EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

APPENDIX B
TO THE NORTHROP GRUMMAN SUPPLEMENTAL PLAN 2
ERISA Supplemental Program 2
(Amended and Restated Effective as of January 1, 2014)

Appendix B to the Northrop Grumman Supplemental Plan 2 (the "Appendix") is
hereby amended and restated effective as of January 1, 2014. This restatement
amends the October 1, 2013 restatement and does not include changes that apply
to Grandfathered Amounts.

Effective October 1, 2013, the Northrop Grumman ERISA Supplemental Plan (the
"ERISA Supplemental Plan") was merged into the Appendix. For purposes of the
Plan, the ERISA Supplemental Plan shall not be considered part of the Program
described in this Appendix, and shall not be a separate Program of the Plan. The
Appendix includes Exhibit 1 - Northrop Grumman ERISA Supplemental Plan, which
contains the provisions applicable to eligible participants in, and benefits
determined pursuant to, the ERISA Supplemental Plan. Accordingly, Exhibit 1
governs all terms of participation in, including without limitation, all
benefits, rights and features of individuals covered by, the ERISA Supplemental
Plan.

B.01
Purpose. The purpose of the Program is:

(a)
to restore benefits lost under the Pension Plans as a result of the compensation
limit in Code section 401(a)(17), or any successor provision; and

(b)
to include compensation deferred under a Deferred Compensation Plan and
deferrals required in connection with participation under the Northrop Grumman
Electronic Systems Executive Pension Plan.

B.02
Eligibility. An employee of the Company, other than Charles H. Noski, is
eligible to receive a benefit under this Program if he or she:

(a)
retires on or after January 1, 1989;

(b)
has vested in Pension Plan benefits that are reduced because of one or both of
the following:

(1)
the Code section 401(a)(17) limit on compensation; or

(2)
participation in a Deferred Compensation Plan.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

B.03
Amount of Benefit.

(a)
The benefit payable under this Program with respect to a Participant who
commences benefits during his or her lifetime will equal the amounts described
in (1) through (3) below.

(1)
Cash Balance Piece. Effective for periods after June 30, 2003, a Participant
whose retirement benefit is determined under the terms of a Cash Balance Plan is
credited under this Program with Benefit Credits (as defined under the
Participant's Cash Balance Plan) he or she would have received:

(A)
but for the restrictions of Code sections 401(a)(17) or 415, as those limits are
described by the applicable Cash Balance Plan; and

(B)
but for the fact the Participant made deferrals to a Deferred Compensation Plan.

    
For purposes of (B), the Benefit Credits earned are credited in accordance with
the terms of the Cash Balance Plan applicable to Eligible Pay in excess of the
Social Security Wage Base and any compensation deferred is only treated as
compensation for benefit calculation purposes under this Program in the year(s)
payment would otherwise have been made and not in the year(s) of actual payment.

(2)
Historical and Transition Piece. Effective for periods prior to July 1, 2003 the
Participant is credited with the retirement benefit, if any, that would have
been payable under the terms of the Pension Plan:

(A)
but for the restrictions of Code sections 401(a)(17) or 415, as those limits are
described by the applicable Pension Plan; and

(B)
but for the fact that the Participant deferred compensation under either a
Deferred Compensation Plan or in connection with the Northrop Grumman Electronic
Systems Executive Pension Plan.

    
For purposes of (B), any compensation deferred is only treated as compensation
for benefit calculation purposes under this Program in the year(s) payment would
otherwise have been made and not in the year(s) of actual payment.

(3)
For Participants whose employment ceases after 2005, all Plan Years after 1996
(not just the last ten) shall be considered in determining the highest three
years of eligible pay for purposes of calculating benefit amounts. All benefits
resulting from this change in determining the highest three years of eligible
pay shall be subject to Code section 409A.

- 2 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

(b)
The benefit payable under this Program will be reduced by the combined amounts
of Pension Plan Benefits and the Northrop Grumman ERISA Supplemental Plan
benefits attributable to the applicable Pension Plan.

(c)
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Program, in accordance with Section
G.05, a Participant's total accrued benefits under all plans, programs, and
arrangements in which he or she participates, including the benefit accrued
under Section B.03, may not exceed 60% of his or her Final Average Salary (as
defined in Section G.02(c)), reduced for early retirement using the factors in
Section G.09. If this limit is exceeded, the Participant's accrued benefit under
Appendix F or G, whichever is applicable, will be reduced first, and the
Participant's accrued benefit under this Program will then be reduced to the
extent necessary to satisfy the limit.

(d)
Minimum Normal Retirement Benefits for Designated Participants.

(1)
"Minimum Normal Retirement Benefits for Designated Participants" are benefits
provided only in the Pension Plan appendices (i.e., benefits in excess of the
benefits provided by other portions of the Pension Plans).

(A)
These extra benefits are meant to partially restore benefits lost because of
Code section 401(a)(17).

(B)
Therefore, they are not included in the "retirement benefit" in (a), but they
are included for purposes of the offset in (b).

(2)
Example. An employee is initially entitled to an $85,000 annual benefit under
the Pension Plans. The employee would be entitled, but for section 401(a)(17),
to a $100,000 annual benefit under the Pension Plans, so that $15,000 is payable
under this Program. The Company then adds the minimum normal retirement benefit
appendices under the Pension Plans, which are intended to pay all or a portion
of the benefits previously payable by this Program under the Pension Plans
instead. Assume this results in the employee being entitled to an additional
$10,000 annual benefit under the appendices to the Pension Plans, so that the
Pension Plans now pay a total of $95,000. This Program restores to the employee
only the difference between $100,000 and $95,000, or a $5,000 annual benefit.

(e)
Benefits under this Program will only be paid to supplement benefit payments
actually made from a Pension Plan. If benefits are not payable under a Pension
Plan because the Participant has failed to vest or for any other reason, no
payments will be made under this Program with respect to such Pension Plan.

