Sincerely, BethE.Mooney April18,2018 DearFellowShareholder: On behalf of the Martin Marietta Board of Directors and executive officers, it is my pleasure to invite youtoour2018AnnualMeetingofShareholders. StrongFinancialPerformance 2017 was an exceptional year for Martin Marietta. We established several new financial records and demonstrated the earnings power of our strategically-positioned assets, driven by a more durable, construction-centric recovery. We delivered record revenues, profitability and earnings per diluted share for both the fourth quarter and full year 2017, building on the momentum created by record performance in prior years. And, as always, we achieved these results while remaining committed to thesafety,ethics,integrityandvaluesthatarethehallmarkofMartinMarietta. World-ClassSafetyPerformance Our 2017 safety performance was the best in Martin Marietta’s history. Through the hard work and focus of our employees, safety awareness has been elevated across the Company, yielding impressive results. Our employees know world-class safety performance is possible; and, importantly, 2017’s results demonstrate this goal is attainable. Specifically, half of our operating divisions exceeded the world-class Total Injury Incident Rate (TIIR) (i.e., a TIIR of 0.90 or lower), and company-wide, with a Lost Time Incident Rate (LTIR) of 0.13,webestedtheworld-classLTIRof0.20orlower. ShareholderEngagementandGovernance Our investor outreach in 2017 extended to 86 meetings with 296 investor groups, and conversations with most of our top 20 shareholders. We visited with our shareholders across the United States and in Toronto, Amsterdam, Brussels, The Hague, London, Edinburgh and Paris. We also issued our third Sustainability Report in 2017 - Building. Caring. Growing. - in response to our shareholders’ request that we share our story on the efforts and improvements we are making in this important aspect. From our world-class safety programs and performance, to our targeted and intentional support of education and health, and environmental programsthatensureoperationalexcellence,wehaveasolidfoundationandanexcitingopportunitytobuildupon. We also have a commitment to sound corporate governance and independent leadership in our boardroom. In this regard, we made several important changes to our corporate governance. First, our Board adopted a proxy access bylaw in response to the favorable advisory vote of a majority of our shareholders at our 2017 annual meeting of shareholders. Second, our Board adopted formal guidelinesandpoliciesrelatingtoStockOwnershipforBoardmembersandexecutiveofficers,HedgingandPledgingofStockforBoard membersandexecutiveofficers,andClawbacksforexecutiveofficers,whichyoucanreadmoreaboutintheattachedproxystatement.
