The funds will help sustain the United Way's effort to support those who lost
homes and property during the devastating wild fires last month in Brevard
County.

"We have employees who were directly affected by the wild fires but are very
fortunate that none lost their homes," said Tom Vice, Northrop Grumman
Integrated Systems regional vice president. "We are committed in our support to
the Space Coast community and recognize the important role United Way of Brevard
plays for those who lost much more."

Rains thanked the company for their help saying, "The outpouring of support we
have seen from the community has been wonderful. These funds will go a long way
in helping those most heavily affected by last month's fires get back on their
feet."

The funds are part of a larger disaster relief donation announced by Northrop
Grumman for those affected by disasters, including recent U.S. tornadoes, the
7.9-magnitude earthquake that devastated Sichuan Province in China, the Myanmar
cyclone and the Brevard County fires.

"Northrop Grumman and its employees are saddened by the impact of the storms on
our employees here at home, and we are deeply concerned about the devastation
suffered by so many people abroad," said chairman and chief executive officer
Ron Sugar. "As a company, and as individuals, we hope our contributions will
provide a measure of support to those who need it now and in the future."
