NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation—The Consolidated Financial Statements included herein are unaudited, but in the opinion of management, such financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to summarize fairly the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim period. The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements include the consolidated results of Tyco International Ltd., a corporation organized under the laws of Switzerland, and its subsidiaries (Tyco and all its subsidiaries, hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Company" or "Tyco"). The Financial Statements have been prepared in United States dollars ("USD") and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The results reported in these Consolidated Financial Statements should not be taken as indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011 (the "2011 Form 10-K").

References to 2012 and 2011 are to Tyco's fiscal quarters ending December 30, 2011 and December 24, 2010, respectively, unless otherwise indicated.

The Company has a 52 or 53-week fiscal year that ends on the last Friday in September. Fiscal year 2012 will be a 52-week, whereas fiscal 2011 was a 53-week year.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements—In June 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for the presentation of comprehensive income. The guidance amended the reporting of Other Comprehensive Income ("OCI") by eliminating the option to present OCI as part of the Consolidated Statement of Shareholder's Equity. The amendment will not impact the accounting for OCI, but only its presentation in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. The guidance requires that items of net income and OCI be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements which include total net income and its components, consecutively followed by total OCI and its components to arrive at total comprehensive income. In December 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance to defer the effective date for those aspects of the guidance relating to the presentation of reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The guidance must be applied retrospectively and is effective for Tyco in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the timing of its adoption of the guidance.

In September 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which expanded and enhanced the existing disclosure requirements related to multi-employer pension and other postretirement benefit plans. The amendments require additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures to provide more detailed information regarding these plans including, the significant multi-employer plans in which the Company participates, the level of the Company's participation and contributions with respect to such plans, the financial health of such plans and an indication of their funded status. These disclosures are intended to provide users of financial statements with a better understanding of the employer's involvement in multi-employer and other postretirement benefit plans. The guidance must be applied retrospectively and is effective for Tyco for the fiscal 2012 annual period, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the timing of its adoption of the guidance along with what impact, if any, the guidance will have on its annual disclosures.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)

1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

In September 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which amends the process of testing goodwill for impairment. The guidance permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not (defined as having a likelihood of more than fifty percent) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, performing the traditional two step goodwill impairment test is unnecessary. If an entity concludes otherwise, it would be required to perform the first step of the two step goodwill impairment test. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then the entity is required to perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test. However, an entity has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment in any period and proceed directly to step one of the impairment test. The guidance is effective for Tyco for interim and annual impairment testing beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the timing of its adoption of the guidance.

2. 2012 Separation Transaction

On September 19, 2011, the Company announced that its Board of Directors ("the Board") approved a plan to separate the Company into three separate, publicly traded companies consisting of the Company's North American residential security business, its flow control business, and its commercial fire and security business ("the 2012 Separation"). The 2012 Separation is expected to be completed by the end of the third calendar quarter of 2012 through a tax-free pro rata distribution of all of the equity interest in the flow control and North American residential security businesses.

Completion of the proposed separation is subject to certain conditions, including final approval by the Board and shareholders, receipt of tax opinions and rulings and the filing and effectiveness of registration statements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). The 2012 Separation will also be subject to the completion of any necessary financing.

During the quarter ended December 30, 2011, the Company incurred $32 million of charges within separation costs in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations, primarily related to professional fees. The Company also incurred $23 million and $2 million of asset impairment charges and restructuring charges, respectively, related to the 2012 Separation which are recorded within restructuring, asset impairments and divestiture charges (gains), net in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations. See Note 4.

3. Divestitures

The Company has continued to assess the strategic fit of its various businesses and has pursued divestiture of certain businesses which do not align with its long-term strategy.

Fiscal 2012

During the quarter ended December 30, 2011, there were no businesses divested by the Company.

Fiscal 2011

On November 9, 2010, the Company announced that it entered into an investment agreement (the "Agreement") to sell a majority interest in its Electrical and Metal Products business to an affiliate of

3. Divestitures (Continued)

the private equity firm Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC (the "Investor"). The Company formed a newly incorporated holding company, Atkore International Group Inc. ("Atkore"), to hold the Company's Electrical and Metal Products business. On December 22, 2010, the transaction closed and the Investor acquired shares of a newly-created class of cumulative convertible preferred stock of Atkore (the "Preferred Stock"). The Preferred Stock initially represented 51% of the outstanding capital stock (on an as-converted basis) of Atkore. In connection with the closing, the Company received cash proceeds of approximately $713 million and recorded a gain of $259 million, which included $33 million of cumulative translation gain, during the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The gain on disposal is recorded within restructuring, asset impairment and divestiture charges (gains), net in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Tyco's retained ownership interest in Atkore is accounted for under the equity method of accounting and is recorded in other assets in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011. The Company's proportionate share of Atkore's net loss is recorded within other expense, net in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations. The company recorded an equity loss of $9 million for the quarter ended December 30, 2011 and nil for the quarter ended December 24, 2010.

Discontinued Operations

Fiscal 2012

During the quarter ended December 30, 2011, there were no businesses which met the criteria to be presented as discontinued operations.

Fiscal 2011

On September 30, 2010, the Company sold its European water business, which was part of the Company's Flow Control segment. The sale was completed for approximately $264 million in cash proceeds, net of $7 million of cash divested on sale, and a pre-tax gain of $173 million was recorded, which was largely exempt from tax. The gain was recorded in income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Net revenue, pre-tax loss from discontinued operations, pre-tax income on sale of discontinued operations, income tax benefit and income from discontinued operations, net of income taxes for the quarter ended December 24, 2010 are as follows ($ millions):

3. Divestitures (Continued)

Divestiture Charges (Gains), Net

During the quarters ended December 30, 2011 and December 24, 2010, the Company recorded nil and a net gain of $246 million, respectively, in restructuring, asset impairment and divestiture charges (gains), net in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations in connection with the divestiture and write-down to fair value less cost to sell of certain businesses that did not meet the criteria for discontinued operations. The net gain for the quarter ended December 24, 2010 includes a gain of $259 million which was subject to the settlement of working capital adjustments recognized in conjunction with the sale of a majority interest in the Company's Electrical and Metal Products business, as discussed above. The Company recorded approximately $11 million of working capital adjustments subsequent to the first quarter of fiscal 2011 that reduced the gain.

4. Restructuring and Asset Impairment Charges, Net

2009 and prior programs

The Company continues to maintain restructuring reserves related to programs initiated prior to fiscal 2011. The total amount of these reserves were $68 million and $79 million as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, respectively. The decrease in the reserves is primarily due to cash utilization. The aggregate remaining reserves primarily relate to facility exit costs for long-term non-cancelable lease obligations.

5. Acquisitions

Fiscal 2012

Acquisitions

During the quarter ended December 30, 2011, cash paid for acquisitions included in continuing operations totaled $95 million, which primarily related to the acquisition of Visonic Ltd. ("Visonic").

ADT Account Acquisitions

During the quarter ended December 30, 2011, the Company made cash payments of $170 million to acquire approximately 144,000 customer contracts for electronic security services in the Company's Tyco Security Solutions segment.

Acquisition and Integration Related Costs

Acquisition and integration costs are expensed as incurred. During the quarter ended December 30, 2011, the Company did not incur any material acquisition costs. During the quarter ended December 30, 2011, the Company incurred integration costs of $8 million, primarily in connection with its integration of Brink's Home Security, Inc. ("Broadview Security") into the Tyco Security Solutions segment. Such costs are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations for the quarter ended December 30, 2011.

During the quarter ended December 24, 2010, Tyco made cash payments of $133 million to acquire approximately 121,000 customer contracts for electronic security services in the Company's Tyco Security Solutions segment.

Acquisition and Integration Related Costs

During the quarter ended December 24, 2010, the Company did not incur any material acquisition costs. During the quarter ended December 24, 2010, the Company's Tyco Security Solutions segment incurred $5 million of integration costs in connection with the integration of Broadview Security. Such costs are recorded within selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations for the quarter ended December 24, 2010.

6. Income Taxes

The Company did not have a significant change to its unrecognized tax benefits during the quarter ended December 30, 2011.

Many of Tyco's uncertain tax positions relate to tax years that remain subject to audit by the taxing authorities in U.S. federal, state and local or foreign jurisdictions. Open tax years in significant jurisdictions are as follows:

Jurisdiction		Years Open To Audit

Australia			2004-2011
Canada			2002-2011
Germany			1998-2011
Italy			2004-2011
South Korea			2006-2011
Switzerland			2002-2011
United Kingdom			2000-2011
United States			1997-2011

Based on the current status of its income tax audits, the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that between $0 and $55 million in unrecognized tax benefits may be resolved in the next twelve months.

At each balance sheet date, management evaluates whether it is more likely than not that the Company's deferred tax assets will be realized and if sufficient future taxable income will be available by assessing current period and projected operating results and other pertinent data. As of December 30, 2011, the Company had recorded deferred tax assets of $1.4 billion, which is comprised of $2.8 billion gross deferred tax assets net of $1.4 billion valuation allowances.

Tax Sharing Agreement and Other Income Tax Matters

In connection with the spin-offs of Covidien and TE Connectivity ("the 2007 Separation"), Tyco entered into a Tax Sharing Agreement that generally governs Covidien's, TE Connectivity's and Tyco's respective rights, responsibilities, and obligations after the 2007 Separation with respect to taxes,

Table of Contents

TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)

6. Income Taxes (Continued)

including ordinary course of business taxes and taxes, if any, incurred as a result of any failure of the distribution of all of the shares of Covidien or TE Connectivity to qualify as a tax-free distribution for U.S. federal income tax purposes within the meaning of Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code ("the Code") or certain internal transactions undertaken in anticipation of the spin-offs to qualify for tax-favored treatment under the Code.