(f)
The following shall not be considered as compensation for purposes of
determining the amount of any benefit under the Program:

- 3 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

(1)
any payment authorized by the Compensation Committee that is (1) calculated
pursuant to the method for determining a bonus amount under the Annual Incentive
Plan (AIP) for a given year, and (2) paid in lieu of such bonus in the year
prior to the year the bonus would otherwise be paid under the AIP, and

(2)
any award payment under the Northrop Grumman Long-Term Incentive Cash Plan.

B.04
Preretirement Surviving Spouse Benefit.

(a)
Preretirement surviving spouse benefits will be payable under this Program on
behalf of a Participant if such Participant's surviving spouse is eligible for
benefits payable from a Pension Plan.

(b)
The benefit payable will be:

(1)
for periods after June 30, 2003, the amount which would have been payable under
the Cash Balance Plan:

(A)
but for the restrictions of Code sections 401(a)(17) and 415 (or any successor
sections), as those limits are described by the applicable Cash Balance Plan;
and

(B)
but for the fact that the Participant deferred compensation under a Deferred
Compensation Plan (with Benefit Credits determined by reference to amounts
exceeding the Social Security Wage Base); and

(2)
for periods prior to July 1, 2003, the amount which would have been payable
under the Pension Plan:

(A)
but for the restrictions of Code sections 401(a)(17) and 415 (or any successor
sections), as those limits are described by the applicable Pension Plan; and

(B)
but for the fact that the Participant deferred compensation under either a
Deferred Compensation Plan or in connection with the Northrop Grumman Electronic
Systems Executive Pension Plan.

(3)
For Participants whose employment ceases after 2005, all Plan Years after 1996
(not just the last ten) shall be considered in determining the highest three
years of eligible pay for purposes of calculating benefit amounts. All benefits
resulting from this change in determining the highest three years of eligible
pay shall be subject to Code section 409A.

- 4 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

(c)
For purposes of paragraph (b)(2) above, any compensation deferred will only be
treated as compensation for benefit calculation purposes under this Program in
the year(s) payment would otherwise have been made and not in the year(s) of
actual payment.

(d)
The benefit payable under this Program will be reduced by the combined amounts
of the Pension Plan Benefits and the Northrop Grumman Corporation ERISA
Supplemental Plan benefits attributable to the applicable Pension Plan.

(e)
No benefit will be payable under this Program with respect to a spouse after the
death of that spouse.

(f)
The following shall not be considered as compensation for purposes of
determining the amount of any benefit under the Program:

(1)
any payment authorized by the Compensation Committee that is (1) calculated
pursuant to the method for determining a bonus amount under the Annual Incentive
Plan (AIP) for a given year, and (2) paid in lieu of such bonus in the year
prior to the year the bonus would otherwise be paid under the AIP, and

(2)
any award payment under the Northrop Grumman Long-Term Incentive Cash Plan.

B.05
Plan Termination. No further benefits may be earned under this Program with
respect to a particular Pension Plan after the termination of such Pension Plan.

B.06
Pension Plan Benefits. For purposes of this Appendix, the term "Pension Plan
Benefits" generally means the benefits actually payable to a Participant,
spouse, beneficiary or contingent annuitant under a Pension Plan. However, this
Program is only intended to remedy pension reductions caused by the operation of
section 401(a)(17) and not reductions caused for any other reason. In those
instances where pension benefits are reduced for some other reason, the term
"Pension Plan Benefits" shall be deemed to mean the benefits that actually would
have been payable but for such other reason.

Examples of such other reasons include, but are not limited to, the following:

(a)
A reduction in pension benefits as a result of a distress termination (as
described in ERISA § 4041(c) or any comparable successor provision of law) of a
Pension Plan. In such a case, the Pension Plan Benefits will be deemed to refer
to the payments that would have been made from the Pension Plan had it
terminated on a fully funded basis as a standard termination (as described in
ERISA § 4041(b) or any comparable successor provision of law).

(b)
A reduction of accrued benefits as permitted under Code section 412(c)(8), as
amended, or any comparable successor provision of law.

- 5 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

(c)
A reduction of pension benefits as a result of payment of all or a portion of a
Participant's benefits to a third party on behalf of or with respect to a
Participant.

B.07
ISA Excess Plan Participants.

(a)
Background. Effective as of the ISA Eligibility Date, all liabilities for
benefits accrued after that date under the Northrop Grumman Integrated Systems &
Aerostructures (ISA) Sector ERISA Excess Plan (the "ISA Plan") are transferred
to this Plan. This Section describes the treatment of those liabilities
("Transferred Liabilities") and the Participants to whom those liabilities
relate ("Transferred Participants").

The "ISA Eligibility Date" is July 1, 2000.

(b)
Transferred Participants. This Section B.07 applies only to employees who: (1)
were active participants in the ISA Plan as of the day before the ISA
Eligibility Date; and (2) accrued a benefit under the terms of the ISA Plan on
or after the ISA Eligibility Date.

(c)
Treatment of Transferred Liabilities. The Transferred Liabilities consist of any
post-ISA Eligibility Date accruals under Article III of the ISA Plan. Those
liabilities are treated as if they were accrued under Section B.03 of this Plan.
Other provisions of this Plan govern as provided below.

(d)
Distributions. Distributions of benefits attributable to the Transferred
Liabilities are generally made under Articles II and III of this Plan.

(e)
Other Provisions. The Transferred Liabilities and the Transferred Participants
are fully subject to Articles I-III and Appendix B of this Plan. The amount of
the Transferred Liabilities is, however, determined under Article III of the ISA
Plan.

B.08
Grumman Excess Plan Spinoff.

(a)
Background. Effective as of the Grumman Spinoff Date, all liabilities for
benefits accrued by Transferred Participants under the Northrop Grumman Excess
Plan for the Grumman Pension Plan (the "Grumman Plan") were transferred to this
Plan. This Section describes the treatment of those liabilities ("Transferred
Liabilities") under this Plan.

