FORM 10-Q
For the Quarter Ended June 30, 1996

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



1. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of
Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. (the "Corporation") have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to the Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q and to Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The Corporation has
continued to follow the accounting policies set forth in the audited
consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in
the Corporation's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1995, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27,
1996. In the opinion of management, the interim financial information
provided herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations
for the interim periods. The results of operations for the six months
ended June 30, 1996, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
expected for the full year.

The Corporation is a subsidiary of Lockheed Martin Corporation ("Lockheed
Martin") which was formed as a result of a business combination in March
1995 between the Martin Marietta Corporation ("Martin Marietta") and the
Lockheed Corporation. Lockheed Martin, directly and indirectly through a
subsidiary, currently owns approximately 81% of the Corporation's
outstanding Common Stock. However, Lockheed Martin has stated its
intention to dispose of its ownership of the Corporation's Common Stock
in the latter half of 1996 by means of a split-off. The split-off
proposed by Lockheed Martin would be accomplished through an exchange
offering whereby Lockheed Martin stockholders will be given an
opportunity to exchange some or all of their shares of Lockheed Martin
common stock for a certain number of shares of the Corporation's Common
Stock (the "Exchange Offer") held by Lockheed Martin. For a more
detailed discussion of this transaction, see the "Overview" section of
the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations" on page 9. For purposes of these financial
statements and the related notes thereto, all references to Lockheed
Martin are meant to include Martin Marietta Corporation and its
consolidated subsidiaries, except where otherwise specified.

The 8-1/2% Notes were redeemed by the holders upon their maturity on
March 1, 1996. During the period these Notes were outstanding,
Lockheed Martin reimbursed the Corporation for the portion of the
interest in excess of 5% per annum.

In addition to the above stated long-term debt, as of June 30, 1996,
the Corporation had borrowed, from a subsidiary of Lockheed Martin, $23
million under the terms of a credit agreement and $1.5 million under
the terms of a cash management agreement. For financial reporting
purposes, these amounts are classified with affiliates payable in the
accompanying financial statements. The proceeds of these borrowings
were used primarily to help finance the repayment of the 8-1/2 % Notes
and to assist funding the Corporation's working capital requirements
during the first half of 1996. As of August 1, 1996, $12 million was
outstanding under the terms of these agreements.

The Corporation's interest payments were approximately $7.3 million in
1996 and $3.7 million in 1995 for the six months ended June 30.

4. Income Taxes

The Corporation's effective income tax rate for the first six months was
33.9% in 1996 and 35.5% in 1995. The effective rate for the first half
of 1996 was lower than the current federal corporate income tax rate of
35%, due to the effect of several partially offsetting factors. The
Corporation's year-to-date 1996 effective tax rate reflects the effect of
state income taxes which has been more than offset by the favorable
impact of differences in book and tax accounting arising from the
permanent benefits associated with the depletion allowances for mineral
reserves, foreign subsidiaries' operating earnings, and equity earnings
in nonconsolidated investments.

Currently, the results of operations of the Corporation are included in a
consolidated federal income tax return with Lockheed Martin. However,
assuming consummation of the split-off from Lockheed Martin, as discussed
in Note 1 and in the "Overview" section of the "Management's Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" on page 9,
the Corporation will file consolidated federal income tax returns
independently from Lockheed Martin following the consummation date of the
split-off. For years ended prior to January 1, 1995, the Corporation's
results of operations were included in a consolidated federal income tax
return with Martin Marietta Corporation. Income taxes allocable to the
operations of the Corporation are calculated as if it had filed separate
income tax returns for the periods presented herein.

The Corporation's income tax payments were approximately $4.6 million in
1996 and $7.7 million in 1995, for the six months ended June 30.

5. Contingencies

In the opinion of management and counsel, it is unlikely that the outcome
of litigation and other proceedings, including those pertaining to
environmental matters, relating to the Corporation and its subsidiaries,
will have a material adverse effect on the results of the Corporation's
operations or its financial position.

6. Other Matters

In February 1994, the Corporation was authorized by its shareholders and
the Board of Directors to repurchase up to 2,000,000 shares of the
Corporation's Common Stock for issuance under the Corporation's Omnibus
Securities Award Plan. On May 3, 1994, the Board of Directors authorized
the repurchase of an additional 500,000 shares for general corporate
purposes. As of August 1, 1996, there have been 68,200 shares of Common
Stock repurchased by the Corporation under these authorizations.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Second Quarter and Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995

The following discussion and analysis presents management's assessment of
Materials' business environment, factors affecting the results of operations,
liquidity and capital resources as of and for the second quarter ended June 30,
1996. This information should be read in conjunction with the Corporation's
condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto on pages
3 through 8.