Under the Tax Sharing Agreement, Tyco shares responsibility for certain of its, Covidien's and TE Connectivity's income tax liabilities, which result in cash payments, based on a sharing formula for periods prior to and including June 29, 2007. More specifically, Tyco, Covidien and TE Connectivity share 27%, 42% and 31%, respectively, of shared income tax liabilities that arise from adjustments made by tax authorities to Tyco's, Covidien's and TE Connectivity's U.S. and certain non-U.S. income tax returns. The costs and expenses associated with the management of these shared tax liabilities are generally shared equally among the parties. In connection with the execution of the Tax Sharing Agreement, Tyco established a net receivable from Covidien and TE Connectivity representing the amount Tyco expected to receive for pre-2007 Separation uncertain tax positions, including amounts owed to the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"). As of both December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, respectively, the aggregate amount of the net receivable was $89 million, of which $73 million was included in other assets and $16 million was included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Tyco also established liabilities representing the fair market value of its share of Covidien's and TE Connectivity's estimated obligations, primarily to the IRS, for their pre-2007 Separation taxes covered by the Tax Sharing Agreement. As of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, Tyco had recorded $388 million and $387 million, respectively, in other liabilities, and $49 million and $49 million, respectively, in accrued and other current liabilities.

Tyco assesses the shared tax liabilities and related guaranteed liabilities at each reporting period. The receivable and liability were initially recognized with an offset to shareholders' equity in 2007. During both the quarters ended December 30, 2011 and December 24, 2010, Tyco recorded income of $1 million in accordance with the Tax Sharing Agreement. Tyco will provide payment to Covidien and TE Connectivity under the Tax Sharing Agreement as the shared income tax liabilities are settled. Settlement is expected to occur as the audit process by applicable taxing authorities is completed for the impacted years and cash payments are made. Due to the nature of the unresolved adjustments described in the next paragraph, the maximum amount of potential future payments under the Tax Sharing Agreement is not determinable. Such cash payments, when they occur, will reduce the guarantor liability as such payments represent an equivalent reduction of risk. Tyco also assesses the sufficiency of the Tax Sharing Agreement guarantee liability on a quarterly basis and will increase the liability when it is probable that cash payments expected to be made under the Tax Sharing Agreement exceed the recorded balance.

Tyco and its subsidiaries' income tax returns are examined periodically by various tax authorities. In connection with these examinations, tax authorities, including the IRS, have raised issues and proposed tax adjustments, in particular with respect to years preceding the 2007 Separation. The issues and proposed adjustments related to such years are generally subject to the sharing provisions of the Tax Sharing Agreement. Tyco is reviewing and contesting certain of the proposed tax adjustments. With respect to adjustments raised by the IRS, although the Company has resolved a substantial number of these adjustments, a few significant items are expected to remain open with respect to the audit of the 1997 through 2004 years. As of the date hereof, it is unlikely that Tyco will be able to resolve all the open items, which primarily involve the treatment of certain intercompany debt transactions during the

Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)

6. Income Taxes (Continued)

period, through the IRS appeals process. As a result, Tyco expects to litigate these matters once it receives the requisite statutory notices from the IRS, which is likely to occur within the next six months. The Company has assessed its obligations under the Tax Sharing Agreement, including with respect to the proposed civil fraud penalties discussed below, to determine that its recorded liability of $437 million is sufficient to cover the indemnifications made by the Company under such agreement. See Note 18. However, the ultimate resolution of these matters is uncertain and could result in a material adverse impact to the Company's financial position, results of operations, cash flows or the effective tax rate in future reporting periods.

In connection with the aforementioned audits, the IRS proposed civil fraud penalties against a prior subsidiary that was distributed to TE Connectivity in connection with the 2007 Separation. The penalties allegedly arise from actions of former executives taken in connection with intercompany transfers of stock of Simplex Technologies in 1998 and 1999. Based on statutory guidelines, the Company estimates the proposed penalties could range between $30 million and $50 million. This is a pre-2007 Separation tax liability that is covered by the provisions of the Tax Sharing Agreement.

In addition to dealing with pre-2007 Separation tax liabilities of each of the three entities party thereto, the Tax Sharing Agreement contains sharing provisions to address the contingency that the 2007 Separation itself, or internal transactions related to the 2007 Separation, may be deemed taxable by U.S. or non U.S. taxing authorities. In the event the 2007 Separation is determined to be taxable and such determination was the result of actions taken after the 2007 Separation by Tyco, Covidien or TE Connectivity, the party responsible for such failure would be responsible for all taxes imposed on each company as a result thereof. If such determination is not the result of actions taken by any of the three companies after the 2007 Separation, then Tyco, Covidien and TE Connectivity would be responsible for 27%, 42% and 31%, respectively, of any taxes imposed on any of the companies as a result of such determination. Such tax amounts could be significant. The Company is responsible for all of its own taxes that are not shared pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement's sharing formula. In addition, Covidien and TE Connectivity are responsible for their tax liabilities that are not subject to the Tax Sharing Agreement's sharing formula.

If any party to the Tax Sharing Agreement were to default in its obligation to another party to pay its share of the distribution taxes that arise as a result of no party's fault, each non-defaulting party would be required to pay, equally with any other non-defaulting party, the amounts in default. In addition, if another party to the Tax Sharing Agreement that is responsible for all or a portion of an income tax liability were to default in its payment of such liability to a taxing authority, the Company could be liable under applicable tax law for such liabilities and required to make additional tax payments. Accordingly, under certain circumstances, the Company may be obligated to pay amounts in excess of its agreed-upon share of Tyco's, Covidien's and TE Connectivity's tax liabilities. See Note 18.

Except for earnings that are currently distributed, no additional material provision has been made for U.S. or non-U.S. income taxes on the undistributed earnings of subsidiaries or for unrecognized deferred tax liabilities for temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries, since the earnings are expected to be permanently reinvested, the investments are essentially permanent in duration, or the Company has concluded that no additional tax liability will arise as a result of the distribution of such earnings. A liability could arise if amounts are distributed by such subsidiaries or if such subsidiaries are ultimately disposed. It is not practicable to estimate the additional income taxes

related to permanently reinvested earnings or the basis differences related to investments in subsidiaries.

Income from continuing operations attributable to Tyco common shareholders, giving effect to dilutive adjustments	$	333		469	$	0.71	$	490		492	$	1.00

The computation of diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended December 30, 2011 excludes the effect of the potential exercise of share options to purchase approximately 8 million shares because the effect would be anti-dilutive.

The computation of diluted earnings per share for the quarter ended December 24, 2010 excludes the effect of the potential exercise of share options to purchase approximately 13 million shares and excludes restricted stock units of approximately 1 million shares because the effect would be anti-dilutive.

8. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Annually, in the fiscal fourth quarter, and more frequently if triggering events occur, the Company tests goodwill for impairment by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying amount. Fair value for each reporting unit is determined utilizing a discounted cash flow analysis based on the Company's forecast cash flows discounted using an estimated weighted-average cost of capital of market participants. A market approach is utilized to corroborate the discounted cash flow analysis performed at each reporting unit. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, goodwill is considered potentially impaired. In determining fair value, management relies on and considers a number of factors, including operating results, business plans, economic projections, including expectations and assumptions regarding the timing and degree of any economic recovery, anticipated future cash flow, comparable market transactions (to the extent available), other market data and the Company's overall market capitalization.

Fair Value

The carrying amount of Tyco's debt subject to the fair value disclosure requirements as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011 was $4,081 million and $4,046 million, respectively. The Company has determined the fair value of such debt to be $4,709 million and $4,689 million as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, respectively. The Company utilizes various valuation methodologies to determine the fair value of its debt, which is primarily dependent on the type of market in which the Company's debt is traded. When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine the fair value of its debt that is traded in active markets. As of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, the fair value of the Company's debt which was actively traded was $4,674 million and $4,689 million, respectively. Additionally, the Company believes the carrying amount of its commercial paper of $35 million as of December 30, 2011, approximates fair value based on the short-term nature of such debt.

Commercial paper

During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, Tyco International Finance, S.A. ("TIFSA"), the Company's finance subsidiary, issued commercial paper to U.S. institutional accredited investors and qualified institutional buyers. Borrowings under the commercial paper program are available for general corporate purposes. As of December 30, 2011, TIFSA had $35 million of commercial paper outstanding, which bore interest at a weighted-average rate of 0.55%. As of September 30, 2011, TIFSA had no commercial paper outstanding.

Credit Facilities

The Company's committed revolving credit facilities totaled $1.5 billion as of December 30, 2011. These revolving credit facilities may be used for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes. As of December 30, 2011, there were no amounts drawn under the Company's revolving credit facilities, although the Company had dedicated $35 million of availability to backstop outstanding commercial paper. As of September 30, 2011, no amounts were drawn under the Company's revolving credit facilities. Interest under the revolving credit facilities is variable and is calculated by reference to LIBOR or an alternate base rate.

10. Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, investments, accounts payable, debt and derivative financial instruments. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated book value as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011. The fair value of derivative financial instruments was not material to any of the periods presented. See below for the fair value of investments and Note 9 for the fair value of debt.