The "Grumman Spinoff Date" is July 1, 2003.

(b)
Treatment of Transferred Liabilities. The Transferred Liabilities will generally
be treated under the Plan like any other benefits under B.03.

(c)
Transferred Participants. The "Transferred Participants" are active employees
who were eligible to participate in the Grumman Plan as of June 30, 2003.
Grumman Plan benefits of individuals who terminated employment before July 1,
2003

- 6 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

remain subject to the Grumman Plan, and this Plan assumes no liabilities for
those benefits.

(d)
Distributions. Distributions of amounts corresponding to the Transferred
Liabilities will generally be made under Articles II and III.

(e)
Other Provisions. The Transferred Liabilities and the Transferred Participants
are fully subject to Articles I-III and Appendix B.

B.09
Liabilities Transferred to HII. Northrop Grumman Corporation distributed its
interest in Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc. ("HII") to its shareholders on
March 31, 2011 (the "HII Distribution Date"). Pursuant to an agreement between
Northrop Grumman Corporation and HII, on the HII Distribution Date certain
employees and former employees of HII ceased to participate in the Program and
the liabilities for these participants" benefits under the Program were
transferred to HII. On and after the HII Distribution Date, the Company and the
Program, and any successors thereto, shall have no further obligation or
liability to any such participant with respect to any benefit, amount, or right
due under the Program.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Plan is hereby executed by a duly authorized officer on
this 13th day of December, 2013.

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

ARTICLE II
Eligibility for and Amount of Benefits
2.01
Purpose. The purpose of this Plan is simply to restore to employees of the
Company the benefits they lose under the Pension Plans as a result of the
benefit limits in Code section 415, as amended, or any successor section
(“section 415”), as the benefit limits are described in the applicable Pension
Plan.

2.02
Eligibility. Each Participant is eligible to receive a benefit under this Plan
if:

(a)
he or she has vested in benefits under one or more of the Pension Plans;

(b)
he or she has vested benefits reduced because of the application of section 415;

(c)
he or she is not eligible to receive a benefit under the Northrop Corporation
Supplemental Retirement Income Program for Senior Executives or any other plan
or program which bars an employee from participation in this Plan; and

(d)
he or she is not a “Participant” in the Charles H. Noski Executive Retirement
Plan as that term is defined under that plan.

2.03
Amount of Benefit. The benefit payable from the Company under this Plan to a
Participant will equal the retirement benefit, if any, which would have been
payable to the Participant under the terms of a Pension Plan but for the
restrictions of section 415 (as described in the applicable Pension Plan).

The benefit payable under this Plan will be reduced by the amount of Pension
Plan Benefits attributable to the applicable Pension Plan.
Benefits under this Plan will only be paid to supplement benefit payments
actually made from a Pension Plan. If benefits are not payable under a Pension
Plan because the Participant has failed to vest or for any other reason, no
payments will be made under this Plan with respect to such Pension Plan.
In no event, however, (1) will this Plan pay any amount of a Participant's
retirement benefit, if any, attributable to the “2000 Ad Hoc Increase for
Retirees” Appendix added to certain of the Company’s tax-qualified plans
pursuant to the Board of Directors resolution adopted May 17, 2000, or (2) will
a Participant be entitled to a benefit (or an increased benefit) from or as a
result of participation in this Plan under the Board of Directors resolution
adopted May 17, 2000.
The following shall not be considered as compensation for purposes of
determining the amount of any benefit under the Plan:
(1)
any payment authorized by the Compensation Committee that is (a) calculated
pursuant to the method for determining a bonus amount under the Annual Incentive
Plan (AIP) for a given year, and (b) paid in lieu of such bonus in the year
prior to the year the bonus would otherwise be paid under the AIP, and

(2)
any award payment under the Northrop Grumman Long-Term Incentive Cash Plan.

2.04
Preretirement Surviving Spouse Benefit. This Section only applies to
Grandfathered Amounts.

- 3 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

Preretirement surviving spouse benefits will be payable under this Plan on
behalf of a Participant if such Participant’s surviving spouse is eligible for
preretirement surviving spouse benefits payable from a Pension Plan. The benefit
payable will be the amount which would have been payable under the Pension Plan
but for the restrictions of section 415 (as described in the applicable Pension
Plan).
The benefit payable under this Plan will be reduced by the amount of Pension
Plan Benefits attributable to the applicable Pension Plan.
No benefit will be payable under this Plan with respect to a spouse after the
death of that spouse.
See Appendix A and Appendix B for the rules that apply to other benefits earned
under the Plan.
2.05
Forms and Times of Benefit Payments. This Section only applies to Grandfathered
Amounts.

The Company will determine the form and timing of benefit payments in its sole
discretion. However, for payments made to supplement those of a particular
Pension Plan, the Company will only select among the options available under
that Pension Plan, and using the same actuarial adjustments used in that Pension
Plan except in cases of lump sums.
Whenever the present value of the amount payable under the Plan does not exceed
$10,000, it will be paid in the form of a single lump sum as of the first of the
month following Termination of Employment. The lump sum will be calculated using
the factors and methodology described in Section 3.08 below. (See Section 2.09
for the rule that applies as of January 1, 2008).
No payments will commence under this Plan until a Participant has a Termination
of Employment, even in cases where benefits have commenced under a Pension Plan
for Participants over age 70-1/2.
See Appendix A and Appendix B for the rules that apply to other benefits earned
under the Plan.
2.06
Beneficiaries and Spouses. This Section only applies to Grandfathered Amounts.

If the Company selects a form of payment which includes a survivor benefit, the
Participant may make a beneficiary designation, which may be changed at any time
prior to commencement of benefits. A beneficiary designation must be in writing
and will be effective only when received by the Company.
If a Participant is married on the date his or her benefits are scheduled to
commence, his or her beneficiary will be his or her spouse unless some other
beneficiary is named with spousal consent. Spousal consent, to be effective,
must be submitted in writing before benefits commence and must be witnessed by a
Plan representative or notary public. No spousal consent is necessary if the
Company determines that there is no spouse or that the spouse cannot be found.
The Participant’s spouse will be the spouse as determined under the underlying
Pension Plan.

