Lockheed Martin Corporation proposes to amend an internal corporate policy statement (CPS-730), related to complying with the Anti-Corruption Laws, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, effective as of June 16, 2011. This is a routine amendment to update the Corporation’s internal procedures.

In 1976, Lockheed Corporation (then known as Lockheed Aircraft Corporation) agreed to a consent order with the Securities Exchange Commission in which it, among other things, agreed to file a Current Report on Form 8-K at least 10 days prior to the proposed effectiveness of any amendment to its policy statement and procedures for complying with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Consistent with past practice, Lockheed Martin is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K on behalf of its former subsidiary, Lockheed Corporation, and has included as an exhibit to this filing CPS-730, as proposed to be amended effective as of June 16, 2011.