Derivative Instruments

In the normal course of business, Tyco is exposed to market risk arising from changes in currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage exposures to foreign currency, interest rate and commodity price risks. The Company's objective for utilizing derivative financial instruments is to manage these risks using the most effective

Table of Contents

TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)

10. Financial Instruments (Continued)

methods to eliminate or reduce the impacts of these exposures. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

For derivative instruments that are designated and qualified as hedging instruments for accounting purposes, the Company documented and linked the relationships between the hedging instruments and hedged items. The Company also assessed and documented at the hedge's inception whether the derivatives used in hedging transactions were effective in offsetting changes in fair values associated with the hedged items. These hedges did not result in any hedge ineffectiveness for the quarters ended December 30, 2011 and December 24, 2010.

All derivative financial instruments are reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at fair value with changes in the fair value of the derivative financial instruments recognized currently in the Company's Statement of Operations, with the exception of net investment hedges for which changes in fair value are reported in the cumulative translation component of accumulated other comprehensive loss to the extent the hedges are effective. The ineffective portion of the hedge, if any, is recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The derivative financial instruments and impact of such changes in the fair value of the derivative financial instruments was not material to the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011 or Consolidated Statements of Operations and Statement of Cash Flows for the quarters ended December 30, 2011 and December 24, 2010.

Foreign Currency Exposures

The Company manages foreign currency exchange rate risk through the use of derivative financial instruments comprised principally of forward contracts on foreign currency which are not designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes. The objective of the derivative instruments is to minimize the income statement impact and potential variability in cash flows associated with intercompany loans and accounts receivable, accounts payable and forecasted transactions that are denominated in certain foreign currencies. As of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, the total gross notional amount of the Company's foreign exchange contracts was $352 million and $836 million, respectively.

The Company hedged net investments in certain foreign operations through the use of foreign exchange forward contracts during both the quarters ended December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011. The objective was to minimize the exposure to changes in the value of the foreign currency denominated net investment. As of the quarter ended December 30, 2011, the Company terminated its net investment hedge. Accordingly, the aggregate notional amount of these hedges was nil and $224 million as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, respectively. Changes in the fair value of forward contracts qualifying as net investment hedges are reported in cumulative translation component of accumulated other comprehensive loss to the extent the hedges are effective. The ineffective portion of the hedge was not material to the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations for the quarters ended December 30, 2011 and December 24, 2010. These contracts did not have a material impact to the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011.

Interest Rate Exposures

The Company manages interest rate risk through the use of interest rate swap transactions with financial institutions acting as principal counterparties, which are designated as fair value hedges for

Table of Contents

TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)

10. Financial Instruments (Continued)

accounting purposes. Since the third quarter of 2009, TIFSA has been entering into interest rate swap transactions with the objective of managing the exposure to interest rate risk by converting interest rates of fixed-rate debt to variable rates. In these contracts, TIFSA agrees with financial institutions acting as principal counterparties to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and floating interest amounts calculated on an agreed-upon notional principal amount. As of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, the total gross notional amount of the Company's interest rate swap contracts was $1.2 billion for both periods.

Commodity Exposures

During fiscal 2012 and 2011, the Company entered into commodity swaps for copper which are not designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes, and which did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Counterparty Credit Risk

The use of derivative financial instruments exposes the Company to counterparty credit risk. If the counterparty fails to perform, the Company is exposed to losses if the derivative is in an asset position. When the fair value of a derivative instrument is an asset, the counterparty has to pay the Company to settle the contract. This exposes the Company to credit risk. However, when the fair value of a derivative instrument is a liability, the Company has to pay the counterparty to settle the contract and therefore there is no counterparty credit risk. Tyco has established policies and procedures to limit the potential for counterparty credit risk, including establishing limits for credit exposure and continually assessing the creditworthiness of counterparties. As a matter of practice, the Company deals with major banks worldwide having long-term Standard & Poor's and Moody's credit ratings of A-/A3 or higher. To further reduce the risk of loss, the Company generally enters into International Swaps and Derivatives Association master agreements with substantially all of its counterparties. Master netting agreements provide protection in bankruptcy in certain circumstances and, in some cases, enable receivables and payables with the same counterparty to be offset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, providing for a more meaningful balance sheet presentation of credit exposure. The Company's derivative contracts do not contain any credit risk related contingent features and do not require collateral or other security to be furnished by the Company or the counterparties.

The Company's exposure to credit risk associated with its derivative instruments is measured on an individual counterparty basis, as well as by groups of counterparties that share similar attributes. As of December 30, 2011, the Company was exposed to industry concentration with financial institutions as well as risk of loss if an individual counterparty or issuer failed to perform its obligations under contractual terms. The maximum amount of loss that the Company would incur as of December 30, 2011 without giving consideration to the effects of legally enforceable master netting agreements was approximately $41 million.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Authoritative guidance for fair value measurements establishes a three-level hierarchy that ranks the quality and reliability of information used in developing fair value estimates. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data. In cases where two or more levels of inputs are used to determine fair value, a financial instrument's level

Table of Contents

TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)

10. Financial Instruments (Continued)

is determined based on the lowest level input that is considered significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are summarized as follows:

•: Level 1—inputs are based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities which are accessible as of the measurement date.
•: Level 2—inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations for the asset or liability that are derived principally from or corroborated by market data for which the primary inputs are observable, including forward interest rates, yield curves, credit risk and exchange rates.
•: Level 3—inputs for the valuations are unobservable and are based on management's estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques such as option pricing models and discounted cash flow models.

Investments

Investments primarily include cash equivalents, U.S. government obligations, U.S. government agency securities and corporate debt securities.

When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine the fair value of investment securities. Such investments are included in Level 1. When quoted market prices are not readily available, pricing determinations are made based on the results of market approach valuation models using observable market data such as recently reported trades, bid and offer information and benchmark securities. These investments are included in Level 2 and consist primarily of U.S. government agency securities and corporate debt securities.

Derivative Financial Instruments

As described above, under the caption "Derivative Instruments" derivative assets and liabilities consist principally of forward foreign currency exchange contracts and interest rate swaps. The fair values for these derivative financial instruments are derived from market approach pricing models that take into account the contractual terms and features of each instrument, forward foreign currency rates for the Company's foreign exchange contracts and yield curves for the Company's interest rate swaps existing at the end of the period. Valuations are adjusted to reflect creditworthiness of the counterparty for assets and the creditworthiness of the Company for liabilities. Such adjustments are based on observable market evidence and are categorized as Level 2 exposures. Derivative financial instruments are not presented in the following tables as the derivative financial instruments were not material to any of the periods presented.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The following tables present the Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, by level within the fair value

Other

The Company had $2.8 billion and $2.9 billion of intercompany loans designated as permanent in nature as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, respectively. For the quarters ended December 30, 2011 and December 24, 2010, the Company recorded $21 million of cumulative translation loss and $5 million of cumulative translation gain, respectively, through accumulated other comprehensive loss related to these loans.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

In connection with the 2007 Separation, the Company entered into a liability sharing agreement regarding certain legal actions that were pending against Tyco prior to the 2007 Separation. Under the Separation and Distribution Agreement, the Company, Covidien and TE Connectivity are jointly and severally liable for the full amount of any judgments resulting from the actions subject to the agreement, which generally relate to legacy matters that were not specific to the business operations of any of the companies. Substantially all of these legacy matters have been resolved. Additionally, at the time of the 2007 Separation, the Company, Covidien and TE Connectivity agreed to allocate responsibility for certain legacy tax claims pursuant to the same formula under the Tax Sharing Agreement. A number of the legacy tax claims remain outstanding. See Note 6.

Legacy Matters

Tyco is a party to several lawsuits involving disputes with former management, among which are affirmative cases brought by Tyco against Mr. Dennis L. Kozlowski, Mr. Mark Swartz and Mr. Frank Walsh Jr. In connection with these affirmative actions, Mr. Kozlowski, through counterclaims, and Mr. Swartz, through demand letters, are seeking an aggregate of approximately $140 million allegedly due in connection with their compensation and retention arrangements and under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA").

11. Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)

With respect to Mr. Kozlowski, on December 1, 2010, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York ruled in favor of several of the Company's affirmative claims against him before trial, while dismissing all of Mr. Kozlowski's counterclaims for pay and benefits after 1995. With respect to Mr. Swartz, on March 3, 2011, the same Court granted the Company's motion for summary judgment. The Court further ruled that issues related to damages will need to be resolved at trial. No trial date has been set. The Company expects Mr. Kozlowski to contest the decision against him. As a result, the Company has and will continue to maintain the reserve recorded in its Consolidated Balance Sheet for the amounts allegedly due under his compensation and retention arrangements and under ERISA until the appeals process is complete. With respect to Mr. Swartz, any claim which he could have brought against the Company for pay and benefits is time barred by applicable statutes of limitations. Because the statutes of limitations expired subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company will reverse the $50 million liability related to his pay and benefits during the second quarter of fiscal 2012. With respect to Mr. Kozlowski's compensation, the Company believes that its existing reserve is sufficient and that the ultimate resolution of the matter will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Tyco has also brought an action against Mr. Walsh in connection with the damages suffered by Tyco arising from Mr. Walsh's breach of his fiduciary duties to Tyco. In October 2010, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York denied Tyco's affirmative claims for recovery of damages against Mr. Walsh. In January 2012, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit reversed the District Court's ruling that Tyco's Board of Directors could ratify breaches of fiduciary duties owed by Mr. Walsh to Tyco's shareholders, and remanded the case to the District Court to resolve certain issues relating to consequential damages. This affirmative matter, and the affirmative matters against Messrs. Kozlowski and Swartz, are not subject to the liability sharing provisions of the Separation and Distribution Agreement. Separately, Mr. Walsh is pursuing a New York state court claim against the Company asserting his entitlement to indemnification. This action is subject to the liability sharing provisions of the Separation and Distribution Agreement.

