Item 5.04 Temporary Suspension of Trading Under Registrant's Employee Benefit Plan.

In connection with a planned change in the administration of its employee savings plans to Empower Retirement effective January 1, 2019, on October 29, 2018, Lockheed Martin Corporation (the “Corporation”) received a notice (the "Notice") required by Section 101(i)(2)(E) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), regarding a blackout period under each of the following plans (each, a "Plan" and collectively, the "Plans"):

•
Lockheed Martin Corporation Salaried Savings Plan,
•
Lockheed Martin Corporation Performance Sharing Plan for Bargaining Employees,
•
Lockheed Martin Corporation Hourly Employee Savings Plan Plus,
•
Lockheed Martin Corporation Basic Benefit Plan for Hourly Employees,
•
Lockheed Martin Corporation Operations Support Savings Plan,
•
Lockheed Martin Corporation Supplemental Savings Plan,
•
Lockheed Martin Corporation Capital Accumulation Plan,
•
Lockheed Martin Corporation Capital Accumulation Plan for Hourly Employees,
•
Lockheed Martin Corporation Nonqualified Capital Accumulation Plan, and
•

The Plans include Lockheed Martin common stock as an investment option. During the Blackout Period (as defined below), participants will be unable to access their Plan accounts to transfer or diversify their investments, to change their investment elections or to obtain loans, withdrawals or distributions.

The temporary blackout period will begin at 4:00 P.M. Eastern time on December 26, 2018, and end at 8:00 A.M. Eastern time on January 9, 2019 (the "Blackout Period"). Notice of the Blackout Period was sent to participants in each of the Plans on October 29, 2018. On October 29, 2018, pursuant to Section 306 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and Rule 104 of Regulation BTR (Blackout Trading Restriction), the Corporation sent a separate notice (the "Insider Notice") to its directors and executive officers informing them that during the Blackout Period they will generally be prohibited from purchasing, selling, or otherwise acquiring or transferring Lockheed Martin common stock or derivative securities with respect to Lockheed Martin common stock acquired in connection with service or employment as directors or officers of Lockheed Martin. A copy of the Insider Notice is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
