           be received by the Secretary of Martin Marietta no later than December 15, 2023 in order to be included in the Proxy
           Statement and on the Proxy Card that will be solicited by the Board of Directors in connection with that meeting. The
           inclusion of any proposal will be subject to applicable rules of the SEC. In addition, the Bylaws of Martin Marietta establish
           an advance notice requirement for any proposal of business to be considered at an Annual Meeting, including the
           nomination of any person for election as Director. In general, written notice must be received by the Secretary of Martin
           Marietta at its principal executive office, 4123 Parklake Avenue, Raleigh, North Carolina 27612, not less than 60 days nor

           proposals must be received by the Secretary of Martin Marietta no earlier than January 14, 2024 and no later than
           February 13, 2024. Any waiver by Martin Marietta of these requirements with respect to the submission of a particular
           shareholder proposal shall not constitute a waiver with respect to the submission of any other shareholder proposal nor
           shall it obligate Martin Marietta to waive these requirements with respect to future submissions of the shareholder
           proposal or any other shareholder proposal. Our Bylaws provide a proxy access right to permit a shareholder, or a group of
           up to 20 shareholders, owning at least 3% of our outstanding common stock continuously for at least three years, to
           nominate and include in our proxy materials director nominees constituting up to 25% of the Board of Directors or two

           our Bylaws. Under our Bylaws, compliant notice of proxy access Director nominations for the 2024 Annual Meeting must
           be submitted to the Corporate Secretary of Martin Marietta no earlier than November 15, 2023 and no later than
           December 15, 2023. The notice must contain the information required by the Bylaws. Any shareholder desiring a copy of
           the Bylaws of Martin Marietta will be furnished one without charge upon written request to the Secretary of Martin
           Marietta at its principal executive office, 4123 Parklake Avenue, Raleigh, North Carolina 27612. In addition to satisfying
           the foregoing requirements under our Bylaws, to comply with the SEC’s universal proxy rules, shareholders who intend to
           solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Board of Directors’ nominees must provide notice that sets
           forth the information required by SEC Rule 14a-19 no later than March 12, 2024 and comply with the other requirements
           of our Bylaws applicable to such solicitations.