OVERVIEW

Materials achieved record quarterly sales and earnings, including earnings
from operations, for the quarter ended June 30, 1996, principally through
continued pricing and profitability improvements, coupled with the positive
impact of its previous acquisition activities. Financial results for the first
half of 1996 yielded earnings from operations of $48.5 million. These operating
earnings were up $2.8 million from the year-earlier period on net sales of
$337.0 million. Comparatively, earnings from operations for the first six
months of 1995 were $45.6 million on net sales of $305.9 million. The
Corporation's net earnings for the six-month period ended June 30, 1996, of
$31.1 million, or $0.68 a share, represent an increase of 10% over net earnings
for the first six months of 1995 of $28.2 million, or $0.61 a share.

On July 26, 1996, the Corporation filed a registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with Lockheed Martin's
intention to distribute all of its shares of the Corporation's Common Stock to
its own stockholders by offering to exchange shares of the Corporation's Common
Stock for each share of Lockheed Martin common stock tendered, subject to
certain conditions (the "Exchange Offer"). If Lockheed Martin completes the
Exchange Offer and if a sufficient number of shares of Lockheed Martin common
stock are not exchanged for the Corporation's Common Stock such that Lockheed
Martin continues to own shares of the Corporation's Common Stock, Lockheed
Martin has announced that it will "spin-off" as soon as practicable the
remaining shares of the Corporation's Common Stock it owns as a pro rata
distribution to the holders of Lockheed Martin common stock remaining after
consummation of the Exchange Offer ( the "Spin-Off" and, together with the
Exchange Offer, the "Transaction").

As a result of the Transaction, all of Lockheed Martin's approximately 81%
interest in the Corporation's Common Stock will be exchanged with Lockheed
Martin stockholders who participate in the Exchange Offer or, if applicable,
distributed to the Lockheed Martin stockholders in the Spin-Off. Neither
consummation of the Exchange Offer nor effectuation of the Spin-Off will impact
the Corporation's financial position or its results of operations as of the
consummation date of the

Transaction and for the period then ended. For additional discussion in
connection with the Transaction, see "Other Matters" on page 19.

Materials continues to maintain a level of capital resources which
management believes is adequate to operate, compete and grow in an increasingly
challenging and competitive environment. At June 30, 1996, total shareholders'
equity reached $444.6 million, and the Corporation's ratio of debt to total
capitalization was 25%, compared with a debt-to-capitalization ratio of 35% at
year-end 1995. Total debt at year-end reflected a temporary increase in
long-term debt associated with the December 1995 sale of the Corporation's $125
million 7% Debentures. The proceeds from the sale of these Debentures were
used ultimately to repay the $100 million aggregate principal amount of the
Corporation's 8 1/2% Notes upon their maturity on March 1, 1996.

The management of Materials continues to remain committed to achieving its
current and long-term strategic and financial goals, which include a plan for
disciplined growth through acquisitions in the Corporation's core businesses
and an ongoing program for development of new aggregates quarry locations,
known as greensiting.

BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT

Materials conducts its operations through two divisions: Aggregates and
Magnesia Specialties. The Aggregates division is the second largest producer
of construction aggregates in the United States, based on tons shipped, and its
products are used primarily for construction of highways and other
infrastructure projects and in commercial and residential construction. The
Magnesia Specialties division sells a majority of its products to customers in
the steel industry, and also serves customers in other industrial, agricultural
and environmental markets.

The Corporation's aggregates business is characterized by a high level of
dependence upon private and public sector construction spending and a
sensitivity to national, as well as regional and local, economic cycles.
Historically, these characteristics have made the construction aggregates
industry highly cyclical. In addition, the aggregates business is seasonal,
due primarily to the effect of weather conditions on construction activity in
the markets served.

