SUMMARY OF OUR COMPENSATION CONSIDERATIONS /



          Sustainability, Safety and the Health of Our Employees During the
          COVID-19 Pandemic

          Our sustainability efforts and our commitment to our employees go hand-in-hand. We discuss these important topics in
          several places in our public filings, including our annual Sustainability Report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
          year ended December 31, 2020 where we discuss the importance of Human Capital to our Company. We encourage you
          to read those materials. In this section, we would like to highlight several of these topics and tell you about our
          achievements in these areas-namely, what Sustainability means to us generally, Environmental Stewardship, Safety, and
          Our Employees.


          Sustainability
          Our approach to Sustainability is embedded in four vital pillars of Safety, Environment, Employees, and
          Community. We continued to achieve improvements in each of these areas in 2020.

             responsible leadership

          Track records such as ours are built purposefully; they are the result of a deliberate focus on
          fulfilling our responsibilities to our shareholders, our employees and other stakeholders. These
          responsibilities include:

                  Demanding and facilitating           Creating a positive, lasting        Growing our business and
                  a safe, ethical workplace            impact on our communities           responsibly investing our
                  for our employees                    and the environment                 capital for maximum return

            In furtherance of these continuing commitments, we have:

            • Included performance relating to Environment, Health, Safety and Sustainability (collectively, EHS) in our
              management strategy
            • Considered achievement of individual and company-wide goals in regard to EHS in management compensation
              decisions
            • Developed a task force relating to Sustainability with a view towards assessing and improving Company
              performance and disclosure against world-class achievements
            • Report regularly, at least twice annually, our progress on EHS issues to our Ethics, Environment, Health and Safety
              Committee (EESHC), an independent Committee of the Board of Directors

          These critical matters are important to this Committee, the full Board, and management of Martin Marietta.

          SOAR, supplemented by our annual plan, has guided us since 2010 as we have grown our business, driven our safety
          incidents to record low levels, achieved record financial performance and created positive impacts on our communities and
          the environment. Key managers from across our business and our senior leadership team engage throughout the year on
          material topics, including safety, employee well-being, community well-being and the environment.