- 4 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

See Appendix A and Appendix B for the rules that apply to other benefits earned
under the Plan.
2.07
Plan Termination. No further benefits may be earned under this Plan with respect
to a particular Pension Plan after the termination of such Pension Plan.

2.08
Pension Plan Benefits. The term “Pension Plan Benefits” generally means the
benefits actually payable to a Participant, spouse, beneficiary or contingent
annuitant under a Pension Plan. However, this Plan is only intended to remedy
pension reductions caused by the operation of section 415 and not reductions
caused for any other reason. In those instances where pension benefits are
reduced for some other reason, the term “Pension Plan Benefits” shall be deemed
to mean the benefits that would have been actually payable but for such other
reason.

Examples of such other reasons include, but are not limited to, the following:
(a)
A reduction in pension benefits as a result of a distress termination (as
described in ERISA § 4041(c) or any comparable successor provision of law) of a
Pension Plan. In such a case, the Pension Plan Benefits will be deemed to refer
to the payments that would have been made from the Pension Plan had it
terminated on a fully funded basis as a standard termination (as described in
ERISA § 4041(b) or any comparable successor provision of law).

(b)
A reduction of accrued benefits as permitted under Code section 412(c)(8), as
amended, or any comparable successor provision of law.

(c)
A reduction of pension benefits as a result of payment of all or a portion of a
Participant’s benefits to a third party on behalf of or with respect to a
Participant.

2.09
Mandatory Cashout. Notwithstanding any other provisions in the Plan,
Participants with Grandfathered Amounts who have not commenced payment of such
benefits prior to January 1, 2008 will be subject to the following rules:

(a)
Post-2007 Terminations. Participants who have a Termination of Employment after
2007 will receive a lump sum distribution of the present value of their
Grandfathered Amounts within two months of Termination of Employment (without
interest), if such present value is below the Code section 402(g) limit in
effect at the Termination of Employment.

(b)
Pre-2008 Terminations. Participants who had a Termination of Employment before
2008 will receive a lump sum distribution of the present value of their
Grandfathered Amounts within two months of the time they commence payment of
their underlying qualified pension plan benefits (without interest), if such
present value is below the Code section 402(g) limit in effect at the time such
payments commence.

For purposes of calculating present values under this Section, the actual
assumptions and calculation procedures for lump sum distributions under the
Northrop Grumman Pension Plan shall be used.

- 5 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

2.10
Optional Payment Forms. Participants with Grandfathered Amounts shall be
permitted to elect (a) or (b) below:

(a)
To receive their Grandfathered Amounts in any form of distribution available
under the Plan at October 3, 2004, provided that form remains available under
the underlying qualified pension plan at the time payment of the Grandfathered
Amounts commences. The conversion factors for these distribution forms will be
based on the factors or basis in effect under this Plan on October 3, 2004.

(b)
To receive their Grandfathered Amounts in any life annuity form not included in
(a) above but included in the underlying qualified pension plan distribution
options at the time payment of the Grandfathered Amounts commences. The
conversion factors will be based on the following actuarial assumptions:

Interest Rate:        6%

Mortality Table:
RP-2000 Mortality Table projected 15 years for future standardized cash balance
factors

2.11
Special Tax Distribution. On the date a Participant's retirement benefit is
reasonably ascertainable within the meaning of IRS regulations under Code
section 3121(v)(2), an amount equal to the Participant's portion of the FICA tax
withholding will be distributed in a single lump sum payment. This payment will
be based on all benefits under the Plan, including Grandfathered Amounts. This
payment will reduce the Participant's future benefit payments under the Plan on
an actuarial basis.

ARTICLE III
Lump Sum Election
This Article only applies with respect to Grandfathered Amounts. See Appendix A
and Appendix B for the distribution rules that apply to other benefits earned
under the Plan.
3.01
In General. This Article sets forth the rules under which Participants may elect
to receive their benefits in a lump sum. Except as provided in Section 3.08,
this Article does not apply to active employees (as defined in Section 3.04) in
cases where benefits are automatically payable in lump sum form under Article
II.

3.02
Retirees Election. Participants and Participants’ beneficiaries already
receiving monthly benefits under the Plan at its inception will be given a
one-time opportunity to elect a lump sum payout of future benefit payments.

(a)
The election must be made within a 60-day period determined by the Company.
Within its discretion, the Company may delay the commencement of the 60-day
period in instances where the Company is unable to timely communicate with a
particular payee.

(b)
The determination as to whether a payee is already receiving monthly benefits
will be made at the beginning of the 60-day period.

- 6 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

(c)
An election to take a lump sum must be accompanied by a waiver of the existing
retiree medical benefits by those Participants (and their covered spouses or
surviving spouses) entitled either to have such benefits entirely paid for by
the Company or to receive such benefits as a result of their classification as
an employee under Executive Class Code II.

Following the waiver, waiving Participants (and covered spouses or surviving
spouses) will be entitled to the coverage offered to employees who are eligible
for Senior Executive Retirement Insurance Benefits in effect as of July 1, 1993.
(d)
If the person receiving payments as of the beginning of the 60-day period dies
prior to making a lump sum election, his or her beneficiary, if any, may not
make the lump sum election.

(e)
Elections to receive a lump sum (and waivers under (c)) must be made in writing
and must include spousal consent if the payee (whether the Participant or
beneficiary) is married. Elections and spousal consent must be witnessed by a
Plan representative or a notary public.

(f)
An election (with spousal consent, where required) to receive the lump sum made
at any time during the 60-day period will be irrevocable. If no proper election
has been made by the end of the 60-day period, payments will continue unchanged
in the monthly form that had previously been applicable.

