(Effective as of January 1, 2022)




The following summarizes the annual compensation of directors of L3Harris Technologies, Inc. (“L3Harris”) who are not employees of L3Harris (“Non-Employee Directors”), effective as of January 1, 2022.  Employee directors are not separately compensated for service as a director.


Annual Retainer


Cash Retainer


Non-Employee Directors receive annual cash retainers for service as follows:
•    Member of the Board – $140,000
•Lead Independent Director – $50,000
•Chair of Audit Committee – $30,000
•Chair of Committee other than Audit Committee – $20,000


Cash retainers are payable on a quarterly basis in arrears.  If a Non-Employee Director does not serve for the entire quarter as a member of the Board of Directors of L3Harris (the “Board”), Lead Independent Director or as Chair of a committee, as applicable, the cash retainers payable for such calendar quarter shall be pro-rated based on the period of the Non-Employee Director’s Board service during the calendar quarter.  The applicable cash retainers shall be paid in a lump sum within 60 days following the calendar quarter of the Board service.  The amounts set forth above for the cash retainers may be changed from time to time by a resolution duly adopted by the Board.  Any such duly adopted resolution shall be deemed to have amended this summary.


Equity Retainer


Non-Employee Directors receive an annual equity retainer in the form of Director Share Units granted under and subject to the provisions of the L3Harris Technologies, Inc. 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (Amended and Restated Effective as of August 28, 2020) or any successor plan (the “Equity Plan”).  The Director Share Units are denominated in shares of common stock of L3Harris (each, a “Share”) and granted on the date of L3Harris’ annual meeting of shareholders (“Annual Meeting”) each year.  The number of Director Share Units delivered to each Non-Employee Director will be determined by dividing $170,000 by the Fair Market Value (as defined under the Equity Plan) of a Share on the grant date, rounded down to the nearest whole Share.  The Director Share Units will generally be subject to cliff vesting on the one-year anniversary of the grant date, subject to the Non-Employee Director’s continued service and the terms of the applicable award agreement.  


If a Non-Employee Director commences service on the Board following the annual grant date of the Director Share Units, the Non-Employee Director will receive a prorated annual equity retainer, with such proration determined based on the period of the Non-Employee Director’s Board service during the year.