Environmental Matters

Tyco is involved in various stages of investigation and cleanup related to environmental remediation matters at a number of sites. The ultimate cost of site cleanup is difficult to predict given the uncertainties regarding the extent of the required cleanup, the interpretation of applicable laws and regulations and alternative cleanup methods. As of December 30, 2011, Tyco concluded that it was probable that it would incur remedial costs in the range of approximately $37 million to $87 million. As of December 30, 2011, Tyco concluded that the best estimate within this range is approximately $58 million, of which $23 million is included in accrued and other current liabilities and $35 million is included in other liabilities in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet. In view of the Company's financial position and reserves for environmental matters, the Company believes that any potential payments of such estimated amounts will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Asbestos Matters

or distribution of industrial products that either contained asbestos or were attached to or used with asbestos-containing components manufactured by third-parties. Each case typically names between dozens to hundreds of corporate defendants. While the Company has observed an increase in the number of these lawsuits over the past several years, including lawsuits by plaintiffs with mesothelioma-related claims, a large percentage of these suits have not presented viable legal claims and, as a result, have been dismissed by the courts. The Company's strategy has been, and continues to be, to mount a vigorous defense aimed at having unsubstantiated suits dismissed, and, where appropriate, settling suits before trial. Although a large percentage of litigated suits have been dismissed, the Company cannot predict the extent to which it will be successful in resolving lawsuits in the future. As part of the Company's strategy, it has also entered into a cost-sharing agreement with an entity from which it acquired a business several decades ago. Under the agreement, insurance proceeds from policies that were purchased by the seller prior to its acquisition by the Company have been made available to the Company. To the extent there is insufficient insurance for claims subject to the agreement, the parties are required to share costs, although responsibility for such excess costs gradually transitions to the Company over the next nine to ten years. In 2022, the Company will ultimately be responsible for all excess costs if available insurance policies do not fully respond. While the Company expects that the insurance policies it has gained access to under the agreement will be sufficient to cover any increased liability resulting from this arrangement, it cannot predict whether this will be the case.

As of December 30, 2011, there were approximately 4,800 lawsuits pending against the Company, its subsidiaries or entities for which the Company has assumed responsibility. Each lawsuit typically includes several claims, and the Company has determined that there were approximately 5,900 claims outstanding as of December 30, 2011, which reflects the Company's current estimate of the number of viable claims made against it, its affiliates or entities for which it has assumed responsibility in connection with acquisitions or divestitures. This amount includes adjustments for claims that are not actively being prosecuted, identify incorrect defendants or are duplicative of other actions.

Annually, during the Company's third quarter, the Company performs an analysis with the assistance of outside counsel and other experts to update its estimated asbestos-related assets and liabilities. Due to a high degree of uncertainty regarding the pattern and length of time over which claims will be made and then settled or litigated, the Company uses multiple estimation methodologies based on varying scenarios of potential outcomes to estimate the range of loss. The Company's estimate of the liability and corresponding insurance recovery for pending and future claims and defense costs is predominantly based on claim experience over the past five years, and a projection which covers claims expected to be filed, including related defense costs, over the next seven years on an undiscounted basis. The Company has concluded that estimating the liability beyond the seven year period will not provide a reasonable estimate, as these uncertainties increase significantly as the projection period lengthens. The Company's estimate of asbestos-related insurance recoveries represents estimated amounts due to the Company for previously paid and settled claims and the probable reimbursements relating to its estimated liability for pending and future claims. In determining the amount of insurance recoverable, the Company considers a number of factors, including available insurance, allocation methodologies, solvency and creditworthiness of the insurers. On a quarterly basis, the Company re-evaluates the assumptions used to perform the annual analysis and records an expense as necessary to reflect changes in its estimated liability and related insurance asset. As of December 30, 2011, the Company's estimated net liability of $65 million was recorded within the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet as a liability for pending and future claims and

Table of Contents

TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)

11. Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)

related defense costs of $288 million, and separately as an asset for insurance recoveries of $223 million. Similarly, as of September 30, 2011, the Company's estimated net liability of $82 million was recorded within the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet as a liability for pending and future claims and related defense costs of $306 million, and separately as an asset for insurance recoveries of $224 million.

The amounts recorded by the Company for asbestos-related liabilities and insurance-related assets are based on currently available information as well as estimates and assumptions. Key variables and assumptions include the number and type of new claims that are filed each year, the average cost of resolution of claims, the resolution of coverage issues with insurance carriers, amount of insurance and the solvency risk with respect to the Company's insurance carriers. Furthermore, predictions with respect to these variables are subject to greater uncertainty in the later portion of the projection period. Other factors that may affect the Company's liability and cash payments for asbestos-related matters include uncertainties surrounding the litigation process from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and from case to case, reforms of state or federal tort legislation and the applicability of insurance policies among subsidiaries. The Company believes that its asbestos-related reserves as of December 30, 2011 are appropriate. However, actual liabilities or insurance recoveries could be significantly higher or lower than those recorded if assumptions used in the Company's calculations vary significantly from actual results.

Compliance Matters

As previously reported in the Company's periodic filings, the Company has received and responded to various allegations and other information that certain improper payments were made by the Company's subsidiaries and agents in recent years. The Company reported to the Department of Justice ("DOJ") and the SEC the investigative steps and remedial measures that it has taken in response to these and other allegations and its internal investigations. In 2005, the Company informed the DOJ and the SEC that it retained outside counsel to perform a Company-wide baseline review of its policies, controls and practices with respect to compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA"), and that it would continue to investigate and make periodic progress reports to these agencies. The Company has and will continue to communicate with the DOJ and SEC to provide updates on the baseline review and follow-up investigations, including, as appropriate, briefings concerning additional instances of potential improper conduct identified by the Company in the course of its ongoing compliance activities. The baseline review, which has been completed, has revealed that some business practices may not comply with Tyco and FCPA requirements, and in February 2010, the Company initiated discussions with the DOJ and SEC aimed at resolving these matters, which remain ongoing. Although the Company has recorded its best estimate of potential loss related to this matter, it is possible that this estimate may differ from the ultimate loss determined in connection with the resolution of this matter, as the Company may be required to pay material fines, consent to injunctions on future conduct, consent to the imposition of a compliance monitor, or suffer other criminal or civil penalties or adverse impacts, including being subject to lawsuits brought by private litigants, each of which may have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

subject to the liability sharing provisions of the Separation and Distribution Agreement, which assigned liabilities primarily related to the former Healthcare and Electronics businesses of the Company to Covidien and TE Connectivity, respectively, and provides that the Company will retain liabilities primarily related to its continuing operations. Any liabilities not primarily related to a particular segment will be shared equally among the Company, Covidien and TE Connectivity.

As previously disclosed, in early 2007 certain former subsidiaries in the Company's Flow Control business were charged, prior to their divestiture, by the German Federal Cartel Office ("FCO") with engaging in anti-competitive practices, in particular with regard to its hydrant, valve, street box and fittings business. The Company investigated this matter and determined that the conduct may have violated German competition law. The Company cooperated with the FCO in its investigation and settled the matter during the first fiscal quarter of 2012.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company concluded that its best estimate of probable loss for these compliance matters was $34 million in the aggregate, which the Company recorded as a liability in accrued and other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, and which remains unchanged in the first fiscal quarter of fiscal 2012. Due to the sharing provisions in the Separation and Distribution Agreement, the Company has also recorded receivables from Covidien and TE Connectivity related to certain of these compliance matters in other current assets in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 30, 2011.

ERISA Partial Withdrawal Liability Assessment and Demand

On June 8, 2007, SimplexGrinnell received a notice alleging that it had partially withdrawn from the National Automatic Sprinkler Industry Pension Fund (the "Fund"). Under Title IV of ERISA, if the Fund can prove that an employer completely or partially withdraws from a multi-employer pension plan such as the Fund, the employer is liable for withdrawal liability equal to its proportionate share of the plan's unfunded vested benefits. The alleged withdrawal results from a 1994 labor dispute between Grinnell Fire Protection Systems, SimplexGrinnell's predecessor, and Road Sprinkler Fitters Local Union No. 669.

ERISA requires that payment of withdrawal liability be made in full or in quarterly installments commencing upon receipt of a liability assessment from the plan. A plan's assessment of withdrawal liability generally may be challenged only in arbitration, and ERISA requires that quarterly payments must continue to be made during the pendency of the arbitration. If the employer prevails in arbitration (and any subsequent appeals), its quarterly withdrawal liability payments are refunded with interest. The Fund's total withdrawal liability assessment against SimplexGrinnell is approximately $25 million. The quarterly withdrawal liability payments are $1.1 million, $19.8 million of which has been cumulatively paid through December 30, 2011. While the ultimate outcome is uncertain, SimplexGrinnell believes that it has strong arguments that no withdrawal liability is owed to the Fund, and it plans to vigorously defend against the Fund's withdrawal liability assessment. The matter is currently in arbitration. The Company has made no provision for this contingency and believes that its quarterly payments are recoverable.