3.03
Retirees Lump Sum. If a retired Participant or beneficiary makes a valid
election under Section 3.02 within the 60-day period, monthly payments will
continue in the previously applicable form for 12 months (assuming the payees
live that long).

(a)
As of the first of the 13th month, the present value of the remaining benefit
payments will be paid in a single lump sum to the Participant, if alive, or, if
not, to the beneficiary under the previously applicable form of payment.

(b)
No lump sum payment will be made if:

(1)
The Participant is receiving monthly benefit payments in a form that does not
provide for survivor benefits and the Participant dies before the time the lump
sum payment is due.

(2)
The Participant is receiving monthly benefit payments in a form that does
provide for survivor benefits but the Participant and the beneficiary die before
the time the lump sum payment is due.

(c)
The following rules apply where payment is being made in the form of a 10-year
certain and continuous life annuity option:

(1)
If the Participant is deceased at the commencement of the 60-day election
period, the surviving beneficiary may not make the election if there are less
than 13 months left in the 10-year certain period.

(2)
If the Participant elects the lump sum and dies prior to the first of the 13th
month:

- 7 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

(A)
if the 10-year certain period has already ended, all monthly payments will cease
at the Participant’s death and no lump sum payment will be made;

(B)
if the 10-year certain period ends after the Participant’s death and before the
beginning of the 13th month, monthly payments will end at the end of the 10-year
certain period and no lump sum payment will be made; and

(C)
if the 10-year certain period ends after the beginning of the 13th month,
monthly payments will continue through the 12th month, and a lump sum payment
will be made as of the first of the 13th month, equal to the present value of
the remaining benefit payments.

3.04
Actives Election. Active Participants may elect to have their benefits paid in
the form of a single lump sum under this Section.

(a)
A Participant is considered to be “Active” under this Section if he or she is
still employed by the Affiliated Companies on or after the beginning of the
initial 60-day period referred to in Section 3.02.

(b)
An election to take a lump sum may be made at any time during the 60-day period
prior to Termination of Employment and covers both—

(1)
Benefits payable to the Participant during his or her lifetime, and

(2)
Survivor benefits (if any) payable to the Participant’s beneficiary, including
preretirement death benefits (if any) payable to the Participant’s spouse.

(c)
An election does not become effective until the earlier of

(1)
the Participant’s Termination of Employment, or

(2)
the Participant’s death.

Before the election becomes effective, it may be revoked.
If a Participant does not have a Termination of Employment within 60 days after
making an election, the election will never take effect.
(d)
An election may only be made once. If it fails to become effective after 60 days
or is revoked before becoming effective, it cannot be made again at a later
time.

(e)
After a Participant has a Termination of Employment, no election can be made.

(f)
If a Participant dies before making a lump sum election, his or her spouse may
not make a lump sum election with respect to any benefits which may be due the
spouse.

(g)
Elections to receive a lump sum must be made in writing and must include spousal
consent if the Participant is married. Elections and spousal consent must be
witnessed by a Plan representative or a notary public.

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

3.05
Actives Lump Sum – Retirement Eligible. If a Participant with a valid lump sum
election in effect under Section 3.04 has a Termination of Employment after he
or she is entitled to commence benefits under the Pension Plans, payments will
be made in accordance with this Section.

(a)
Monthly benefit payments will be made for up to 12 months, commencing the first
of the month following Termination of Employment. Payments will be made:

(1)
in the case of a Participant who is not married on the date benefits are
scheduled to commence, based on a straight life annuity for the Participant’s
life and ceasing upon the Participant’s death should he or she die before the 12
months elapse, or

(2)
in the case of a Participant who is married on the date benefits are scheduled
to commence, based on a joint and survivor annuity form —

(A)
with the survivor benefit equal to 50% of the Participant’s benefit;

(B)
with the Participant’s spouse as the survivor annuitant;

(C)
determined by using the contingent annuitant option factors used to convert
straight life annuities to 50% joint and survivor annuities under the Northrop
Retirement Plan; and

(D)
with all payments ceasing upon the death of both the Participant and his or her
spouse should they die before the 12 months elapse.

(b)
As of the first of the 13th month, the present value of the remaining benefit
payments will be paid in a single lump sum. Payment of the lump sum will be made
to the Participant if he or she is still alive, or, if not, to his or her
surviving spouse, if any.

(c)
No lump sum payment will be made if:

(1)
The Participant is receiving monthly benefit payments in the form of a straight
life annuity and the Participant dies before the time the lump sum payment is
due.

(2)
The Participant is receiving monthly benefit payments in a joint and survivor
annuity form and the Participant and his or her spouse both die before the time
the lump sum payment is due.

(d)
A lump sum will be payable to a Participant’s spouse as of the first of the
month following the date of the Participant’s death, if:

(1)
the Participant dies after making a valid lump sum election but prior to
commencement of any benefits under this Plan;

(2)
the Participant is survived by a spouse who is entitled to a preretirement
surviving spouse benefit under this Plan; and

(3)
the spouse survives to the first of the month following the date of the
Participant’s death.

- 9 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

3.06
Actives Lump Sum – Not Retirement Eligible. If a Participant with a valid lump
sum election in effect under Section 3.04, has a Termination of Employment
before he or she is entitled to commence benefits under the Pension Plans,
payments will be made in accordance with this Section.

(a)
No monthly benefit payments will be made.

(b)
Following Termination of Employment, a single lump sum payment of the benefit
will be made on the first of the month following 12 months after the date of the
Participant’s Termination of Employment.

(c)
A lump sum will be payable to a Participant’s spouse as of the first of the
month following the date of the Participant’s death, if:

(1)
the Participant dies after making a valid lump sum election but prior to
commencement of any benefits under this Plan;

(2)
the Participant is survived by a spouse who is entitled to a preretirement
surviving spouse benefit under this Plan; and

(3)
the spouse survives to the first of the month following the date of the
Participant’s death.

(d)
No lump sum payment will be made if the Participant is unmarried at the time of
death and dies before the time the lump sum payment is due.

