Filed by: Harris Corporation Commission File No. 1-3863 Pursuant to Rule 425 under the Securities Act of 1933 and deemed filed pursuant to Rule 14a-12 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Subject Company: L3 Technologies, Inc. Commission File No. 1-37975 Planning for Day 1 Readiness Where were you in 2015? More than half of you were Marketing and Communications team members at either Harris or Exelis and you likely remember the exciting challenges and great opportunities that came with the acquisition and integration. I believe we have similar opportunities ahead of us with the planned merger with L3. Before we combined with Exelis, our function was relatively siloed with multiple websites, intranets, social media sites, third party agencies, policies and procedures. The integration of Exelis brought us new talent, different ideas and inspired new levels of creativity in all of us. It offered us a rare chance to take a fresh look at how to drive efficiency and achieve impact. Building a single Harris value narrative brand and aligning our platforms and processes in trade shows, PR and digital marketing served to strengthen Harris’ voice, visual identity and reputation in an increasingly competitive market. To achieve this required change by all of us and took a lot of energy, ideas and perseverance. Together we have made an impact at Harris in just over three years. A quick scan of L3’s digital presence shows a company that has a larger geographic footprint and operates in a more decentralized manner than we do. This inevitably results in a greater fragmentation of communication channels including multiple websites, intranets and social media platforms. After working closely with the L3 team in the Integration Management Office (IMO) over the past few months, I can report that the marketing and communications team at L3 is as excited as we are about the opportunities ahead. Just like with Exelis, I expect the fusion of talent and ideas from both companies to inspire us to make an even greater impact to the company and the markets we serve. You have heard our CEO describe this merger as a transformational one, and change will be a part of the process. I ask everyone to be patient through the process and to lean forward and engage in the shaping of our new future. Our immediate goal for the IMO is Day 1 readiness. During this pre-close period, we are bound by certain regulatory requirements and we are sharing information consistent with those requirements. As we near the close of the merger, we expect to involve many of you in planning beyond Day 1. I welcome your ideas to improve communications, so feel free to email me with your suggestions or comments. My sincere thanks to all of you for your continued creativity and dedication to our company and our customers. Sincerely, Sandi Lee Vice President, Global Communications
