Item 4.  Description of Securities.
         ------------------------- 

  Deferred Compensation Payment Obligations

  Under the Deferred Performance Payment Plan of Lockheed Martin Corporation
Space & Strategic Missiles Sector (the "Plan"), Lockheed Martin Corporation (the
"Registrant") will provide eligible employees the opportunity to defer a
specified portion of amounts payable under The Lockheed Martin Corporation Space
& Strategic Missiles Sector Performance Plan for Employees in Key Assignments
Essential/Critical to the Success of Sector Consolidation.  The obligation of
the Registrant to distribute the compensation deferred, as adjusted by interest
accrued, if any, (the "Deferred Compensation Payment Obligation"), will be an
unsecured general obligation of the Registrant to pay the deferred compensation
in the future in accordance with the terms of the Plan, and will rank pari passu
with other unsecured general obligations of the Registrant.  Distribution will
be in cash.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
         -------------------------------------- 

  The Opinion of Counsel as to the legality of the securities being issued
(constituting Exhibit 5-A) has been rendered by counsel who is a full-time
employee of the Registrant.  The Opinion of Counsel as to compliance with the
requirements of ERISA (constituting Exhibit 5-B) has been rendered by counsel
who is a full-time employee of the Registrant.  Counsel rendering such opinions
are not eligible to participate in the Plan.


Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
         ----------------------------------------- 

  The Maryland General Corporation Law authorizes Maryland corporations to limit
the liability of directors and officers to the corporation or its stockholders
for money damages, except (a) to the extent that it is proved that the person
actually received an improper benefit or profit in money, property or services,
for the amount of the benefit or profit in money, property or services actually
received, (b) to the extent that a judgment or other final adjudication adverse
to the person is entered in a proceeding based on a finding that the person's
action or failure

                                      -2-
<PAGE>
 
to act was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and was material to
the cause of action adjudicated in the proceeding or (c) in respect of certain
other actions not applicable to the Registrant.  Under the Maryland General
Corporation Law, unless limited by charter, indemnification is mandatory if a
director or an officer has been successful on the merits or otherwise in the
defense of any proceeding by reason of his or her service as a director unless
such indemnification is not otherwise permitted as described in the following
sentence. Indemnification is permissive unless it is established that (a) the
act or omission of the director was material to the matter giving rise to the
proceeding and was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and
deliberate dishonesty, (b) the director actually received an improper personal
benefit in money, property or services or (c) in the case of any criminal
proceeding, the director had reasonable cause to believe his or her act or
omission was unlawful.  In addition to the foregoing, a court of appropriate
jurisdiction may under certain circumstances order indemnification if it
determines that the director or officer is fairly and reasonably entitled to
indemnification in view of all the relevant circumstances, whether or not the
director or officer has met the standards of conduct set forth in the preceding
sentence or has been adjudged liable on the basis that a personal benefit was
improperly received in a proceeding charging improper personal benefit to the
director or officer.  If the proceeding was an action by or in the right of the
corporation or involved a determination that the director or officer received an
improper personal benefit, however, no indemnification may be made if the
individual is adjudged liable to the corporation, except to the extent of
expenses approved by a court of competent jurisdiction.

  Article XI of the Charter of the Registrant limits the liability of directors
and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the Maryland General Corporation
Law.  Article XI of the Charter also authorizes the Registrant to adopt by-laws
or resolutions to provide for the indemnification of directors and officers.
Article VI of the By-laws of the Registrant provides for the indemnification of
the Registrant's directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the
Maryland General Corporation Law.  In addition, the Registrant's directors and
officers are covered by certain insurance policies maintained by the Registrant.

Item 9.  Undertakings.
         ------------ 

  (a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

    (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

    (i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;

    (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement;

    (iii)  To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any
material change to such information in the registration statement;

  Provided, however, that subparagraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to
section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are
incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

    (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

    (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.

  (b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of

                                      -4-
<PAGE>
 
1933, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or
section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by
reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.

  (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

                    Plan of Lockheed Martin Corporation Space & Strategic
                    Missiles Sector

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     I submit this opinion to you in connection with the filing with the
Securities and Exchange Commission of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the
"Registration Statement") on the date hereof.  The Registration Statement
registers $14,000,000 in Deferred Compensation Payment Obligations of Lockheed
Martin Corporation (the "Corporation") for use in connection with the Deferred
Performance Payment Plan of Lockheed Martin Corporation Space & Strategic
Missiles Sector (the "Plan").  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein
shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Registration Statement.

     As Associate General Counsel of the Corporation, I have examined such
corporate records, certificates and other documents and have reviewed such
questions of law as I deemed necessary or appropriate for the purpose of this
opinion.  Based upon that examination and review, I advise you that in my
opinion:

     (i) the Corporation has been duly incorporated, is validly existing and is
in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland; and

     (ii) to the extent that the operation of the Plan results in the issuance
of Deferred Compensation Payment Obligations of the Corporation, such Deferred
Compensation Payment Obligations have been duly and validly authorized and, when
issued in accordance with the terms set forth in the Registration Statement,
will be legally issued and will be binding obligations of the Corporation.

     I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement and to the reference to my opinion in the Registration
Statement.  In giving my consent, I do not
