(2) Held in the Northrop Grumman Savings and Investment Plan (the "Plan"), a qualified profit sharing plan, as of November 8, 2011. Share totals with respect to the Plan are based upon unit accounting and therefore may reflect a decrease in units attributable to an individual though no disposition occurred.

(4) SEP units credited under the Northrop Grumman Savings Excess Plan (the "SEP Plan"), a non-qualified deferred compensation plan, as of November 8, 2011. The value of each unit is based on the price of Issuer common stock, although share totals with respect to the SEP Plan are based upon unit accounting and therefore may reflect a decrease in units attributable to an individual though no disposition occurred.
(5) SEP units are payable in cash following termination of the Reporting Person's employment with the Issuer.
