Code of Ethical Business Conduct 11

Demonstrating Our Integrity

Upholding the Code

Maintaining the trust of our employees, customers, stakeholders, and
communities is essential to ensuring sustainable success. Our Code reflects our
commitment to ethical business practices, which often go beyond what the law
requires. It applies to our employees, Board of Directors, consultants, agents,
contract and temporary laborers and others representing or acting for our
Company. In addition, we expect our suppliers, vendors and others with which
Martin Marietta does business to follow the same high standards of business
conduct described in our Code of Ethical Business Conduct.
We follow both the letter and the spirit of the laws and regulations that govern
our business and the countries in which we operate. In this regard, we do not
take any illegal or unethical action, even if it appears to benefit the Company or is
directed by a higher authority in the organization.
Any waiver of the Code for executive officers or members of the Board of
Directors may be made only by the Board or a Board committee and must be
promptly disclosed to our shareholders on our website.
Violations of the Code or failure to cooperate in investigations regarding possible
violations may result in disciplinary action up to and including termination. Leaders
are accountable for actions that could influence employees to violate our Code.
