Lockheed Martin Wins $145 Million Emergency Response and Engineering Contract
from the Environmental Protection Agency
Corporation Continues to Support EPA's Environmental Response Team

ROCKVILLE, Md., Oct. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- The Environmental Protection Agency
has awarded Lockheed Martin (NYSE: LMT) a seven-year, $145 million contract to
support its Environmental Response Team with technical and analytical
expertise during environmental emergencies in the U.S. and U.S. territories.

Under the Scientific, Engineering, Response & Analytical Services (SERAS)
Program, Lockheed Martin will provide the EPA's Environmental Response Team
with 24-hour support during environmental emergencies, quickly assessing the
situation, making suggestions for containment and assisting with remediation
activities. Such emergencies could include national and international
incidents involving releases of oil and hazardous materials and uncontrolled
hazardous waste sites.

Lockheed Martin has supported the EPA in its emergency response mission
through a predecessor program, the Response Engineering and Analytical
Contract (REAC), which the company was awarded in 1999 and again in 2004.

"When an emergency happens, quick response is built on a foundation of
teamwork and trust, especially during trying conditions," said Lynn Singleton,
director of Environmental Services in the Corporation's Information Systems
and Global Services business area. "Lockheed Martin is extremely proud to have
been selected to continue as the EPA's teammate in working to safeguard our
environment."

As the Environmental Response Team's main support contractor, Lockheed Martin
supplies a highly-skilled staff of chemists, biologists, engineers,
geologists, environmental scientists and support personnel. This staff will
perform field work, onsite monitoring and analysis, and field or laboratory
analytical support. Supporting Lockheed Martin's team are Syracuse Research
Corporation, Cherokee CRC, LLC, Dycon Government Solutions, Inc., and The ACI
Group.

Lockheed Martin has supported the EPA's mission since 1974, providing
evaluations of environmental conditions throughout the U.S. and ensuring that
the agency's IT infrastructure is maintained, protected and capable of
supporting its full range of environmental missions. Recently, the
Corporation was selected to support the Information Technology Solutions - EPA
II program (ITS-EPA II). Under this blanket purchase agreement, Lockheed
Martin can provide IT and services across the EPA to enable secure information
exchange, environmental data analysis, and scientific investigation.

In addition to supporting the EPA, Lockheed Martin is working with its
customers to address the nation's challenges in the areas of energy
efficiency, management, next-generation alternative energy generation and
climate monitoring. The Corporation provides a full range of energy solutions
to the government and regulated industry, including the Department of Energy,
Environmental Protection Agency, state and regional energy organizations,
utilities and businesses.

Headquartered in Bethesda, Md., Lockheed Martin is a global security company
that employs about 140,000 people worldwide and is principally engaged in the
research, design, development, manufacture, integration and sustainment of
advanced technology systems, products and services. The corporation reported
2008 sales of $42.7 billion.