The public sector portion of construction spending levels, which accounts
for approximately one-half of the division's annual shipments, has been
historically more stable than the levels of construction spending for the
commercial and residential portions. Consequently, management believes that
the division's broad mix of public sector construction activity and its
emphasis on infrastructure-related projects lessen somewhat the Corporation's
exposure to fluctuations in commercial and residential spending levels. Over
time, these spending levels have been sensitive primarily to the effects of
changes in regional and local economics, as well as to fluctuations in interest
rates.

The current federal highway program expires September 30, 1997. However,
management expects a new federal program will be enacted without interruption,
with construction spending to continue at levels comparable with current
spending levels. In addition, it is expected that

FORM 10-Q
For the Quarter Ended June 30, 1996

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(Continued)

Second Quarter and Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995


construction spending associated with the state- and local-level highway
programs in markets in which the Corporation does business will continue at
levels comparable to current spending levels. If construction spending
reductions occur in state- and local-level highway programs, or if, as part of
the federal budget deliberations, construction spending reductions occur in the
current or a successor federal highway program, the division's operations could
be adversely affected, if such reductions occur within the division's
respective markets. However, it should be noted that the Highway Trust Fund
and a significant portion of the state and local highway programs within the
Corporation's markets are funded from sources such as dedicated portions of
gasoline tax revenues, which management believes should not be adversely
affected by federal and state-level budget reductions. In fact, current
federal legislation is pending that would transfer 4.3 cents per gallon of a
non-dedicated portion of the federal gasoline tax -- funds that are now
channeled to the general treasury for use in reducing the federal budget
deficit -- to the Highway Trust Fund. While this proposed legislation is
receiving bipartisan support currently, there is no assurance that passage of
the legislation will be successful.

Against the backdrop of what is described by some economists as a soft
takeoff in economic and construction activity in the current year following a
soft landing back in 1995, a modest increase in the total value of construction
awards is expected for the full year 1996. While the increase in 1996
construction awards is expected to be concentrated in commercial income and
residential construction properties, the level of public works construction
awards is expected to be flat through 1996.

Because of the concentration of the Aggregates division's operations in
the southeastern, midwestern and central regions of the country, the division's
and, consequently, the Corporation's operating performance is dependent on the
strength of these specific regional economies. Therefore, the division's
performance could be adversely affected by the future economic conditions of
these regions.

In connection with the Aggregates division's geographic expansion
strategy, the Corporation has made strategic acquisitions that not only widened
its geographic exposure but also added significant distribution flexibility.
In this regard, the division now has significant water transportation
distribution capabilities in addition to truck and rail. The acquisition of
the Dravo construction aggregates business in 1995 complemented the division's
operations by adding operating facilities, including barges and distribution
yards, along the Ohio and Mississippi River systems, as well as on the Gulf of
Mexico and the Southeastern Atlantic coast. New quarry and mineral reserve
locations resulting from the acquisition of the former Dravo operations in the
Bahamas and from a separate acquisition in Nova Scotia have added important
markets outside the United States in Canada, the Caribbean islands and South
America. These quarries add significant long-term mineral reserve capacity
that position the Corporation to be able to compete for construction aggregate
and chemical stone business along the east coast and near major Eastern
metropolitan markets which are accessible by water transportation.

Second Quarter and Six Months Ended June 30, 1996 and 1995



Finally, it should be noted that with respect to the seasonal nature of
the aggregates business, levels of construction activity in the division's
markets are affected significantly by regional weather conditions.
Accordingly, production and shipment levels coincide with general construction
activity levels, most of which occur in the division's markets typically during
the spring, summer and fall seasons.

The Aggregates division achieved record quarterly production and shipment
levels during the period ended June 30, 1996, reflecting the benefits of the
Corporation's growth strategy. Net volume increased by 12%, with growth
experienced in each of the division's operating regions despite continued
adverse weather conditions in the northern sections of the country during most
of the quarter. Consistent with prior periods and the previous year,
construction for infrastructure programs accounted for approximately one-half
of the division's sales thus far in 1996. Currently, management believes that
the Corporation will see improvement in the division's annual production and
shipment levels for the full year 1996, compared with the prior year, without
taking into account any acquisitions the Corporation may consummate during the
balance of the year. In the longer term, the Aggregates division's business
and financial results will continue to follow the national, as well as regional
and local, general economic trends. At this time, some industry analysts are
predicting an economic downturn beginning in the 1998 or 1999 time period. If
this downturn occurs, the pattern for total construction activity over the
economic cycle beginning in 1998 would represent a sharp change from those
cycles of previous periods in the early 1990s.