Broadview Security Contingency

On May 14, 2010, the Company acquired Broadview Security, which is a business that was formerly owned by The Brink's Company. Under the Coal Industry Retiree Health Benefit Act of 1992, as

Table of Contents

TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)

11. Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)

amended (the "Coal Act"), The Brink's Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries at July 20, 1992 (including certain legal entities acquired in the Broadview Security acquisition) are jointly and severally liable with certain of The Brink's Company's other current and former subsidiaries for health care coverage obligations provided for by the Coal Act. A Voluntary Employees' Beneficiary Associate ("VEBA") trust has been established by The Brink's Company to pay for these liabilities, although the trust may have insufficient funds to satisfy all future obligations. At the time of its spin-off from The Brink's Company, Broadview Security entered into an agreement in which The Brink's Company agreed to indemnify it for any and all liabilities and expenses related to The Brink's Company's former coal operations, including any health care coverage obligations. The Brink's Company has agreed that this indemnification survives the Company's acquisition of Broadview Security. The Company has evaluated its potential liability under the Coal Act as a contingency in light of all known facts, including the funding of the VEBA, and indemnification provided by The Brinks Company. The Company has concluded that no accrual is necessary due to the existence of the indemnification and its belief that The Brink's Company and VEBA will be able to satisfy all future obligations under the Coal Act.

ADT Dealer Litigation

As previously reported, in 2002, the SEC's Division of Enforcement conducted an investigation related to past accounting practices for dealer connect fees that ADT had charged to its authorized dealers upon purchasing customer accounts. The investigation related to accounting practices employed by the Company's former management, which were discontinued in 2003. Although the Company settled with the SEC in 2006, a number of former dealers and related parties have filed lawsuits against the Company in the United States and in other countries, including a class action lawsuit filed in the District Court of Arapahoe County, Colorado, alleging breach of contract and other claims related to ADT's decision to terminate certain authorized dealers in 2002 and 2003. In February 2010, the Court granted a directed verdict in ADT's favor dismissing a number of the plaintiffs' key claims. Upon appeal, the Colorado Court of Appeals affirmed the verdict in ADT's favor in October 2011. The plaintiffs have requested that the Supreme Court of Colorado hear an appeal of the Court of Appeals' decision. The Supreme Court has not yet ruled. Although the Company expects a favorable resolution of the class action lawsuit in Colorado, a number of claims related to the 2002 and 2003 decision to terminate certain authorized dealers outside the United States remain outstanding. While it is not possible at this time to predict the final outcome of the Colorado lawsuit or other lawsuits stemming from dealer terminations, the Company does not believe these claims will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Other Matters

In addition to the foregoing, the Company is subject to claims and suits, including from time to time, contractual disputes and product and general liability claims, incidental to present and former operations, acquisitions and dispositions. With respect to many of these claims, the Company either self-insures or maintains insurance through third-parties, with varying deductibles. While the ultimate outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company believes that the resolution of any such proceedings, whether the underlying claims are covered by insurance or not, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows beyond amounts recorded for such matters.

12. Retirement Plans

Defined Benefit Pension Plans—The Company sponsors a number of pension plans. The following disclosures exclude the impact of plans which are immaterial individually and in the aggregate. The net periodic benefit cost for the Company's material U.S. and non-U.S. defined benefit pension plans is as follows ($ in millions):

	U.S. Plans						Non-U.S. Plans

	For the Quarters Ended						For the Quarters Ended
	December 30, 2011			December 24, 2010			December 30, 2011			December 24, 2010
Service cost	$	1		$	3		$	4		$	5
Interest cost		10			11			17			17
Expected return on plan assets		(11	)		(13	)		(18	)		(18	)
Amortization of net actuarial loss		3			3			2			3

Net periodic benefit cost	$	3		$	4		$	5		$	7

The estimated net actuarial loss for U.S. pension benefit plans that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net periodic benefit cost over the current fiscal year is expected to be $14 million.

The estimated net actuarial loss for non-U.S. pension benefit plans that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net periodic benefit cost over the current fiscal year is expected to be $9 million.

The Company's funding policy is to make contributions in accordance with the laws and customs of the various countries in which it operates and to make discretionary voluntary contributions from time-to-time. The Company anticipates that it will contribute at least the minimum required to its pension plans in fiscal year 2012 of $44 million for U.S. plans and $66 million for non-U.S. plans. During the quarter ended December 30, 2011, the Company made required contributions of $3 million to its U.S. pension plans and $17 million to its non-U.S. pension plans.

Postretirement Benefit Plans—Net periodic postretirement benefit cost was insignificant for both periods.

13. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest

Noncontrolling interest with redemption features, such as put options, that are not solely within the Company's control are considered redeemable noncontrolling interests. The Company accretes changes in the redemption value through noncontrolling interest in subsidiaries net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest over the period from the date of issuance to the earliest redemption date. Redeemable noncontrolling interest is considered to be temporary equity and is therefore reported in the mezzanine section between liabilities and equity on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet at

the greater of the initial carrying amount increased or decreased for the noncontrolling interest's share of net income or loss or its redemption value.

The rollforward of redeemable noncontrolling interest from September 30, 2011 to December 30, 2011 is as follows:

Adjustments to redemption value		2

Balance as of December 30, 2011	$	94

14. Share Plans

During the quarter ended December 30, 2011, the Company issued its annual share-based compensation grants. The total number of awards issued was approximately 5.0 million, of which 3.4 million were share options, 1.1 million were restricted unit awards and 0.5 million were performance share unit awards. The options and restricted stock units vest in equal annual installments over a period of 4 years, and the performance share unit awards vest after a period of 3 years based on the level of attainment of the applicable performance metrics, which are determined by the Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Board. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of the share options, restricted unit awards and performance share unit awards was $12.45, $44.32 and $48.86, respectively. The weighted-average assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model included an expected stock price volatility of 36%, a risk free interest rate of 1.48%, an expected annual dividend per share of $1.00 and an expected option life of 5.8 years.

During the quarter ended December 24, 2010, the Company issued its annual share-based compensation grants. The total number of awards issued was approximately 5.9 million, of which 3.9 million were share options, 1.4 million were restricted unit awards and 0.6 million were performance share unit awards. The options and restricted stock units vest in equal annual installments over a period of 4 years, and the performance share unit awards vest after a period of 3 years based on the level of attainment of the applicable performance metrics, which are determined by the Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Board. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of the share options, restricted unit awards and performance share unit awards was $9.13, $37.29 and $41.17, respectively. The weighted-average assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model included an expected stock price volatility of 33%, a risk free interest rate of 1.26%, an expected annual dividend per share of $0.84 and an expected option life of 5.2 years.

15. Consolidated Segment Data

Segment information is consistent with how management reviews the businesses, makes investing and resource allocation decisions and assesses operating performance. The Company, from time to time, may realign business and management responsibility within its operating segments based on considerations such as opportunity for market or operating synergies and/or to more fully leverage existing capabilities and enhance development for future products and services.

18. Guarantees

Certain of the Company's business segments have guaranteed the performance of third-parties and provided financial guarantees for uncompleted work and financial commitments. The terms of these guarantees vary with end dates ranging from the current fiscal year through the completion of such transactions. The guarantees would typically be triggered in the event of nonperformance and performance under the guarantees, if required, would not have a material effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

There are certain guarantees or indemnifications extended among Tyco, Covidien and TE Connectivity in accordance with the terms of the Separation and Distribution Agreement and the Tax Sharing Agreement. The guarantees primarily relate to certain contingent tax liabilities included in the Tax Sharing Agreement. At the time of the 2007 Separation, Tyco recorded a liability necessary to recognize the fair value of such guarantees and indemnifications. In the absence of observable transactions for identical or similar guarantees, the Company determined the fair value of these guarantees and indemnifications utilizing expected present value measurement techniques. Significant assumptions utilized to determine fair value included determining a range of potential outcomes, assigning a probability weighting to each potential outcome and estimating the anticipated timing of resolution. The probability weighted outcomes were discounted using the Company's incremental borrowing rate. The liability necessary to reflect the fair value of guarantees and indemnifications under the Tax Sharing agreement was $437 million and $436 million on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, respectively. Of these amounts $49 million are included in accrued and other current liabilities and the remaining amounts in other liabilities as of both December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, respectively. The guarantees primarily relate to certain contingent tax liabilities included in the Tax Sharing Agreement. See Note 6.

18. Guarantees (Continued)

In addition, Tyco historically provided support in the form of financial and/or performance guarantees to various Covidien and TE Connectivity operating entities. In connection with the 2007 Separation, the Company worked with the guarantee counterparties to cancel or assign these guarantees to Covidien or TE Connectivity. To the extent these guarantees were not assigned prior to the 2007 Separation date, Tyco assumed primary liability on any remaining such support. The Company's obligations were $4 million, which were included in other liabilities on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, respectively, with an offset to shareholders' equity on the 2007 Separation date.

In disposing of assets or businesses, the Company often provides representations, warranties and/or indemnities to cover various risks including, for example, unknown damage to the assets, environmental risks involved in the sale of real estate, liability to investigate and remediate environmental contamination at waste disposal sites and manufacturing facilities and unidentified tax liabilities and legal fees related to periods prior to disposition. The Company has no reason to believe that these contingencies, if realized, associated with these risks would have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company has recorded liabilities for known indemnifications included as part of environmental liabilities. See Note 11.

In the normal course of business, the Company is liable for contract completion and product performance. In the opinion of management, such obligations will not significantly affect the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company records estimated product warranty costs at the time of sale. The changes in the carrying amount of the Company's warranty accrual from September 30, 2011 to December 30, 2011 were as follows ($ in millions):

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of the Company's financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included in this Quarterly Report. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The Company's actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including but not limited to those under the headings "Risk Factors" and "Forward-Looking Information."

