Plan Payment Obligations(1)(2)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) The Supplemental Savings Incentive Plan Payment Obligations are unsecured
obligations of Lockheed Martin Corporation (the "Registrant") to pay deferred
compensation in the future in accordance with the Lockheed Martin Global
Telecommunications Supplemental Savings Incentive Plan (the "Plan").
(2) Participants of the Plan may elect to have deferred compensation treated as
if such amount had been used to purchase the Registrant's Common Stock. For
purposes of this Registration Statement, this investment option is referred to
as Reference Units. The Reference Units will accrue earnings (or losses) on
Supplemental Savings Incentive Plan Payment Obligations based on the performance
of the Registrant's Common Stock. No additional consideration will be paid for
the Reference Units.
PART I
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE SECTION 10(a) PROSPECTUS
The documents containing the information specified in Part I of Form S-8
will be sent or given to employees eligible to participate in the Plan as
specified by Rule 428(b)(1) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"). In accordance with the instructions of Part I of Form S-8,
such documents will not be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "Commission") either as part of this Registration Statement or as
prospectuses or prospectus supplements pursuant to Rule 424 of the Securities
Act. These documents and the documents incorporated by reference pursuant to
Item 3 of Part II of this Registration Statement, taken together, constitute a
prospectus that meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act.
PART II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3. Incorporation Of Documents By Reference.
The following documents filed with the Commission are incorporated
herein by reference:
. the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2000; and
. the description of Registrant's common stock, $1.00 par value per
share, contained in Registrant's Registration Statement on Form 8-B,
filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")(as amended on
Form 8-B/A filed on March 9, 1995), and any amendment or report filed
for the purpose of updating such description.
In addition, any and all documents filed by the Registrant pursuant to
Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, subsequent to the date
of this Registration Statement and prior to the withdrawal (if any) of the
Registration Statement shall, to the extent required by law, be deemed to be
incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement and to be a part
hereof.
Item 4. Description of Securities.
Under the Lockheed Martin Global Telecommunications Supplemental Savings
Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), the Registrant will provide certain employees who
are prohibited by Internal Revenue Code rules from fully contributing to the
Lockheed Martin Global Telecommunications Savings Incentive Plan (the "Savings
Plan") due to limitations imposed by the Savings Plan with the opportunity to
defer a specified portion of their compensation. The obligation of the
Registrant to distribute the compensation deferred, as adjusted by earnings or
losses, if any, (the "Supplemental Savings Plan Payment Obligations") will be an
unsecured general obligation of the Registrant to pay the deferred compensation
in the future in accordance with the terms of the Plan, and will rank pari passu
with other unsecured general obligations of the Registrant.
Under the Plan, participants may elect to invest deferred compensation in a
manner such that the amount deferred will be treated as if such amount had been
used to purchase shares of the Registrant's Common Stock. This is, however,
only a bookkeeping entry and not an actual purchase of the Registrant's Common
Stock. For purposes of this Registration Statement, these investments are
referred to as "Reference Units." The value of Reference Units will fluctuate
based on changes in the value of the Registrant's Common Stock. To the extent
that dividends are paid on the Registrant's Common Stock, a like amount will be
added to a participant's account and reinvested in Reference Units. This
right to accrue earnings (or losses) based on the fluctuations in the value of
the Registrant's Common Stock may be deemed to be a "security" under the
Securities Act and, as such, is being registered on this Registration Statement
on Form S-8.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
The Opinion of Counsel as to the legality of the securities being
registered and as to compliance with the requirements of ERISA (constituting
Exhibit 5) have been rendered by counsel who is a full-time employee of the
Registrant. Such counsel is not eligible to participate in the Plan.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Maryland General Corporation Law authorizes Maryland corporations to
limit the liability of directors and officers to the corporation or its
stockholders for money damages, except (a) to the extent that it is proved that
the person actually received an improper benefit or profit in money, property or
services, for the amount of the benefit or profit in money, property or services
actually received, (b) to the extent that a judgment or other final adjudication
adverse to the person is entered in a proceeding based on a finding that the
person's action or failure to act was the result of active and deliberate
dishonesty and was material to the cause of action adjudicated in the proceeding
or (c) in respect of certain other actions not applicable to the Registrant.
Under the Maryland General Corporation Law, unless limited by charter,
indemnification is mandatory if a director or an officer has been successful on
the merits or otherwise in the defense of any proceeding by reason of his or her
service as a director unless such indemnification is not otherwise permitted as
described in the following sentence. Indemnification is permissive unless it is
established that (a) the act or omission of the director was material to the
matter giving rise to the proceeding and was committed in bad faith or was the
result of active and deliberate dishonesty, (b) the director actually received
an improper
2
personal benefit in money, property or services or (c) in the case of any
criminal proceeding, the director had reasonable cause to believe his or her act
or omission was unlawful. In addition to the foregoing, a court of appropriate
jurisdiction may, under certain circumstances, order indemnification if it
determines that the director or officer is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnification in view of all the relevant circumstances, whether or not the
director or officer has met the standards of conduct set forth in the preceding
sentence or has been adjudged liable on the basis that a personal benefit was
improperly received in a proceeding charging improper personal benefit to the
director or officer. If the proceeding was an action by or in the right of the
corporation or involved a determination that the director or officer received an
improper personal benefit, however, no indemnification may be made if the
individual is adjudged liable to the corporation, except to the extent of
expenses approved by a court of competent jurisdiction.
Article XI of the Charter of the Registrant limits the liability of
directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the Maryland General
Corporation Law. Article XI of the Charter of the Registrant also authorizes
the Registrant to adopt bylaws or resolutions to provide for the indemnification
of directors and officers. Article VI of the Bylaws of the Registrant provides
for the indemnification of the Registrant's directors and officers to the
fullest extent permitted by the Maryland General Corporation Law. In addition,
the Registrant's directors and officers are covered by certain insurance
policies maintained by the Registrant.

Item 9. Undertakings.
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most
recent post-effective
3
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate,
represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in
the Registration Statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration
Statement or any material change to such information in the
Registration Statement; provided, however, that paragraphs
(a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the Registration
Statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or
furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (the "Exchange Act") that are incorporated by reference in
the Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from the registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.
(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of
the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to
be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein,
and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the
Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by
the final adjudication of such issue.