The Aggregates division's raw material reserves are sufficient to permit
production at present operating levels for the foreseeable future. Based upon
1995 annual shipment levels, the Corporation's raw material reserves exceed 50
years of production activity.

The Magnesia Specialties division's products, which include refractory and
dolomitic lime, are used principally within the steel industry. Sales to the
steel industry continue to account for approximately 74% of the Magnesia
Specialties division's current period sales. Accordingly, the division's
profitability is highly dependent on the manufacture of steel and its related
marketplace. Prices of its refractory products are directly affected by
current economic trends within the steel industry, which continues to
experience price weaknesses. To mitigate this exposure, the management of
Magnesia Specialties has taken steps to emphasize new product development and
concentrate on additional products for use in environmental, agricultural and
other industrial applications. As a result, the division's financial results
have benefited from increased sales of its higher-margin chemical and lime
products, coupled with successful cost reduction programs at its manufacturing
facilities.

The June 1995 strike at an operating facility in Manistee, Michigan, which
adversely affected the division's earnings for 1995, was settled successfully
and a new four-year agreement reached in early August 1995. During the current
period, another labor union contract at a separate operating location in
Woodville, Ohio, was renegotiated successfully without work interruption.

The Corporation is involved in various environmental and reclamation
matters. Among the variables that management must assess in evaluating costs
associated with these issues are evolving

environmental regulatory standards. The nature of these matters makes it
difficult to estimate the timing and amount of any costs that may be necessary
for future remedial measures. The Corporation incurs certain
environmental-related costs in connection with its operations, including land
reclamation costs, pollution control facility operating and maintenance costs,
and environmental program compliance and monitoring costs. For financial
reporting purposes, the Corporation treats these costs as normal ongoing
operating expenses of its businesses and records them as costs of sales in the
period in which they are incurred.

The Corporation records appropriate financial statement accruals for
environmental matters in the period in which liability is established and the
appropriate amount can be estimated reasonably. The Corporation currently has
no material provisions for estimated costs in connection with
environmental-related expenditures, because it is impossible to quantify with
certainty the potential impact of all actions regarding environmental matters,
particularly the extent and cost of future remediation and other compliance
efforts. However, in the opinion of management, it is unlikely that any
additional liability the Corporation may incur for known environmental issues
or that compliance with present environmental protection laws would have a
material adverse effect on the Corporation's consolidated financial position or
on its results of operations.

BUSINESS COMBINATION WITH DRAVO

In January 1995, Materials purchased substantially all of the assets of
the construction aggregates business of Dravo for an acquisition price of
approximately $121 million in cash plus certain assumed liabilities. In
addition, the Company recorded a provision of approximately $7 million for
estimated costs to consummate the transaction and integrate the operations.
The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting,
wherein approximately $7 million in goodwill was recognized by the Corporation
after recording approximately $8 million in other intangibles (representing the
estimated fair market value of certain assets) and other purchase adjustments
necessary to allocate the purchase price to the value of assets acquired and
liabilities assumed. As of June 30, 1996, approximately $6.7 million (of the
$7 million of costs originally estimated to consummate the transaction and
integrate the operations) has been expended and charged against the liability.
Management expects the balance of the estimated costs will be incurred during
the remainder of 1996. Goodwill and other intangibles are being amortized over
20-year periods.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net sales for the quarter were $200.4 million, a 14% increase over 1995
second quarter sales of $175.9 million. Net sales for the first six months of
1996 were $337.0 million, an increase of 10% over net sales for the
year-earlier period of $305.9 million. Earnings from operations were up $8.8
million, or 28%, to $39.9 million for the second quarter of 1996 over the same
period in 1995, with earnings from operations up $2.8 million, to $48.5 million
for the first six months of 1996, compared with the first six months of 1995.
Consolidated net earnings for the quarter increased 34% to $26.8 million, or
$0.58 per share, from 1995 second quarter net earnings of $20.0 million, or
$0.43 per share. For the six-month period ended June 30, 1996, consolidated
net earnings were $31.1 million,

or $0.68 per share. This represents an increase of 10% over net earnings for
the first six months of 1995 of $28.2 million, or $0.61 per share.