Introduction

The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements include the consolidated results of Tyco International Ltd., a company organized under the laws of Switzerland, and its subsidiaries (hereinafter collectively referred to as "we", the "Company" or "Tyco"). The financial statements have been prepared in United States dollars ("USD"), in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP").

The Company operates in the following business segments:

•: Tyco Security Solutions designs, sells, installs, services and monitors electronic security, productivity and lifestyle enhancement systems for residential, commercial, industrial and governmental customers. In addition, Tyco Security Solutions designs, manufactures and sells security products including intrusion, security, access control, electronic article surveillance and video management systems.
•: Tyco Fire Protection designs, manufactures, sells, installs and services fire detection and fire suppression systems and building and life safety products for commercial, industrial and governmental customers.
•: Tyco Flow Control designs, manufactures, sells and services valves, pipes, fittings, valve automation and heat tracing products for general process, energy and mining markets as well as the water and wastewater markets.

On December 22, 2010, we sold a majority interest in our Electrical and Metal Products business, which was previously a separate reportable segment. We also provide general corporate services to our segments and these costs are reported as Corporate and Other.

The Company has a 52 or 53-week fiscal year that ends on the last Friday of September. Fiscal year 2012 will be a 52-week year, whereas fiscal year 2011 was a 53-week year.

Effective December 31, 2011, the Company has adjusted its management reporting structure to align it with the structure of the businesses expected to be spun off in 2012. As a result, beginning with the second fiscal quarter of 2012, the Company will realign certain business within our Tyco Security Solutions and Tyco Fire Protection segments to create two new reporting segments: ADT North American Residential and Commercial Fire and Security. Effective the second quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company will begin to report under the following segment structure: Commercial Fire and Security, ADT North American Residential and Flow Control.

Overview

Net revenue of $4.2 billion decreased $171 million, or 3.9%, for the quarter ended December 30, 2011 as compared to the quarter ended December 24, 2010. Increases in net revenue across all of our segments, were more than offset by a decrease of $347 million in net revenue resulting from the sale of

Table of Contents

a majority interest in our Electrical and Metal Products business. Additionally, net revenue was impacted by unfavorable changes in foreign currency exchange rates of $22 million, or 0.5%.

Service revenue, which is primarily recurring in nature, represented approximately 45% and 43% of our overall revenue for the quarters ended December 30, 2011 and December 24, 2010 respectively. Service revenue as a percentage of net revenue increased year over year primarily due to the divestiture of our Electrical and Metal Products business, which was primarily a non-service revenue business. Service revenues are principally derived from our Tyco Security Solutions and Tyco Fire Protection businesses, and represent a consistent source of revenue from monitoring and maintenance services under contractual agreements. Recurring revenue in our Tyco Security Solutions business grew to approximately 58% of Tyco Security Solutions' total revenue for the quarter ended December 30, 2011 as compared to approximately 57% for the quarter ended December 24, 2010. For the quarter ended December 30, 2011, non-service revenue was favorably impacted by an increase of $101 million, or 13.4%, at Tyco Flow Control compared to the prior year due to improvements in its Valves and Controls and Thermal Controls businesses driven by continued strength in the end markets served by these businesses, as well as strength in product sales in Tyco Security Solutions and Tyco Fire Protection. These increases were more than offset by the decrease in non-service revenue as a result of the divestiture of a majority interest in our Electrical and Metal Products business which was primarily a non-service revenue business as noted above.

Operating income for the quarter ended December 30, 2011 was $472 million compared to operating income of $706 million for the quarter December 24, 2010. The decrease in operating income of $234 million is primarily driven by a net gain on divestitures of $246 million for the quarter ended December 24, 2010 primarily due to the sale of a majority interest in the Electrical and Metal products business, as compared to nil for the quarter ended December 30, 2011. Operating income was favorably impacted by improved sales volumes across all of our businesses. Operating income for the quarter ended December 30, 2011 included restructuring and asset impairment charges of $37 million compared to $32 million for the quarter ended December 24, 2010; $32 million of separation costs compared with nil in the same period in the prior year; and acquisition and integration costs of $8 million compared to $5 million for the quarter ended December 24, 2010.

Our cash and cash equivalents balance was $1.0 billion and $1.4 billion as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011 respectively. We generated approximately $338 million of cash from operating activities and utilized $441 million of cash in investing activities and $271 million of cash in financing activities. During the quarter ended December 30, 2011, uses of cash primarily included $207 million of capital expenditures, $170 million to purchase customer contracts in our Tyco Security Solutions segment, $200 million to repurchase our common shares and $116 million to pay cash dividends.

Recent Transactions

On September 19, 2011, the Company announced that its Board of Directors ("the Board") approved a plan to separate the Company into three separate, publicly traded companies consisting of the Company's North American residential security business, its flow control business, and its commercial fire and security business ("the 2012 Separation"). The 2012 Separation is expected to be completed by the end of the third calendar quarter of 2012 through a tax-free pro rata distribution of all the equity interest in the flow control and North American residential security businesses.

In fiscal 2012, we continue to make investments that strategically fit within our three core businesses. On December 6, 2011, our Tyco Security Solutions segment completed the acquisition of

Visonic Ltd. ("Visonic"), a global developer and manufacturer of electrical security systems and components, for approximately $94 million, net of cash acquired of $5 million. The acquisition is expected to strengthen the wireless product and technology portfolio and market presence of the products business in the intrusion security market.

Tyco Security Solutions

Net Revenue

Net revenue for Tyco Security Solutions was as follows ($ in millions):

	For the Quarters Ended

	December 30, 2011		December 24, 2010		% Change

Total revenue from product sales		743		734		1.2	%

Net revenue	$	2,155	$	2,107		2.3	%

Net revenue for Tyco Security Solutions of $2.2 billion increased by $48 million, or 2.3%, during the quarter ended December 30, 2011, as compared to the quarter ended December 24, 2010, primarily due to incremental account growth in the recurring revenue business across all of the segment's regions, as well as continued growth of non-recurring revenue in Rest of World ("ROW"), partially offset by decline in North America and Europe, Middle East and Africa ("EMEA"). Additionally, net revenue was favorably impacted by increased sales in security products primarily driven by the acquisition of Visonic in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates unfavorably impacted revenues by $20 million, or 0.9%.

Recurring Net Revenue

Recurring revenue is generated from contractual monitoring and maintenance agreements that are long-term in nature, and is primarily driven by the addition or loss of customer accounts and average revenue per customer.

	As of

	December 30, 2011	September 30, 2011	December 24, 2010
Number of customer accounts⁽¹⁾	9.1 million	9.0 million	8.9 million
Trailing 52 week attrition⁽¹⁾⁽²⁾	12.4%	12.6%	12.7%
Average monthly revenue per customer⁽¹⁾	$45.57	$45.35	$45.17

⁽¹⁾: The number of customer accounts, attrition rates and average revenue per customer for all periods exclude the impact of divestitures.
⁽²⁾: Trailing 52 week attrition rates exclude the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Recurring net revenue increased by $43 million, or 3.6%, to approximately $1.2 billion during the quarter ended December 30, 2011 compared to the quarter ended December 24, 2010, primarily due to continued strength in North America and ROW driving a 2.2% increase in the customer account base to 9.1 million customers. Revenue was also favorably impacted by the net impact of acquisitions and divestitures of $9 million, or 0.8%, primarily relating to the acquisition of Signature Security Group

Table of Contents

during the third quarter of fiscal 2011. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates unfavorably impacted recurring net revenue by $13 million, or 1.1%. The $0.40 increase in the average monthly revenue per customer from December 24, 2010 to December 30, 2011 was due to higher average monthly revenue associated with new account growth, net of attrition, across North America and ROW, partially offset by unfavorable impacts in foreign currency exchange rates.

Non-Recurring Net Revenue

Non-recurring revenue is generated from product sales (including sales and installation of electronic security and retailer anti-theft systems, as well as other life safety systems) and from services such as the provisioning of armored guards and one-time repair, security system upgrades or inspection jobs. Non-recurring net revenue increased by $5 million, or 0.6%, to $913 million in the quarter ended December 30, 2011 driven by strength in ROW as well as the introduction of new product lines. Net revenue was also favorably impacted by the net impact of acquisitions and divestitures of $4 million, or 0.4%, including the acquisition of Visonic. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates unfavorably impacted non-recurring net revenue by $7 million, or 0.8%.

Revenue by Geography

North American revenue consists of residential and small business, primarily a recurring revenue business, and commercial, primarily a non-recurring revenue business. EMEA and ROW revenue are primarily commercial. Net revenue by geography for Tyco Security Solutions was as follows ($ in millions):

	For the Quarters Ended

	December 30, 2011		December 24, 2010		% Change
North America	$	1,287	$	1,262		2.0	%

Net revenue in North America increased by $25 million, or 2.0%. Residential and small business net revenue increased by 3.9%, compared to the quarter ended December 24, 2010. Commercial net revenue decreased by 1.0%, as compared to the quarter ended December 24, 2010, due to weakness in the commercial end-markets. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates unfavorably impacted North American revenue by $1 million, or 0.1%.

Net revenue in EMEA decreased by $33 million, or 7.7%, as compared to the quarter ended December 24, 2010. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates unfavorably impacted EMEA revenue by $13 million, or 3.0%. Revenue was unfavorably impacted by $8 million, or 1.9%, due to divested businesses. The remaining decrease in net revenue for EMEA was primarily due to continued weakness in the European markets.

