| • |     | Industry Expertise. The GPP Committee ensures that a number of directors possess knowledge, experience, and/or expertise with aviation/aerospace, engineering, and/or product safety oversight. These areas of industry expertise of our directors enhance the Board’s ability to assess Company performance and provide strategic guidance with respect to each of our principal businesses. |

| • |     | Safety. The Board is committed to safety as a core value of the Company—both with respect to our aerospace products and services and our employees in the workplace. One manifestation of this commitment is the inclusion on the Board of members with a wide range of experience in areas where safety is paramount. |

| • |     | Time Commitment/Other Board Service. Directors are expected to ensure that other commitments, including outside board memberships, do not interfere with their responsibilities as Boeing directors. Consequently, directors may not serve on more than three public company boards in addition to Boeing (one, if the director is a public company CEO). The GPP Committee reviews directors’ outside commitments to ensure that all directors are able to devote sufficient time to Boeing. If a director, solely through service on for-profit boards previously approved by the GPP Committee, exceeds the public company limits set forth above, such director shall commit to reduce the number of such directorships in order to fall within such limits within 12 months. |

| • |     | Independence. In addition to any regulatory limitations with respect to independence, the GPP Committee evaluates each nominee with respect to Boeing’s publicly disclosed Director Independence Standards, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) director independence standards and any potential conflicts of interest, including from other positions the director holds or has held. |

| • |     | Reputation. As set forth in our Corporate Governance Principles, our directors are expected to have a reputation for personal and professional integrity, honesty and adherence to the highest ethical standards. |

| • |     | Length of Service. The Board believes that regular refreshment of the Board is critical for us to gain fresh perspectives and maintain our position as a global aerospace leader. At the same time, with decades-long product cycles and lengthy development periods, we also benefit from directors with extensive Boeing experience. As a result, the GPP Committee’s strategy is to maintain a balance among directors of short, medium and longer tenures. |

| • |     | Regulatory Compliance. All director nominees must satisfy NYSE and Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, requirements for Board service, including those with respect to
