the director following termination.
Director Stock Ownership Guidelines
To align their interests with the long-term interests of our stockholders, we expect our directors to maintain an ownership interest in the Corporation. Under our stock ownership guidelines for directors, non-employee directors have five years from the time they join the Board to achieve stock ownership levels (common stock or stock units) equivalent to five times the annual cash retainer. Each non-employee director has exceeded the stock ownership guidelines, except for Mr. Dunford, Mr. Johnson, Ms. Hollub and Ms. Reed-Klages (who joined the Board within the past three years). Mr. Taiclet is subject to the Stock Ownership Requirements for Key Employees as described on page 56.
2020 Director Compensation Table
The following table provides information on the compensation of our directors for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. Ms. Hewson did not receive separate compensation for service as a director of the Corporation during 2020. Mr. Taiclet received compensation for service as a director of the Corporation until he became President and Chief Executive Officer on June 15, 2020. Mr. Taiclet's 2020 director compensation is reported in the Summary Compensation Table, Stock Awards column (e) and All Other Compensation column (i), on page 58.

Proposal
4
Stockholder Proposal to Adopt Stockholder Action by Written Consent
https://cdn.kscope.io/6fc0258ee08fe7d9135f6e9b0c2b0f4e-image1502.jpg
•    Stockholders have rejected substantially similar proposals from the same proponent six times previously, including last year.
•    Stockholders already have the right to call a special meeting at any time.
•    Strong existing corporate governance policies provide stockholders multiple means to express their views and ensure Board accountability.
The Board unanimously recommends that you vote AGAINST Proposal 4.
Mr. John Chevedden has informed us that he intends to introduce the proposal set forth below at the Annual Meeting.
Beginning of Stockholder Proposal—Text and Graphic are Reprinted from the Stockholder Submission:
Proposal 4 — Shareholder Right to Act by Written Consent
Shareholders request that our board of directors undertake such steps as may be necessary to permit written consent by shareholders entitled to cast the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize the action at a meeting at which all shareholders entitled to vote thereon were present and voting. This includes shareholder ability to initiate any appropriate topic for written consent.
Taking action by written consent in place of a meeting is a means shareholders can use to raise important matters outside the normal annual meeting cycle like the election of a new director.
It is also more important than ever to be able to replace a director through written consent because it is now almost impossible to remove a Lockheed Martin director otherwise because a director can be removed only for cause. Removal only for cause is an euphemistic way to say that a director has near immunity to being removed.
This proposal topic won outstanding 47% support at the 2020 Lockheed Martin annual meeting. And this was before the shareholder right to call a special in-person shareholder meeting was essentially eliminated by the 2020 pandemic. Plus a 2020 LMT bylaw change appears to mean that shareholders may now only get 10-days notice of a shareholder meeting.
Also the deliberations of the Lockheed Martin Board on this topic in 2020, with Mr. Daniel Akerson as Governance Committee Chairman, completely overlooked the safeguards that can be built into granting shareholders a right to act by written consent.
Plus the 2020 shareholder proposal on this topic could not foresee that the pandemic would severely restrict a future special shareholder meeting which could simply be a bare bones online meeting with restricted interaction. And the Governance Committee under Mr. Akerson rested a lot of its argument on the outdated notion of what could be accomplished at a special shareholder meeting.
The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (BK) said it adopted written consent in 2019 after 45%-support (2% less than the 2020 LMT vote) for a written consent shareholder proposal. And this was a year before the pandemic put an end to in-person shareholder meetings — perhaps forever. It is so much easier for management to conduct an online shareholder meeting that management is now spoiled and will never want to return to an in-person shareholder meeting.
Shareholders are also severely restricted in making their views known at online shareholder meetings because all challenging questions and comments can be screened out at an online meeting.
For instance Goodyear management hit the mute button right in the middle of a formal shareholder proposal presentation at its 2020 shareholder meeting to bar constructive criticism.
Shareholders now need to have the option more than ever to take action outside of a shareholder meeting since online shareholder meetings are shareholder engagement wasteland.