Net revenue in ROW increased by $44 million, or 13.8%, as compared to the quarter ended December 24, 2010. The increase was primarily attributable to increases in the recurring customer account bases and an increase in systems installation activity in the Asia Pacific and Latin America regions. Additionally, net revenue was favorably impacted by $13 million, or 4.1% due to the net impact of acquisitions and divestitures primarily related to the acquisition of Signature Security. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates unfavorably impacted net revenue by $5 million, or 1.6%.

Table of Contents

Net revenue in Tyco Security Products increased by $12 million, or 12.5%, as compared to the quarter ended December 24, 2010.

Changes in foreign currency exchange rates unfavorably impacted operating income by $4 million, or 1.2%.

Tyco Flow Control

Net Revenue

Net revenue for Tyco Flow Control was as follows ($ in millions):

	For the Quarters Ended

	December 30, 2011		December 24, 2010		% Change
Revenue from product sales	$	856	$	755		13.4	%
Service revenue		67		71		(5.6	)%

Net revenue	$	923	$	826		11.7	%

Net revenue for Tyco Flow Control of $923 million increased $97 million or 11.7%, during the quarter ended December 30, 2011 compared to the quarter ended December 24, 2010. Net revenue was favorably impacted by KEF Holdings Ltd. ("KEF Holdings"), which was acquired in the beginning of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, and contributed $21 million of revenue for the quarter ended December 30, 2011. The remaining increase was due to strength in both our Valves and Controls and our Thermal Controls businesses. The increase in revenue was partially offset by weakness in our Water and Environmental Systems business, primarily due to the completion of a large desalinization project in Australia in the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Changes in foreign currency rates unfavorably impacted net revenue by $1 million or 0.1%.

Operating Income and Operating Margin

Operating income and operating margin for Tyco Flow Control were as follows ($ in millions):

	For the Quarters Ended

	December 30, 2011			December 24, 2010			% Change
Operating income	$	114		$	100			14.0	%
Operating margin		12.4	%		12.1	%

Operating income of $114 million increased $14 million, or 14.0%, in the quarter ended December 30, 2011 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase is primarily a result of the increased volume from our Valves and Controls and Thermal Controls businesses as compared to the prior year period. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in operating income in our Water and Environmental Systems business, which was the result of the completion of a large desalinization project in the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Restructuring charges in the quarter ended December 30, 2011 were nil as compared to $1 million in the same period in the prior year. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates during the quarter had a negligible impact on operating income.

Corporate and Other

Corporate expense was $125 million for the quarter ended December 30, 2011 compared to $164 million of income during the quarter ended December 24, 2010. The increase in Corporate expense was driven by a gain on divestiture of $259 million recognized during the quarter ended December 24, 2010 related to the divestiture of a majority interest in our Electrical and Metal products business. The remaining increase in Corporate expense for the quarter ended December 30, 2011 was primarily related to $32 million of charges incurred in connection with the 2012 Separation, as compared to nil in the same period in the prior year. Corporate also recorded net restructuring charges of $5 million for both the quarters ended December 30, 2011 and December 24, 2010. The quarter

Table of Contents

ended December 24, 2010 also included income of $7 million related to a legacy legal settlement, as compared to nil in the quarter ended December 30, 2011.

Interest Income and Expense

Interest income was $7 million and $9 million for the quarters ended December 30, 2011 and December 24, 2010, respectively. The decrease in interest income is primarily related to a lower cash balance.

Interest expense was $59 million in the quarter ended December 30, 2011 compared to $62 million in the quarter ended December 24, 2010. The decrease in interest expense is primarily related to savings realized from the replacement of higher coupon notes with lower coupon notes, including the maturity of 6.75% notes due 2011 and issuances of 3.75% notes due 2018 and 4.625% notes due 2023 during the second quarter of 2011.

Other Expense, Net

Other expense, net was $8 million and nil during the quarters ended December 30, 2011 and December 24, 2010, respectively. Other expense, net for the quarter ended December 30, 2011 primarily related to our share of Atkore's net loss of $9 million, which is accounted for under the equity method of accounting, and is offset by changes in amounts due from Covidien and TE Connectivity, formerly Tyco Electronics under the Tax Sharing Agreement. See Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Effective Income Tax Rate

Our effective income tax rate was 18.9% and 25.0% during the quarters ended December 30, 2011 and December 24, 2010, respectively. The decrease in our effective tax rate was primarily related to a favorable audit resolution in a non-U.S. jurisdiction during the first quarter of fiscal 2012 and a non-recurring tax charge recorded in conjunction with the sale of a majority interest in our Electrical and Metal Products business during the comparable prior period. The rate can vary from quarter to quarter due to discrete items, such as the settlement of income tax audits and changes in tax laws, as well as recurring factors such as the geographic mix of income before taxes.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to use judgment in making estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses. We believe that our accounting policies for depreciation and amortization methods of security monitoring-related assets, revenue recognition, loss contingencies, income taxes, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, long-lived assets and pension and postretirement benefits are based on, among other things, judgments and assumptions made by management that include inherent risks and uncertainties. During fiscal 2012, there have been no significant changes to these policies or in the underlying accounting assumptions and estimates used in the above critical accounting policies from those disclosed in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011 (the "2011 Form 10-K"). See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the adoption and issuance of new accounting standards during fiscal 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

A fundamental objective of the Company is to have sufficient liquidity, balance sheet strength, and financial flexibility to fund the operating and capital requirements of its core businesses around the

Table of Contents

world. The primary source of funds to finance our operations and capital expenditures is cash generated by operations. In addition, we maintain a commercial paper program, have access to committed revolving credit facilities and have access to equity and debt capital from public and private sources. We continue to balance our operating, investing and financing uses of cash through investments and acquisitions in our core businesses, dividends and share repurchases. In addition, we believe our cash position, amounts available under our credit facilities and cash provided by operating activities will be adequate to cover our operational and business needs in the foreseeable future.

We had $1.0 billion and $1.4 billion of cash and cash equivalents as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, respectively. Cash generated by operating activities increased to $338 million for the quarter ended December 30, 2011 compared to $246 million for the quarter ended December 24, 2010. Cash used in investing activities was $441 million for the quarter ended December 30, 2011 compared to cash provided by investing activities of $389 million for the quarter ended December 24, 2010. Cash used in financing activities was $271 million for the quarter ended December 30, 2011 compared to $345 million for the quarter ended December 24, 2010.

As of December 30, 2011, our shareholder's equity was $14.3 billion and our total debt was $4.2 billion. In addition, we had lines of credit totaling approximately $1.5 billion, none of which were drawn, although the Company had dedicated $35 million of availability to backstop outstanding commercial paper. Our ratio of total debt to total capital (the sum of our short- and long-term debt and shareholders' equity) was 23% as of both December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, respectively. This ratio is a measure of our long-term liquidity and is an indicator of financial flexibility.

The level of capital expenditures in fiscal year 2012 is expected to exceed the spending levels in fiscal year 2011 and is also expected to exceed depreciation expense.

During the quarters ended December 30, 2011 and December 24, 2010, we paid approximately $170 million and $133 million, respectively, to acquire approximately 144,000 and 121,000 customer contracts for electronic security services within our Tyco Security Solutions segment.

Cash flow from financing activities

During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, TIFSA issued commercial paper to U.S. institutional accredited investors and qualified institutional buyers. Borrowings under the commercial paper program are available for general corporate purposes. As of December 30, 2011, TIFSA had $35 million of commercial paper outstanding, which bore interest at a weighted-average rate of 0.55%.

Pursuant to our share repurchase program, we may repurchase Tyco shares from time to time in open market purchases at prevailing market prices, in negotiated transactions off the market, or pursuant to an approved 10b5-1 trading plan in accordance with applicable regulations. During the quarter ended December 30, 2011, we repurchased approximately 5 million common shares for approximately $200 million under our 2011 share repurchase program. During the quarter ended December 24, 2010, we repurchased approximately 13 million common shares for approximately $500 million under the 2008 and 2010 share repurchase programs.

On March 9, 2011, our shareholders approved an annual dividend on our common shares of $1.00 per share, to be paid from contributed surplus in four installments of $0.25 per share. During the quarters ended December 30, 2011 and December 24, 2010, we paid cash dividends of approximately $116 million and $113 million, respectively.

Management believes that cash generated by or available to us should be sufficient to fund our capital and operational business needs for the foreseeable future, including capital expenditures, quarterly dividend payments, share repurchases and separation-related expenses.

Commitments and Contingencies

For a detailed discussion of contingencies related to tax and litigation matters and governmental investigations, see Notes 6 and 11 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Backlog

We had a backlog of unfilled orders of $9.8 billion and $9.7 billion as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, respectively. We expect that approximately 87% of our backlog as of December 30, 2011 will be filled during the next 12 months. Backlog by segment was as follows ($ in millions):

	December 30, 2011		September 30, 2011

Tyco Security Solutions	$	6,788	$	6,776
Tyco Flow Control		1,792		1,744
Tyco Fire Protection		1,179		1,131

	$	9,759	$	9,651

Backlog increased $108 million, or 1.1%, to $9.8 billion as of December 30, 2011. The net increase in backlog was primarily related to an increase in recurring revenue-in-force in our Tyco Security Solutions segment and increased bookings in our Tyco Fire Protection segment and our Tyco Flow Control segment. This increase was partially offset by unfavorable changes in foreign currency rates of $37 million, or 0.4%. Tyco Security Solutions' backlog includes recurring revenue-in-force and long-term deferred revenue for upfront fees paid by customers for Tyco Security Solutions' owned security systems. Revenue-in-force represents 12 months' revenue associated with monitoring and maintenance services under contract in the security business. Tyco Security Solutions' backlog of $6.8 billion for both December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, consists primarily of $5.0 billion and $4.9 billion of recurring revenue-in-force as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011 and $1.1 billion of deferred revenue as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011.

