Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 5(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) Total amount includes 9,036 restricted stock rights granted under the Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc. 2011 Long-Term Incentive Stock Plan ("HII LTISP") on 3/31/2011, with 100% vesting on 3/31/2014.
(2) SEP units credited under the Huntington Ingalls Industries Savings Excess Plan (the "SEP Plan"), a non-qualified deferred compensation plan as of 3/31/2011. The value of each unit is based on the price of Issuer common stock, although share totals with respect to the SEP Plan are based upon unit accounting and therefore may reflect a decrease in units attributable to an individual though no disposition occurred.
(3) SEP units are payable in cash following termination of the Reporting Person's employment with the issuer.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, See Instruction 6 for procedure.