Sales for the Aggregates division increased 15% to $167.7 million for the
second quarter, compared with the year-earlier period. The division's sales
increased 11% to $271.3 million for the first six months of 1996, compared with
the first six months of 1995. This increase in sales reflects record
year-to-date aggregates shipments of 46 million tons and an increase in the
division's average net selling price, when compared to the same period in 1995.
The division's second quarter operating profits were $37.6 million, an increase
of 23% over operating profits for the year-earlier period of $30.6 million. The
division's operating profits for the first six months of 1996 increased slightly
to $43.2 million from $42.4 million for the first six months of 1995, reflecting
the lingering effect of adverse weather conditions within most of the markets
served by the division during most of the first quarter of 1996. The
Corporation's aggregates business is highly seasonal, due primarily to the
effect of weather conditions on the level of construction activity, the most of
which occurs typically in the spring, summer, and early fall. The severe winter
weather conditions experienced during the first quarter of 1996 contributed to
overall higher production costs during the first six months of the year.
Management continues to believe that the Corporation's annual production and
shipments, excluding any acquisition activities, will see some improvement for
the full year ending December 31, 1996, compared with the prior year.

The Magnesia Specialties division had second quarter 1996 sales of $32.8
million, an increase of 10% over the second quarter of 1995, and had six month
1996 sales of $65.7 million, an increase of 6% in the first six months of 1996
over 1995. Even though shipments of refractory products for the first six
months of 1996 were relatively flat when compared with the year-earlier period,
overall prices were up somewhat. Because of a more favorable customer and
product sales mix during the first half of the year, the division realized a
softening of pricing pressures during the period. However, the division's
management continues to expect price weaknesses in this sector for the
foreseeable future due to the fixed market limitations inherent within the
steel industry. Chemical product sales for the first half of 1996 were above
those for the comparable period in 1995, principally due to strong industrial
products and magnesium hydroxide sales. Additionally, sales of the division's
lime products, used in the steel industry's basic oxygen furnaces, continued to
strengthen through the first half of the year.

Compared to the year-earlier period, the division's earnings from
operations for the first six months of 1996 increased to $5.3 million from $3.2
million in 1995. While the division's lower operating earnings for the first
half of 1995 principally reflected the effect of costs incurred during a 1995
labor strike, the improvement in the operating margin for the first half of
1996 is attributable to the benefits realized by the division's efforts to
build a more competitive operating cost structure, despite the somewhat
negative impact of an explosion and resulting fire in an electrical substation
at the division's Woodville, Ohio, lime plant.

The labor union contract covering the employees at the Magnesia
Specialties lime operation at Woodville, Ohio, expired in June 1996. A new
labor union agreement was renegotiated successfully without work interruption.

Other income and expenses, net, for the six months ended June 30, were
$4.4 million in income in 1996 and $2.6 million in income in 1995. In addition
to several offsetting amounts, the 1996 amount included nonrecurring pretax
gains of approximately $1.8 million associated with the selling of certain
assets and a foreign investment along with approximately $1.1 million of
interest income from affiliates loans. The 1995 amount also included a
nonrecurring pretax gain of approximately $1.4 million related to certain asset
dispositions in connection with one of the Corporation's equity investments and
$0.6 million of interest income from loans to affiliates.

Interest expense was approximately $1.2 million, or 27%, higher in the
first six months of 1996 over 1995. The increase in 1996 resulted from the net
effect of the additional long-term borrowings by the Corporation in December
1995, when the Corporation publicly offered and sold its

$125 million 7% Debentures, offset by the reduction of long-term debt during
the period caused by the repayment of the 8 1/2% Notes on March 1, 1996, and
the reduced amounts outstanding during the period that were due to Lockheed
Martin under the credit agreement.

The Corporation's estimated effective income tax rate for the first six
months was 33.9% in 1996 and 35.5% in 1995. See Note 4 of the Notes to
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Corporation's net working capital at June 30, 1996, was $165.2
million, which reflects an increase of $24.2 million over the year-end net
working capital. Shareholders' equity reached $444.6 million as of the end of
the second quarter of 1996, an increase of $21.0 million over total
shareholders' equity at year-end 1995. The ratio of long-term debt to total
capitalization was 25% at June 30, 1996, compared with 35% at year-end, which
reflected the impact of the December 1995 sale of $125 million of long-term
debentures. The primary use of the proceeds from the sale of these debentures
was ultimately for the repayment of a portion of certain related party debt and
the $100-million aggregate principal amount of the Corporation's 8 1/2% Notes.
These notes matured on March 1, 1996, at which time they were paid in full upon
redemption by their holders. Accordingly, the Corporation's
debt-to-capitalization ratio dropped to 25% following repayment of the 8 1/2%
Notes in March, an action which had a significant and favorable impact on the
Corporation's capital structure. In addition to the above-stated debentures,
as of June 30, 1996, $1.5 million was outstanding under the terms of a cash
management agreement and $23 million was outstanding under the terms of a
credit agreement, each with its majority shareholder, Lockheed Martin. As of
August 1, 1996, $12 million was outstanding under the terms of these
agreements.

