Business disruptions could seriously affect our future sales and financial condition or increase
our costs and expenses.
Our business may be impacted by disruptions including, but not limited to, threats to physical security,
information technology attacks or failures, damaging weather or other acts of nature and pandemics or
other public health crises. Any of these disruptions could affect our internal operations or services
provided to customers, and could impact our sales, increase our expenses or adversely affect our
reputation or our stock price.

Item 2. Properties
We occupied approximately 86 million square feet of floor space on December 31, 2009 for
manufacturing, warehousing, engineering, administration and other productive uses, of which
approximately 96% was located in the United States.
The following table provides a summary of the floor space by business:
(Square feet in thousands) Owned Leased

Commercial Airplanes 35,412 5,266 40,678
Boeing Defense, Space & Security 30,356 9,554 207 40,117
Other** 4,134 653 4,787
Total 69,902 15,473 207 85,582
* Excludes rent-free space furnished by U.S. government landlord of 1,076 square feet.
** Other includes BCC; EO&T; Corporate Headquarters; and Boeing Shared Services Group.
At December 31, 2009, our segments occupied facilities at the following major locations that occupied
in excess of 74 million square feet of floor space:
ŠCommercial Airplanes – Greater Seattle, WA; North Charleston, SC
ŠBoeing Defense, Space & Security – Greater Los Angeles, CA; Greater Seattle, WA; Greater St.
Louis, MO; Philadelphia, PA; San Antonio, TX; Huntsville, AL; Mesa, AZ; Wichita, KS; Houston,
TX; and Greater Washington, DC
ŠOther – Chicago, IL and Greater Seattle, WA
Most runways and taxiways that we use are located on airport properties owned by others and are
used jointly with others. Our rights to use such facilities are provided for under long-term leases with
municipal, county or other government authorities. In addition, the U.S. government furnishes us
certain office space, installations and equipment at U.S. government bases for use in connection with
various contract activities.
We believe that our major properties are adequate for our present needs and, as supplemented by
planned improvements and construction, expect them to remain adequate for the foreseeable future.