3.07
Lump Sums with CIC Severance Plan Election. A Participant who elects lump sum
payments of all his or her nonqualified benefits under the CIC Plans is entitled
to have his or her benefits paid as a lump sum calculated under the terms of the
applicable CIC Plan. Otherwise, benefit payments are governed by the general
provisions of this Article, which provide different rules for calculating the
amount of lump sum payments.

3.08
Calculation of Lump Sum. The factors to be used in calculating the lump sum are
as follows:

Interest: Whichever of the following two rates that produces the smaller lump
sum:
(1)
the discount rate used by the Company for purposes of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 87 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board as
disclosed in the Company’s annual report to shareholders for the year end
immediately preceding the date of distribution, or

(2)
the applicable interest rate that would be used to calculate a lump sum value
for the benefit under the Pension Plans.

Mortality: the applicable mortality table that would be used to calculate a lump
sum value for the benefit under the Northrop Grumman Retirement Plan.
Increase in Section 415 Limit: 4% per year.
Age: Age rounded to the nearest month on the date the lump sum is payable.

- 10 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

Variable Unit Values: Variable Unit Values are presumed not to increase for
future periods after the date the lump sum is payable.
The annuity to be converted to a lump sum will be the remaining annuity
currently payable to the Participant or his or her beneficiary at the time the
lump sum is due.
For example, assume a Participant is receiving benefit payments in the form of a
50% joint and survivor annuity.
If the Participant and the survivor annuitant are both still alive at the time
the lump sum payment is due, the present value calculation will be based on the
remaining benefits that would be paid to both the Participant and the survivor
in the annuity form.
If only the survivor is alive, the calculation will be based solely on the
remaining 50% survivor benefits that would be paid to the survivor.
If only the Participant is alive, the calculation will be based solely on the
remaining benefits that would be paid to the Participant.
In the case of a Participant who dies prior to commencement of benefits under
this Plan so that only a preretirement surviving spouse benefit (if any) is
payable, the lump sum will be based solely on the value of the preretirement
surviving spouse benefit.
In the case of a lump-sum under Section 3.07 (related to lump sums with a CIC
Severance Plan election), the lump-sum amount will be calculated as described in
that section and the rules of this Section 3.08 are not used.
3.09
Spousal Consent. Spousal consent, as required for elections as described above,
need not be obtained if the Company determines that there is no spouse or the
spouse cannot be located.

ARTICLE IV
Miscellaneous
4.01
Amendment and Plan Termination. The Company may, in its sole discretion,
terminate, suspend or amend this Plan at any time or from time to time, in whole
or in part for any reason. This includes the right to amend or eliminate any of
the provisions of the Plan with respect to lump sum distributions, including any
lump sum calculation factors, whether or not a Participant has already made a
lump sum election. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment or termination of
the Plan shall reduce the amount of a Participant's accrued benefit under the
Plan as of the date of such amendment or termination.

No amendment of the Plan shall apply to the Grandfathered Amounts, unless the
amendment specifically provides that it applies to such amounts. The purpose of
this restriction is to prevent a Plan amendment from resulting in an inadvertent
"material modification" to the Grandfathered Amounts.

The Company may, in its sole discretion, seek reimbursement from the Pension
Plans to the extent this Plan pays Pension Plan Benefits to which Participants
were entitled to or became entitled to under the Pension Plans.

- 11 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

4.02
Not an Employment Agreement. Nothing contained in this Plan gives any
Participant the right to be retained in the service of the Company, nor does it
interfere with the right of the Company to discharge or otherwise deal with
Participants without regard to the existence of this Plan.

4.03
Assignment of Benefits. A Participant, surviving spouse or beneficiary may not,
either voluntarily or involuntarily, assign, anticipate, alienate, commute,
sell, transfer, pledge or encumber any benefits to which he or she is or may
become entitled under the Plan, nor may Plan benefits be subject to attachment
or garnishment by any of their creditors or to legal process.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, all or a portion of a Participant's benefit may
be paid to another person as specified in a domestic relations order that the
plan administrator determines is qualified (a "Qualified Domestic Relations
Order"). For this purpose, a Qualified Domestic Relations Order means a
judgment, decree, or order (including the approval of a settlement agreement)
which is:
(1)    issued pursuant to a State's domestic relations law;
(2)
relates to the provision of child support, alimony payments or marital property
rights to a spouse, former spouse, child or other dependent of the Participant;

(3)
creates or recognizes the right of a spouse, former spouse, child or other
dependent of the Participant to receive all or a portion of the Participant's
benefits under the Plan; and

(4)
meets such other requirements established by the plan administrator.

The plan administrator shall determine whether any document received by it is a
Qualified Domestic Relations Order. In making this determination, the plan
administrator may consider the rules applicable to "domestic relations orders"
under Code section 414(p) and ERISA section 206(d), and such other rules and
procedures as it deems relevant.
4.04
Nonduplication of Benefits. This Section applies if, despite Section 4.03, with
respect to any Participant (or his or her beneficiaries), the Company is
required to make payments under this Plan to a person or entity other than the
payees described in the Plan. In such a case, any amounts due the Participant
(or his or her beneficiaries) under this Plan will be reduced by the actuarial
value of the payments required to be made to such other person or entity.

Actuarial value will be determined using the factors and methodology described
in Section 3.08 above (in the case of lump sums) and using the actuarial
assumptions in the underlying Pension Plan in all other cases.
In dividing a Participant’s benefit between the Participant and another person
or entity, consistent actuarial assumptions and methodologies will be used so
that there is no increased actuarial cost to the Company.
4.05
Funding. Participants have the status of general unsecured creditors of the
Company and the Plan constitutes a mere promise by the Company to make benefit
payments in the future. The Company may, but need not, fund benefits under the
Plan through a trust. If

- 12 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

it does so, any trust created by the Company and any assets held by the trust to
assist it in meeting its obligations under the Plan will conform to the terms of
the model trust, as described in Internal Revenue Service Revenue Procedure
92-64, but only to the extent required by Internal Revenue Service Revenue
Procedure 92-65. It is the intention of the Company and Participants that the
Plan be unfunded for tax purposes and for purposes of Title I of ERISA.
Any funding of benefits under this Plan will be in the Company’s sole
discretion. The Company may set and amend the terms under which it will fund and
may cease to fund at any time.
4.06
Construction. The Company shall have full discretionary authority to determine
eligibility and to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan, including the
power to remedy possible ambiguities, inconsistencies or omissions.