Net cash flow provided by operating activities during the first six months
of 1996 was $26.8 million, compared with $37.6 million in the comparable period
of 1995. The cash flow from operating activities for both 1995 and 1996 was
principally from earnings, before deducting depreciation, depletion and
amortization, offset by increased demand for working capital. Working capital
increases during the first half of 1996 were principally due to an increase in
accounts receivable balances due to timing and growth in aggregates demand, as
well as more moderate increases in amounts due from affiliates and in certain
inventory balances. The increased demand on working capital during the first
half of 1995 was primarily the result of increases in inventory and accounts
receivable balances, both of which were offset somewhat by increased trade
accounts payable and other liabilities balances. The seasonal nature of the
construction aggregates business impacts quarterly net cash provided by
operating activities when compared with the year. Accordingly, full year 1995
net cash provided by operating activities was $128.6 million, compared with the
$37.6 million provided by operations in the first half of 1995.

Capital expenditures, excluding acquisitions, for the first half of 1996
were $33.4 million, compared with $34.1 million for the same period in 1995.
Capital expenditures are expected to be approximately $82 million for 1996,
exclusive of acquisitions. Comparable capital expenditures, were $71.6 million
in 1995, $47.0 million in 1994 and $45.9 million in 1993. Capital expenditures

for 1995 and 1996 include increased spending requirements for capital
improvements and investments relating to the addition of the former Dravo
businesses.

The Corporation relies, for its liquidity requirements, upon internally
generated funds, access to capital markets, and funds obtained under its cash
management agreement and credit agreement, each with its majority shareholder,
Lockheed Martin. Prospectively, management may choose to borrow from
third-party lenders or through the Corporation's access to capital markets.
The above-referenced credit agreement with Lockheed Martin, which includes a
revolving credit provision that expires December 31, 1996, but may be extended
by mutual consent of both parties, provides for borrowings of up to $55
million. Loans outstanding under the credit agreement bear interest at a
published prime interest rate or at LIBOR plus a graduated rate.

During the latter half of 1996, management expects to establish a
revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks to replace the current
credit agreements with Lockheed Martin. It should be noted, however, that the
Corporation has not determined the specific timing when, or method by which, it
may establish and access such a banking credit facility. Further, while any
such borrowings may be used initially to provide necessary working capital
funds, it is anticipated that the Corporation will repay the funds borrowed
under its credit agreement with Lockheed Martin with such bank borrowings.
Additionally, management may choose further access to the public debt markets
through the issuance of commercial paper or other debt securities. Again, it
should be noted that the Corporation has not determined the method or methods
by which it may further access the public market.

With respect to the Corporation's ability to access the public market, it
has an effective shelf registration on file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission for the offering of up to $175 million of debt securities, which
may be issued from time to time. The Corporation's ability to issue such debt
securities at any time is dependent, among other things, upon market
conditions. Additionally, limitations under the amended and restated credit
agreement and certain other agreements in effect currently with Lockheed Martin
may restrict the Corporation's ability to borrow funds from the public market
and third-party lenders.

Based on prior performance and current expectations, the Corporation's
management believes that cash flows from internally generated funds and its
access to capital markets are expected to continue to be sufficient to provide
the capital resources necessary to fund the operating needs of its existing
businesses, cover debt service requirements, and allow for payment of dividends
in 1996. The Corporation may be required to obtain additional levels of
financing in order to fund certain strategic acquisitions if any such
opportunities arise. Currently, the Corporation's senior unsecured debt is
rated "A" by Standard & Poor's and "A3" by Moody's. While Standard & Poor's
continues to keep the Corporation's debt rating on CreditWatch -- an action
that was taken in March 1996 as a result of its 81% ownership by Lockheed
Martin -- Standard & Poor's announced in July that, upon consummation of the
proposed Transaction by Lockheed Martin, the Corporation's "A" senior debt
rating will be affirmed and removed from CreditWatch. In a related July press
release following the announcement of the proposed split-off transaction,
Moody's confirmed the Corporation's "A3" senior debt rating and expects the
Corporation's financial position and debt protection measurements

to remain consistent with such rating. While management believes its credit
ratings will remain at an investment-grade level, no assurance can be given
that these ratings will remain at the above-mentioned levels.

