All directors are required to own Company stock in an amount equal to five times the annual cash retainer, with such ownership to be achieved within five years of the later of (i) May 18, 2011 or (ii) the director’s election to the Board. Deferred stock units and Company stock owned outright by the director will count towards this requirement.

Expenses:

Transportation
|

Ordinary and necessary business expenses will be reimbursed to traveling directors after presentation of original receipts to the company. Directors will be reimbursed for round trip first class air travel from the director’s regular place of business or residence. Whenever possible, directors will be transported to board meetings by our own company aircraft. Surface travel will be reimbursed at the current mileage allowance for traveling executives. Currently, that rate is 55 cents per mile, if the director is driving locally. Taxi service will be reimbursed upon presentation of a receipt. Northrop Grumman arranges drivers from an executive security service to transport directors between the airport and the hotel currently in use and Northrop Grumman drivers transport directors from the hotel to the meeting location.
