This amendment to the October 1, 2015 restatement of the Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc.

Effective as of October 1, 2015, unless otherwise indicated, the Plan is amended as follows:

I.    Section 1.08 of the Plan is amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“Section 1.08 “Catch-up Eligible Participant” means, with respect to a given tax year, each Participant who has attained age 50 or who will attain age 50 during such calendar year.”

II.    Section B1.05 of the Plan is amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“Section B1.05Vesting. Amounts allocated to ESOP Accounts vest on the same schedules (based on contribution type) as under thenon-ESOP component of the Plan. Qualifying Securities will be forfeited only after other assets in accordance with Treasury RegulationSection 54.4975-ll(d)(4).”

III.    Section B1.08 of the Plan is amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“Section B1.08Non-Allocation Rules. The ESOP is not expected to purchase Qualifying Securities in a transaction subject to Section 1042 of the Code, but if the Plan does purchase Qualifying Securitas in such a transaction, it will restrict allocations in accordance with Section 409(n) of the Code. No portion of the ESOP assets attributable to (or allocable in lieu of) Employer Stock acquired by the ESOP in a Section 1042 Sale may accrue (or be allocated directly or indirectly under any plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code maintained by any Controlled Group Member) (1) during the Nonallocation Period for the benefit of any Nonallocation Participant, or (2) for the benefit

of a25-percent Shareholder. For purposes of this Section B1.08, the capitalized terms set forth below have the following meanings:

(a) “Employer Stock” means employer securities (as defined in Section 409(1) of the Code) which are issued by a domestic C corporation that has no stock outstanding that is readily tradable on an established securities market, and were not received by the taxpayer in a distribution from a plan described in Section 401(a) of the Code, or a transfer pursuant to an option or other right to acquire stock to which Sections 83, 422, or 423 of the Code applied (or to which Sections 422 or 424 of the Code (as in effect on the day before the date of the enactment of the Revenue Reconciliation Act of 1990) applied).

(b) “Section 1042 Sale” means a sale of Employer Stock to the ESOP in a transaction to which Section 1042 of the Code (pertains to the nonrecognition of gain) applies.

(c) “Nonallocation Period” means the period beginning on the date of the Section 1042 Sale and ending on the later of the date that is ten years after the date of the Section 1042 Sale, or the date of the plan allocation attributable to the final payment of acquisition indebtedness incurred in connection with the Section 1042 Sale.

(d) “Nonallocation Participant” means any Participant who makes an election under Section 1042(a) of the Code with respect to Employer Stock and any Participant who is related to such Participant within the meaning of Section 267(b) of the Code. “Nonallocation Participant” does not include any Participant who is a lineal descendant of a Participant who makes an election under Section 1042 of the Code if the aggregate amount allocated for the benefit of all such lineal descendants during the Nonallocation Period does not exceed more than five percent of the Employer Stock (or amounts allocated in lieu thereof) held by the ESOP that is attributable to a Section 1042 Sale by any person related to such descendants (within the meaning of Section 267(c)(4) of the Code).

(e)“25-percent Shareholder” means a Participant who owns more than twenty-five percent of any class of outstanding stock of the Company or any Controlled Group Member.“25-percent Shareholder” also means a Participant who owns more than twenty-five percent of the total value of any class of outstanding stock of the Company or any Controlled Group Member. The rules of Section 318(a) of the Code, without regard to the employee trust exception in Section 318(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, are used to calculate the ownership percentage. This definition is applicable at any time during either theone-year period ending on the date of sale of such stock to the ESOP, or on the date as of which Employer Stock is allocated to Participants.”

IV.    A new Section B6.05 of the Plan is added as follows:

“Section B6.05Diversification Rights. At least three investment options other than Qualifying Securities shall be offered to Participants, which shall be diversified and have materially different risk and return characteristics. Participants shall have the opportunity to divestment and reinvestment at least quarterly as set forth in Treasury Regulation Section1.401(a)(35)-1.”

V.    Section B7.02 of the Plan is amended by deleting it in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

“Section B7.02Timing of Distributions. The distribution of the Vested portion of a Participant’s ESOP Account will be made at the same time as his or her distribution under the Plan, as soon as possible after the election of distribution; provided that, if the Participant elects the distribution will begin no later than one year after the close of the Plan Year in which the Participant separates from service by reason of the attainment of Normal Retirement Age, Total Disability, or death and no later than the close of the fifth Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the Participant separates from service for any reason other than the attainment of Normal Retirement Age, Total Disability, or death.

VI.    In all respects not amended, the Plan is hereby ratified and confirmed.