Please vote yes:

Proposal 4: Stockholder Proposal to Adopt Stockholder Action by Written Consent
Board of Directors Statement in Opposition to Proposal 4
The Board recommends that stockholders vote AGAINST this proposal because the Board views the requested change as not in the best interests of the stockholders and unnecessary given the Corporation’s strong corporate governance practices and Board accountability to stockholders, as described below.
•    Substantially identical proposals were rejected by the Corporation’s stockholders in 2020, 2018, 2015, 2014, 2013 and 2011. This will be the seventh time in the past ten years that the same proponent has proposed a substantially similar proposal and each previous time stockholders have rejected such a proposal. The Board does not believe any material developments have occurred since the last time stockholders rejected such a proposal that should change stockholders’ views on this proposal.
•    Our stockholders already have the right to call a special meeting at any time. Any stockholder who individually owns 10 percent, or stockholders who in the aggregate own 25 percent, of our outstanding common stock may demand the calling of a special meeting to consider any business properly before the stockholders. This threshold is half (or less) of what would be necessary to act by written consent under the proposal. The rights requested by the proposal would be duplicative of this existing stockholder right to call a special meeting, but without important protections and advantages afforded by the stockholder meeting process. See below and “Stockholder Right to Call Special Meeting” on page 32.
•    The Board believes allowing stockholders to act by written consent circumvents the deliberative stockholder meeting process. Implementation of this proposal could result in an unfair and unsound process because it allows stockholders to take action without complying with the procedural safeguards inherent in the stockholder meeting process. For example, action by written consent does not require that all stockholders receive notice of the written consent proposal, be given adequate time to review the subject matter of the proposal or be given the opportunity to consider alternative views on the proposal. The Board believes that requiring stockholder business be acted upon at a meeting is an inherently more structured, democratic and open process and helps to ensure the accuracy and completeness of information presented to all stockholders for their consideration.
•    Written consent provides a greater opportunity for abuse. The proposal does not impose any ownership requirements on the stockholders soliciting written consent and, as a result, it could be initiated by a single stockholder holding a very small number of shares. It may encourage short-term stock ownership manipulation by a small group of investors (including those who accumulate a short-term voting position through borrowed shares) to advance a special agenda that may be contrary to the long-term best interests of the Corporation and its stockholders. The proposal may also create confusion because multiple groups of stockholders would be able to solicit written consents simultaneously, some of which may be duplicative or contradictory.
•    We have a long-standing commitment to sound corporate governance practices and an active investor engagement program to ensure Board accountability. At the direction of the Board, the Corporation engages directly with its stockholders throughout the year to seek their views on an array of issues, including corporate governance matters. In addition to the then-existing right to call a special meeting, the Board proactively adopted proxy access in 2016, which gives stockholders the right to include director nominations in the Corporation's proxy statement for the annual meeting, and in 2017 the Board proactively amended the Corporation's Bylaws to provide that the stockholders have the power to amend the Corporation's Bylaws. Our directors also remain accountable to our stockholders through annual elections by our stockholders with a majority voting standard and a resignation policy for directors who do not receive a majority of votes cast in an uncontested election. Our Board has demonstrated its commitment to Board refreshment and to the election of highly qualified independent directors who bring diverse perspectives to our Board with skills that are aligned with our long-term business strategy. Over the past five years, six new independent directors have been elected to the Board. In 2019, the Board also elected a new independent Lead Director.
The Board will continue to review corporate governance best practices and adopt those practices that it believes, in light of the circumstances, serve the best interests of the Corporation and our stockholders.

Stockholder Proposal to Issue a Report on Human Rights Due Diligence
https://cdn.kscope.io/6fc0258ee08fe7d9135f6e9b0c2b0f4e-image1502.jpg
The Corporation’s existing policies and practices reflect our strong commitment to ethical business practices and respect for human rights
Sales of our products and services to the U.S. and its allies promote global security and are done in compliance with applicable laws
Preparing the report would produce little or no value to stockholders but would impose an unnecessary burden and expense on our company
The Board unanimously recommends that you vote AGAINST Proposal 5.