4.07
Governing Law. This Plan shall be governed by the law of the Commonwealth of
Virginia, except to the extent superseded by federal law.

4.08
Actions By Company and Claims Procedures. Any powers exercisable by the Company
under the Plan shall be utilized by written resolution adopted by the Board of
Directors or its delegate. The Board may by written resolution delegate any of
the Company’s powers under the Plan and any such delegations may provide for
subdelegations, also by written resolution.

The Company's standardized "Northrop Grumman Nonqualified Retirement Plans
Claims and Appeals Procedures" shall apply in handling claims and appeals under
this Plan.
4.09
Plan Representatives. Those authorized to act as Plan representatives will be
designated in writing by the Board of Directors or its delegate.

4.10
Number. The singular, where appearing in this Plan, will be deemed to include
the plural, unless the context clearly indicates the contrary.

4.11
2001 Reorganization. Effective as of the 2001 Reorganization Date in (d), the
corporate structure of Northrop Grumman Corporation and its affiliates was
modified. Effective as of the Litton Acquisition Date in (e), Litton Industries,
Inc. was acquired and became a subsidiary of the Northrop Grumman Corporation
(the “Litton Acquisition”).

(a)
The former Northrop Grumman Corporation was renamed Northrop Grumman Systems
Corporation. It became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the new parent of the
reorganized controlled group.

(b)
The new parent corporation resulting from the restructuring is called Northrop
Grumman Corporation. All references in this Plan to the former Northrop Grumman
Corporation and its Board of Directors now refer to the new parent corporation
bearing the same name and its Board of Directors.

(c)
As of the 2001 Reorganization Date, the new Northrop Grumman Corporation became
the sponsor of this Plan, and its Board of Directors assumed authority over this
Plan.

(d)
2001 Reorganization Date. The date as of which the corporate restructuring
described in (a) and (b) occurred.

Litton Acquisition Date. The date as of which the conditions for the completion
of the Litton Acquisition were satisfied in accordance with the “Amended and
Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger Among Northrop Grumman Corporation, Litton
Industries, Inc., NNG, Inc., and LII Acquisition Corp.

4.12
Liabilities Transferred to HII. Northrop Grumman Corporation distributed its
interest in Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc. ("HII) to its shareholders on
March 31, 2011 (the "HII Distribution Date"). Pursuant to an agreement between
Northrop Grumman Corporation and HII, on the HII Distribution Date certain
employees and former employees of HII ceased to participate in the Plan and the
liabilities for these participants' benefits under the Plan were transferred to
HII. On and after the HII Distribution Date, the Company and the Plan, and any
successors thereto, shall have no further obligation or liability to any such
participant with respect to any benefit, amount, or right due under the Plan.

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

APPENDIX A TO EXHIBIT 1
2005-2007 TRANSITION RULES
This Appendix A provides the distribution rules that apply to the portion of
benefits under the Plan subject to Code section 409A for Participants with
benefit commencement dates after January 1, 2005 and before January 1, 2008.
A.01
Election. Participants scheduled to commence payments during 2005 may elect to
receive both pre-2005 benefit accruals and 2005 benefit accruals in any optional
form of benefit available under the Plan as of December 31, 2004. Participants
electing optional forms of benefits under this provision will commence payments
on the Participant's selected benefit commencement date.

A.02
2005 Commencements. Pursuant to IRS Notice 2005-1, Q&A-19 & Q&A-20, Participants
commencing payments in 2005 from the Plan may elect a form of distribution from
among those available under the Plan on December 31, 2004, and benefit payments
shall begin at the time elected by the Participant.

(a)
Key Employees. A Key Employee Separating from Service on or after July 1, 2005,
with Plan distributions subject to Code section 409A scheduled to be paid in
2006 and within six months of his date of Separation from Service, shall have
such distributions delayed for six months from the Key Employee's date of
Separation from Service. The delayed distributions shall be paid as a single sum
with interest at the end of the six month period and Plan distributions will
resume as scheduled at such time. Interest shall be computed using the
retroactive annuity starting date rate in effect under the Northrop Grumman
Pension Plan on a month-by-month basis during such period (i.e., the rate may
change in the event the period spans two calendar years). Alternatively, the Key
Employee may elect under IRS Notice 2005-1, Q&A-20 to have such distributions
accelerated and paid in 2005 without the interest adjustment, provided, such
election is made in 2005.

(b)
Lump Sum Option. During 2005, a temporary immediate lump sum feature shall be
available as follows:

(i)
In order to elect a lump sum payment pursuant to IRS Notice 2005-1, Q&A-20, a
Participant must be an elected or appointed officer of the Company and eligible
to commence payments under the underlying qualified pension plan on or after
June 1, 2005 and on or before December 1, 2005;

(ii)
The lump sum payment shall be made in 2005 as soon as feasible after the
election; and

(iii)
Interest and mortality assumptions and methodology for calculating lump sum
amount shall be based on the Plan's procedures for calculating lump sums as of
December 31, 2004.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

EXHIBIT 10(l)(i)

A.03
2006 and 2007 Commencements. Pursuant to IRS transition relief, for all benefit
commencement dates in 2006 and 2007 (provided election is made in 2006 or 2007),
distribution of Plan benefits subject to Code section 409A shall begin 12 months
after the later of: (a) the Participant's benefit election date, or (b) the
underlying qualified pension plan benefit commencement date (as specified in the
Participant's benefit election form). Payments delayed during this 12-month
period will be paid at the end of the period with interest. Interest shall be
computed using the retroactive annuity starting date rate in effect under the
Northrop Grumman Pension Plan on a month-by-month basis during such period
(i.e., the rate may change in the event the period spans two calendar years).