Certain of our business segments have guaranteed the performance of third-parties and provided financial guarantees for uncompleted work and financial commitments. The terms of these guarantees vary with end dates ranging from the current fiscal year through the completion of such transactions. The guarantees would typically be triggered in the event of nonperformance and performance under the guarantees, if required, would not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In disposing of assets or businesses, we often provide representations, warranties and/or indemnities to cover various risks including, for example, unknown damage to the assets, environmental risks involved in the sale of real estate, liability to investigate and remediate environmental contamination at waste disposal sites and manufacturing facilities, and unidentified tax liabilities and legal fees related to periods prior to disposition. We have no reason to believe that these contingencies, if realized, associated with these risks would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. We have recorded liabilities for known indemnifications included as part of environmental liabilities. See Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of these liabilities.

In the normal course of business, we are liable for contract completion and product performance. We record estimated product warranty costs at the time of sale. In the opinion of management, such obligations will not significantly affect our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

For a detailed discussion of guarantees and indemnifications, see Note 18 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

•: the outcome of litigation, arbitrations and governmental proceedings;
•: effect of income tax audit settlements, litigation and appeals;
•: our ability to repay or refinance our outstanding indebtedness as it matures;

•: changes in U.S. and non-U.S. government laws and regulations;
•: the possible effects on Tyco of future legislation in the United States that may limit or eliminate potential U.S. tax benefits resulting from Tyco International's Swiss incorporation or deny U.S. government contracts to Tyco based upon its Swiss incorporation;

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company's exposure to market risk from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices has not changed materially from our exposure discussed in the 2011 Form 10-K. In order to manage the volatility relating to our more significant market risks, we currently enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts, interest rate swaps and commodity swaps.

We utilize established risk management policies and procedures in executing derivative financial instrument transactions. We do not execute transactions or hold derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Derivative financial instruments related to non-functional currency cash flows are used with the goal of mitigating a significant portion of these exposures when it is cost effective to do so. Counterparties to derivative financial instruments are limited to financial institutions with at least an A-/A3 long-term credit rating.

In addition, our financial statements reflect translation of items denominated in non-U.S. currencies to U.S. dollars, our functional currency (using year-end exchange rates for balance sheet data and average exchange rates for statement of operations data). Therefore, if the U.S. dollar has strengthened in relation to the principle foreign currencies where we derive revenue as compared to a prior period, our U.S. dollar reported revenue and income will decrease, and vice-versa. Changes in the relative values of currencies occur regularly and in some instances, may have a significant effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

The Company, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15 of the Securities and Exchange Act (the Exchange Act)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 30, 2011, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that it is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 30, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Legacy Matters

Environmental Matters

Table of Contents

Asbestos Matters

The Company and certain of its subsidiaries along with numerous other companies are named as defendants in personal injury lawsuits based on alleged exposure to asbestos-containing materials. These cases typically involve product liability claims based primarily on allegations of manufacture, sale or distribution of industrial products that either contained asbestos or were attached to or used with asbestos-containing components manufactured by third-parties. Each case typically names between dozens to hundreds of corporate defendants. While the Company has observed an increase in the number of these lawsuits over the past several years, including lawsuits by plaintiffs with mesothelioma-related claims, a large percentage of these suits have not presented viable legal claims and, as a result, have been dismissed by the courts. The Company's strategy has been, and continues to be, to mount a vigorous defense aimed at having unsubstantiated suits dismissed, and, where appropriate, settling suits before trial. Although a large percentage of litigated suits have been dismissed, the Company cannot predict the extent to which it will be successful in resolving lawsuits in the future. As part of the Company's strategy, it has also entered into a cost-sharing agreement with an entity from which it acquired a business several decades ago. Under the agreement, insurance proceeds from policies that were purchased by the seller prior to its acquisition by the Company have been made available to the Company. To the extent there is insufficient insurance for claims subject to the agreement, the parties are required to share costs, although responsibility for such excess costs gradually transitions to the Company over the next nine to ten years. In 2022, the Company will ultimately be responsible for all excess costs if available insurance policies do not fully respond. While the Company expects that the insurance policies it has gained access to under the agreement will be sufficient to cover any increased liability resulting from this arrangement, it cannot predict whether this will be the case.

For a detailed discussion of asbestos-related matters, see Note 11 of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Income Tax Matters

In connection with the 2007 spin-offs of Covidien and TE Connectivity from Tyco, Tyco entered into a Tax Sharing Agreement that governs the rights and obligations of each party with respect to certain pre-2007 Separation income tax liabilities. More specifically, Tyco, Covidien and TE Connectivity share 27%, 42% and 31%, respectively, of shared income tax liabilities that arise from adjustments made by tax authorities to Tyco's, Covidien's and TE Connectivity' U.S. and certain non-U.S. income tax returns. Costs and expenses associated with the management of these shared tax liabilities are generally shared equally among the parties. Consistent with the sharing provisions of the Tax Sharing Agreement, Tyco had a net receivable from Covidien and TE Connectivity of $89 million as of both December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011. In addition, as of December 30, 2011 and September 30, 2011, the Company had recorded $388 million and $387 million, respectively, in other liabilities, and $49 million and $49 million, respectively, in accrued and other current liabilities.

Tyco and its subsidiaries' income tax returns periodically are examined by various tax authorities. In connection with these examinations, tax authorities, including the IRS, have raised issues and proposed tax adjustments. The Company is reviewing and contesting certain of the proposed tax

adjustments. Amounts related to these tax adjustments and other tax contingencies and related interest have been assessed as uncertain income tax positions and recorded as appropriate.

For a detailed discussion of contingencies related to Tyco's income taxes, see Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Compliance Matters

Covidien and TE Connectivity agreed, in connection with the 2007 Separation, to cooperate with the Company in its responses regarding these matters. Any judgment required to be paid or settlement or other cost incurred by the Company in connection with the FCPA investigation matters would be subject to the liability sharing provisions of the Separation and Distribution Agreement, which assigned liabilities primarily related to the former Healthcare and Electronics businesses of the Company to Covidien and TE Connectivity, respectively, and provides that the Company will retain liabilities primarily related to its continuing operations. Any liabilities not primarily related to a particular segment will be shared equally among the Company, Covidien and TE Connectivity.

ERISA Partial Withdrawal Liability Assessment and Demand

Broadview Security Contingency

On May 14, 2010, the Company acquired Broadview Security, which is a business that was formerly owned by The Brink's Company. Under the Coal Industry Retiree Health Benefit Act of 1992, as amended (the "Coal Act"), The Brink's Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries at July 20, 1992 (including certain legal entities acquired in the Broadview Security acquisition) are jointly and severally liable with certain of The Brink's Company's other current and former subsidiaries for health care coverage obligations provided for by the Coal Act. A Voluntary Employees' Beneficiary Associate ("VEBA") trust has been established by The Brink's Company to pay for these liabilities, although the trust may have insufficient funds to satisfy all future obligations. At the time of its spin-off from The Brink's Company, Broadview Security entered into an agreement in which The Brink's Company agreed to indemnify it for any and all liabilities and expenses related to The Brink's Company's former coal operations, including any health care coverage obligations. The Brink's Company has agreed that this indemnification survives the Company's acquisition of Broadview Security. The Company has evaluated its potential liability under the Coal Act as a contingency in light of all known facts, including the funding of the VEBA, and indemnification provided by The Brinks Company. The Company has concluded that no accrual is necessary due to the existence of the indemnification and its belief that The Brink's Company and VEBA will be able to satisfy all future obligations under the Coal Act.

ADT Dealer Litigation

Table of Contents

appeal, the Colorado Court of Appeals affirmed the verdict in ADT's favor in October 2011. The plaintiffs have requested that the Supreme Court of Colorado hear an appeal of the Court of Appeals' decision. The Supreme Court has not yet ruled. Although the Company expects a favorable resolution of the class action lawsuit in Colorado, a number of claims related to the 2002 and 2003 decision to terminate certain authorized dealers outside the United States remain outstanding. While it is not possible at this time to predict the final outcome of the Colorado lawsuit or other lawsuits stemming from dealer terminations, the Company does not believe these claims will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Other Matters

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Tyco's significant business risks are described in Part I, Item 1A in our 2011 Form 10-K, to which reference is made herein. Management does not believe that there have been any significant changes in the Company's risk factors since the Company filed the 2011 Form 10-K.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

Period		Average Price Paid Per Share			Maximum Approximate Dollar Value of Shares that May Yet Be Purchased Under Publicly Announced Plans or Programs

10/1/11–10/28/11	5,137,119	$	42.46	4,724,214	$	500,076,000

12/3/11–12/30/11	10,876	$	46.69	—

The transactions described in the table above represent the repurchase of common shares on the New York Stock Exchange as part of the $1.0 billion share repurchase program approved by the Board in April 2011 ("2011 Share Repurchase Program"). In addition, the Company also acquires shares from certain employees in order to satisfy employee tax withholding requirements in connection with the vesting of restricted shares. Approximately 425,137 shares were acquired in these vesting-related transactions outside of the share repurchase program during the quarter ended December 30, 2011. The average price paid per share is calculated by dividing the total cash paid for the shares by the total number of shares repurchased. As of December 30, 2011, approximately $500 million remained outstanding under the 2011 Share Repurchase Program.