We have been informed that the Sisters of Charity of Saint Elizabeth, The Sisters of St. Francis of Philadelphia and the School Sisters of Notre Dame Cooperative Investment Fund intend to introduce the proposal set forth below at the Annual Meeting.
Beginning of Stockholder Proposal—Text and Footnotes are Reprinted from the Stockholder Submission:
Whereas: Lockheed Martin is the world’s largest defense contractor and is exposed to significant actual and potential adverse human rights impacts resulting from the use of its weapons and defense technologies. Human rights risks include the rights to life, liberty and personal security, privacy, non-discrimination, and peaceful assembly and association. The UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs), unanimously endorsed by the UN Human Rights Council in June 2011, constitute the global authoritative framework outlining the roles and responsibilities of states and companies with respect to human rights. While regulation of the international arms trade falls under the state duty to protect human rights, the UNGPs define clear expectations for defense companies to respect human rights in their operations and supply chains, and address risks linked to use of products. A 2019 Amnesty International report found that Lockheed Martin lacks human rights due diligence procedures to effectively identify, assess, prevent, mitigate, and remediate its human rights impacts.1
Prominent human rights organizations have recorded indiscriminatory use of Lockheed Martin weaponry against civilians consistently over time.2 Lockheed Martin has exported military goods to at least 12 states which are engaged in armed conflict, have a record of human rights violations, or are at risk of corruption and fragility, including Saudi Arabia, Israel, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Reports have linked Lockheed Martin weaponry to war crimes and violations of international humanitarian law in Yemen, including the widely condemned attack on a school bus in 2018 that resulted in the deaths of dozens of children.3 The company is set to play a central role in the sale of F-35 fighter jets to the UAE, as part of the country’s recent normalization agreement with Israel.4
The company is connected to $40 billion in contracts related to nuclear weapons.5 The Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, which enters into force in 2021, may require Lockheed Martin to demonstrate that the company is not conducting prohibited activities in jurisdictions that ratified the Treaty.
Furthermore, the company faces multiple lawsuits for toxic pollutant contamination from a Florida facility that has resulted in brain lesions, multiple sclerosis, cancer, and birth defects, as well as litigation linked to a uranium facility.
In spite of its existing Codes, there is no evidence of effective implementation across business functions.6 Disclosure on governance and embedding of the commitment to respect human rights throughout the business is absent. Failure to respect human rights and increase due diligence in high risk business areas exposes the company and its investors to financial, legal, regulatory, reputational, and human capital management risks.
Resolved: Shareholders request the Board of Directors prepare a report, at reasonable cost and omitting proprietary information, on Lockheed Martin’s human rights due diligence process to identify, assess, prevent, mitigate, and remedy actual and potential human rights impacts associated with high-risk products and services, including those in conflict-affected areas.

Proposal 5: Stockholder Proposal to Issue a Report on Human Rights Due Diligence
Board of Directors Statement in Opposition to Proposal 5
The Board has considered this proposal and recommends that stockholders vote AGAINST this proposal for the following reasons:
The Board believes the Corporation’s existing policies and practices appropriately and adequately address the concerns raised in this proposal. Our policies, procedures, and practices reflect our strong commitment to ethical business practices and respect for human rights. As outlined in our Good Corporate Citizenship and Respect for Human Rights Policy (Human Rights Policy), at Lockheed Martin, we believe that respect for human rights is an essential element of being a good corporate citizen. Our commitment to respect human rights underlies Setting the Standard, the Lockheed Martin Code of Ethics and Business Conduct (Code of Conduct), and our stated values—Do What’s Right, Respect Others, and Perform with Excellence. This commitment applies to all employees, the Board, and others who represent or act for us. This policy outlines human rights commitments that include fair employment practices and wages, and the prohibition of harassment, discrimination, child or forced labor and human trafficking. Our commitment to good corporate citizenship and human rights is also reinforced through our Supplier Code of Conduct, which sets the expectation that our suppliers will honor the same values we do. In addition, on September 1, 2020, we adopted a corporate policy on the ethical development of use of artificial intelligence (AI) that outlines our principles and concepts for the development, procurement, deployment or internal use of AI systems consistent with our Code of Conduct, including consideration of human rights, with a focus on ensuring that we remain responsible, we take deliberate steps to minimize unintended bias, capabilities are traceable with transparent and auditable methodologies, capabilities are reliable with explicit, well-defined uses, and are able to detect and avoid unintended consequences. We make our Human Rights Policy, Code of Conduct and Supplier Code of Conduct publicly available on our website. Please see the Human Rights section of the proxy statement on page 27 for a description of our human rights policy and principles, due diligence approach and Board oversight.