As of August 1, 1996, the Board of Directors has approved regular
quarterly dividends on the Corporation's Common Stock totalling $0.34 a share
through the first three quarters of 1996. Dividends were authorized and paid
at a rate of $0.11 a share in each of the first two quarters of the year, and
in July the Board of Directors declared an increase in the Corporation's
regular quarterly dividend to $0.12 a share for the third quarter of 1996.
This third quarter dividend is payable September 30, 1996, to shareholders of
record as of the close of business on August 30, 1996. The Corporation's
amended and restated credit agreement with Lockheed Martin, in effect
currently, contains certain covenants that may, in certain circumstances,
restrict the Corporation's ability to pay dividends.

The Corporation may repurchase up to 2.5 million shares of its common
stock under authorizations from the Corporation's Board of Directors for use in
the Omnibus Securities Award Plan and for general corporate purposes. As of
August 1, 1996, there have been 68,200 shares repurchased under these
authorizations.

OTHER MATTERS

In connection with the Transaction, the Corporation's Board of Directors
has adopted a shareholder rights plan that will become effective, and certain
terms of which will be established, upon consummation of the Transaction, at
the discretion of the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors. The
shareholder rights plan provides, among other things, that if any person or
group of persons becomes the beneficial owner of 15% or more of the
Corporation's Common Stock, all holders of rights issued pursuant to the plan
(other than such person or group of persons and their affiliates, associates
and transferees) will have the right to acquire shares of the Corporation's
Common Stock at 50% of the then current market value.

Also in connection with the Transaction, the Board of Directors has
adopted, and has recommended that the shareholders of the Corporation approve
at a special meeting to be called for such purpose, certain amendments to the
Corporation's Articles of Incorporation. The proposed amendments are intended
to reduce the vulnerability of the Corporation to an unsolicited takeover
proposal, particularly one that is made at an inadequate price or does not
contemplate the acquisition of all of the Corporation's Common Stock. The
special meeting of the shareholders to approve such amendments will be held
prior to the consummation of the Transaction, and Lockheed Martin, which
beneficially owns 81% of the Corporation's Common Stock, has indicated that it
intends to vote its shares in favor of such amendments. Accordingly, if
Lockheed Martin votes its shares as it has indicated, such amendments will be
adopted without the vote of any other shareholder of the Corporation.

The Corporation adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to be Disposed Of" ("FAS 121"),

as of January 1, 1996. The pronouncement requires that certain long-lived
assets be reviewed for impairment when circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Additionally, FAS 121 requires
that certain long-lived assets held for disposition be reported at the lower of
the carrying amount or fair value less any selling costs. The impact of the
adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material effect on the
Corporation's consolidated financial position or on its results of operations.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("FAS
123"), in 1995, which will be effective for financial statements in the current
year. FAS 123 introduces a fair-value based method of accounting for
stock-based compensation and encourages, but does not require, compensation
expense recognition for grants of stock, stock options and other equity
instruments to employees based on the new fair-value accounting rules.
Companies that choose not to adopt the new rules will continue to apply the
existing accounting rules contained in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25"). However, it should
be noted that although expense recognition for employee stock-based
compensation is not mandatory, FAS 123 requires companies that choose not to
adopt the fair-value accounting rules to disclose pro forma net income and
earnings per share under the new method. Currently, management intends to
continue applying the accounting rules in APB 25 for purposes of recognizing
compensation expense for stock option grants to employees of the Corporation
and will adopt the disclosure provisions of FAS 123 as required in the fourth
quarter of 1996.

The impact of inflation on Materials' businesses has become less
significant with the benefit of lower inflation rates in recent years. When
the Corporation incurs higher costs to replace productive facilities and
equipment, increased depreciation generally is countered by increased capacity
and productivity, increased selling prices, and various other offsetting
factors.