- 2 -

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

APPENDIX B TO EXHIBIT 1

POST 2007 DISTRIBUTION OF 409A AMOUNTS

The provisions of this Appendix B shall apply only to the portion of benefits
under the Plan that are subject to Code section 409A with benefit commencement
dates on or after January 1, 2008. Distribution rules applicable to the
Grandfathered Amounts are set forth in Articles II and III, and Appendix A
addresses distributions of amounts subject to Code section 409A with benefit
commencement dates after January 1, 2005 and prior to January 1, 2008.
B.01
Time of Distribution. Subject to the special rules provided in this Appendix B,
distributions to a Participant of his vested retirement benefit shall commence
as of the Payment Date.

B.02
Special Rule for Key Employees. If a Participant is a Key Employee and age 55 or
older at his Separation from Service, distributions to the Participant shall
commence on the first day of the seventh month following the date of his
Separation from Service (or, if earlier, the date of the Participant's death).
Amounts otherwise payable to the Participant during such period of delay shall
be accumulated and paid on the first day of the seventh month following the
Participant's Separation from Service, along with interest on the delayed
payments. Interest shall be computed using the retroactive annuity starting date
rate in effect under the Northrop Grumman Pension Plan on a month-by-month basis
during such delay (i.e., the rate may change in the event the delay spans two
calendar years).

B.03
Forms of Distribution. Subject to the special rules provided in this Appendix B,
a Participant's vested retirement benefit shall be distributed in the form of a
single life annuity. However, a Participant may elect an optional form of
benefit up until the date payments commence or such earlier time as provided by
the Company. The optional forms of payment are:

(a)
50% joint and survivor annuity

(b)
75% joint and survivor annuity

(c)
100% joint and survivor annuity.

If a Participant is married on the date his payments commence and elects a joint
and survivor annuity, his survivor annuitant will be his spouse unless some
other survivor annuitant is named with spousal consent. Spousal consent, to be
effective, must be submitted in writing before the date his payments commence,
or such earlier time as provided by the Company, and must be witnessed by a Plan
representative or notary public. No spousal consent is necessary if the Company
determines that there is no spouse or that the spouse cannot be found.
B.04
Death. If a married Participant dies before the Payment Date, a death benefit
will be payable to the Participant's spouse commencing 90 days after the
Participant's death. The death benefit will be a single life annuity in an
amount equal to the survivor portion of a Participant's vested retirement
benefit based on a 100% joint and survivor annuity determined on the
Participant's date of death. This benefit is also payable to a Participant's
domestic partner who is properly registered with the Company in accordance with
procedures established by the Company.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

B.05
Actuarial Assumptions. Except as provided in Section B.06, all forms of payment
under this Appendix B shall be actuarially equivalent life annuity forms of
payment, and all conversions from one such form to another shall be based on the
following actuarial assumptions:

Interest Rate:
6%

Mortality Table:
RP-2000 Mortality Table projected 15 years for future standardized cash balance
factors

B.06
Accelerated Lump Sum Payouts.

(a)
Post-2007 Separations. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Appendix B, for
Participants who Separate from Service on or after January 1, 2008, if the
present value of (a) the vested portion of a Participant's retirement benefit
and (b) other vested amounts under nonaccount balance plans that are aggregated
with the retirement benefit under Code section 409A, determined on the first of
the month coincident with or following the date of his Separation from Service,
is less than or equal to $25,000, such benefit amount shall be distributed to
the Participant (or his spouse or domestic partner, if applicable) in a lump sum
payment. Subject to the special timing rule for Key Employees under Section
B.02, the lump sum payment shall be made within 90 days after the first of the
month coincident with or following the date of the Participant's Separation from
Service.

(b)
Pre-2008 Separations. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Appendix B, for
Participants who Separate from Service before January 1, 2008, if the present
value of (a) the vested portion of a Participant's retirement benefit and (b)
other vested amounts under nonaccount balance plans that are aggregated with the
retirement benefit under Code section 409A, determined on the first of the month
coincident with or following the date the Participant attains age 55, is less
than or equal to $25,000, such benefit amount shall be distributed to the
Participant (or his spouse or domestic partner, if applicable) in a lump sum
payment within 90 days after the first of the month coincident with or following
the date the Participant attains age 55, but no earlier that January 1, 2008.

(c)
Conflicts of Interest. The present value of a Participant's vested retirement
benefit shall also be payable in an immediate lump sum to the extent required
under conflict of interest rules for government service and permissible under
Code section 409A.

(d)
Present Value Calculation. The conversion of a Participant's retirement benefit
into a lump sum payment and the present value calculations under this Section
B.06 shall be based on the actuarial assumptions in effect under the Northrop
Grumman Pension Plan for purposes of calculating lump sum amounts, and will be
based on the Participant's immediate benefit if the Participant is 55 or older
at Separation from Service. Otherwise, the calculation will be based on the
benefit amount the Participant will be eligible to receive at age 55.

B.07
Effect of Early Taxation. If a Participant's benefits under the Plan are
includible in income pursuant to Code section 409A, the Company shall have the
discretion to accelerate the distribution of all or a portion of such includible
benefits to the Participant,

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

provided that the Participant shall not be given a direct or indirect election
as to whether such discretion is exercised.
B.08
Permitted Delays. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment to a Participant
under the Plan shall be delayed upon the Company's reasonable anticipation of
one or more of the following events:

(a)
The Company's deduction with respect to such payment would be eliminated by
application of Code section 162(m); or

(b)
The making of the payment would violate Federal securities laws or other
applicable law;

provided, that any payment delayed pursuant to this Section B.08 shall be paid
in accordance with Code section 409A.