Our military sales activities promote global security and are regulated by the U.S. Government and reviewed and approved by the Executive Branch with oversight from Congress to ensure they support U.S. national security and foreign policy objectives, including consideration of whether any arms transfer contributes to the risk of human rights abuses. International sales of our defense products and services occur on a government-to-government basis via foreign military sales (FMS) programs, and by direct commercial sales from Lockheed Martin to our customers. Both forms of transactions are authorized by the Arms Export Control Act and support U.S. foreign policy objectives. The Defense Security Cooperation Agency manages FMS sales for the U.S. Department of Defense. These activities are regulated by the U.S. government and are reviewed and approved by the Executive Branch and Congress to ensure that they support U.S. national security and foreign policy objectives and that arms are not redirected and used for unauthorized purposes. The applicable regulatory processes require these branches of government to consider the risk that an arms transfer contributes to abuses of human rights. We strictly adhere to U.S. government oversight and policy in all matters relating to international sales and specifically to the transfer of products and technologies to foreign entities, and have a robust trade compliance program to ensure that all sales of our products are conducted in accordance not only with international trade laws and regulations of the U.S. but also of each foreign country in which we operate. All of our sales are subject to our Code of Conduct and all applicable U.S. and foreign laws and regulations, including those related to anti-corruption, import-export control, taxation, repatriation of earnings, exchange controls and the anti-boycott provisions of the U.S. Export Controls Reform Act of 2018.
Preparing the report called for by the stockholder proposal would produce little or no benefit to our stockholders but would impose unnecessary burden and expense on the Corporation. We believe the report called for by the stockholder proposal is unnecessary in light of our existing human rights policies and that the concerns raised by the proposal would be more appropriately directed to public officials who determine foreign policy rather than being channeled through the federal proxy rules. A formal report as contemplated by the proposal would be costly and time consuming to produce and the proposal relates to the Corporation’s ordinary business operations, which is the proper purview of management as overseen by the Board.
The Board remains committed to human rights and ensuring that Lockheed Martin continues to adhere to the high standard for human rights to which it holds itself. We do not believe the report called for by the stockholder proposal would enhance those objectives and, for the reasons set forth above, we do not believe the preparation of a report is in the best interests of the stockholders.

Stockholders who hold shares through a Lockheed Martin benefit plan who join the Annual Meeting by using the unique control number received on their voting instruction form will be able to ask questions but not vote during the meeting.

Annual Meeting Questions and Answers
Can I change my proxy vote?
Yes. If you are a registered stockholder, you can change your proxy vote or revoke your proxy at any time before the Annual Meeting by:
returning a signed proxy card with a later date;
authorizing a new vote electronically through the Internet or by telephone;
delivering a written revocation of your proxy to Lockheed Martin Corporation, Attention: Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, 6801 Rockledge Drive, Bethesda, MD 20817, before your original proxy is voted at the Annual Meeting; or
voting electronically during the Annual Meeting.
If you are a beneficial owner of shares, you can submit new voting instructions by contacting your broker, bank or other nominee and may be able to submit a vote at the Annual Meeting depending on what your broker, bank or other nominee informs you.
What if I return my proxy card but do not provide voting instructions?
Proxies that are signed and returned but do not contain voting instructions will be voted:
FOR the election of the eleven director-nominees listed in this proxy statement (Proposal 1);
FOR the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as our independent auditors for the 2021 fiscal year (Proposal 2);
FOR the advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers (Say-on-Pay) (Proposal 3);
AGAINST the stockholder proposal to adopt stockholder action by written consent (Proposal 4);
AGAINST the stockholder proposal to issue a report on human rights due diligence (Proposal 5); and
In the best judgment of the named proxy holders if any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting.
How do I vote if I participate in one of the Corporation’s 401(k) or defined contribution plans?
As a participant in one of our employee 401(k) or defined contribution plans, you can direct the plan trustees how to vote shares allocated to your account(s) on a voting direction card, electronically through the Internet or by telephone. Most active employees who participate in these benefit plans will receive an email notification announcing Internet availability of the Proxy Materials and how to submit voting directions.
If you do not provide timely directions to the plan trustee, shares allocated to your account(s) will be voted by the plan trustee depending on the terms of your plan or other legal requirements.
Plan participants may attend the virtual Annual Meeting and ask questions, but may not vote plan shares at the Annual Meeting. If you wish to vote, whether you plan to attend the virtual Annual Meeting or not, you should direct the trustee of your plan(s) how you wish to vote your plan shares no later than 11:59 p.m., EDT, on April 19, 2021.
How many shares must be present to hold the Annual Meeting?
In order for us to lawfully conduct business at our Annual Meeting, a majority of the shares outstanding and entitled to vote as of the Record Date, must be present virtually or by proxy. This is referred to as a quorum. Your shares are counted as present at the Annual Meeting if you attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person or abstain from voting, or if you properly return a proxy by Internet, by telephone or by mail in advance of the Annual Meeting and do not revoke the proxy.
Will my shares be voted if I don’t provide my proxy or instruction card?
Registered Stockholders
If your shares are registered in your name, your shares will not be voted unless you provide a proxy by Internet in advance of the Annual Meeting, by telephone, by mail, or vote electronically during the Annual Meeting.

Annual Meeting Questions and Answers
Plan Participants
If you are a participant in one of our employee 401(k) or defined contribution plans and you do not provide timely directions to the plan trustee, shares allocated to your account(s) will be voted by the plan trustee depending on the terms of your plan and other legal requirements.
Beneficial Owners
If you hold shares through an account with a broker and you do not provide voting instructions, under NYSE rules, your broker may vote your shares on routine matters only. The ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP (Proposal 2) is considered a routine matter, and your broker can therefore vote your shares on that Proposal even if you do not provide voting instructions. Proposals 1, 3, 4, and 5 are not considered routine matters, and your broker cannot vote your shares on those Proposals unless you provide voting instructions. Votes withheld by brokers in the absence of voting instructions from a beneficial owner are referred to as “broker non-votes.”
Multiple Forms of Ownership
The Corporation cannot provide a single proxy or instruction card for stockholders who own shares in multiple forms as registered stockholders, plan participants or beneficial owners. As a result, if your shares are held in multiple types of accounts, you must submit your votes for each type of account in accordance with the instructions you receive for that account.
What is the vote required for each proposal?
For Proposal 1, the votes that stockholders cast “FOR” a director-nominee must exceed the votes that stockholders cast “AGAINST” a director-nominee to approve the election of each director-nominee. For each of Proposals 2, 3, 4 and 5 the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast is required to approve the proposal.
“Votes cast” excludes broker non-votes and excludes abstentions. Proposals 2, 3, 4 and 5 are advisory and non-binding. However, the Board will review the voting results on these proposals and take the results into account when making future decisions regarding these matters.
What is the effect of an abstention?
A stockholder who abstains on some or all matters is considered present for purposes of determining if a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting, but an abstention is not counted as a vote cast under Maryland law. Accordingly, an abstention has no effect on the vote on any proposal.
What is the effect of a broker non-vote?
If a broker casts a vote on Proposal 2 (Ratification of Auditors), the vote will be included in determining whether a quorum exists for holding the meeting. The broker does not have authority to vote on the other proposals absent directions from the beneficial owner.
As a result, if the beneficial owner does not vote on Proposals 1, 3, 4, or 5 so that there is a “broker non-vote” on those items, the broker non-votes do not count as votes cast for that proposal and have no effect on the proposal. Thus, a broker non-vote on these proposals will not impact our ability to obtain a quorum, will not affect the outcome with respect to the election of directors and will not otherwise affect the outcome of the vote on a proposal that requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the proposal.
Who will count the votes?
Representatives of Computershare will tabulate the votes and act as inspectors of election for the Annual Meeting.
Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?
The preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. The final voting results will be tallied by the inspectors of election and disclosed by the Corporation in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC within four business days following the Annual Meeting.

Annual Meeting Questions and Answers
What is “householding” and how does it affect me?
We have adopted a procedure approved by the SEC called “householding.” Under this procedure, we send only one Annual Report and Proxy Statement to eligible stockholders who share a single address, unless we have received instructions to the contrary from any stockholder at that address. This practice is designed to reduce our printing and postage costs. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to receive separate proxy cards. We do not use householding for any other stockholder mailings, such as dividend checks, Forms 1099 or account statements.
If you are eligible for householding, but received multiple copies of the Annual Report and Proxy Statement and prefer to receive only a single copy of each of these documents for your household, please contact Computershare, Shareholder Relations, P.O. Box 505000, Louisville, KY 40233-5000, or call 1-877-498-8861. If you are a registered stockholder residing at an address with other registered stockholders and wish to receive a separate Annual Report or Proxy Statement at this time or in the future, we will provide you with a separate copy. To obtain this copy, please contact Computershare as indicated above. If you own shares through a broker, bank, or other nominee, you should contact the nominee concerning householding procedures.
Can I receive a copy of the Annual Report?
Yes. We will provide a copy of our Annual Report without charge, upon written request, to any registered or beneficial owner of common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Requests should be made in writing addressed to Investor Relations, Lockheed Martin Corporation, 6801 Rockledge Drive, Bethesda, MD 20817, by calling Lockheed Martin Stockholder Direct at 1-800-568-9758, or by accessing the Corporation’s website at www.lockheedmartin.com/investor.
Can I view the Proxy Statement and Annual Report on the Internet?
Yes. The Proxy Statement and Annual Report are available on the Internet at www.edocumentview.com/LMT. Subject to the “householding” procedures above, all stockholders will receive paper copies of the Proxy Statement, proxy card and Annual Report by mail unless the stockholder has consented to electronic delivery or is an employee with shares allocated in an employee benefit plan. The SEC also maintains a website at www.sec.gov that contains reports, proxy statements, and other information regarding Lockheed Martin.
Can I choose to receive the Proxy Statement and Annual Report on the Internet instead of receiving them by mail?
Yes. If you are a registered stockholder, you can elect to receive future Annual Meeting materials, including Annual Reports and Proxy Statements, on the Internet only and not receive copies in the mail by visiting Shareholder Services at www.lockheedmartin.com/investor and completing the online consent form. Your request for electronic transmission will remain in effect for all future Annual Reports and Proxy Statements, unless withdrawn. Withdrawal procedures also are available on this website. If you are a beneficial owner, contact your broker, bank or other nominee.
Most active employees who participate in the Corporation’s 401(k) and defined contribution plans will receive an email notification announcing Internet availability of the Proxy Materials. A paper copy will not be provided unless requested by the employee following the instruction in the email notification.
Who pays the cost of this proxy solicitation?
The Corporation pays the cost of soliciting proxies on behalf of the Board for the Annual Meeting. We may solicit proxies by Internet, by telephone, by mail or in person. We may make arrangements with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to send Proxy Materials to beneficial owners on our behalf. We reimburse them for their reasonable expenses. We have retained Morrow Sodali LLC, 470 West Avenue, Stamford, CT 06902 to aid in the solicitation of proxies and to verify related records for a fee of $45,000, plus expenses. To the extent necessary to ensure sufficient representation at the Annual Meeting, we may request the return of proxies by mail, express delivery, courier, telephone, Internet or other means. Stockholders are requested to return their proxies without delay.
