Except as set forth in Sections 5.4 and 5.5, if the restrictions on Stock-Based Awards have not lapsed or been satisfied as of the Participant’s Termination of Employment, such Awards will be forfeited by the Participant, and, as the case may be, the Participant shall be required to retransfer any Shares to the Company previously delivered to the Company in respect of such Awards.

(b)Grant of Restricted Stock. The Committee may grant Restricted Stock to any Participant. The Participant will have all rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares, including the right to vote and to receive dividends or other distributions, except that the Shares may be subject to a vesting schedule and will be forfeited if the Participant attempts to sell, transfer, assign, pledge or otherwise encumber or dispose of the Shares before the restrictions are satisfied or lapse. Upon forfeiture, the Participant shall be required to retransfer the Shares to the Company.

(c)Grant of Restricted Units. The Committee may grant Restricted Units to any Participant, which Units will be paid in cash or whole Shares or a combination of cash and Shares, in the discretion of the Committee, when the restrictions on the Units lapse and any other conditions set forth in the Award Certificate have been satisfied. For each Restricted Unit that vests, one Share will be paid or an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of a Share as of the date on which the Restricted Unit vests.

(d)Grant of Deferred Stock Units. The Committee may grant Deferred Stock Units to any Participant, which Units will be paid in whole Shares if the restrictions on the Units have lapsed. One Share will be paid for each Deferred Stock Unit that becomes payable.

4.7 Nonemployee Director Awards.

(a)Annual Awards. Annually, the Committee shall grant an Award to each Nonemployee Director in such an amount as the Board, in its discretion, may approve in advance; provided that the fair market value (as determined under GAAP) on the grant date of such Award does not exceed $200,000. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, the form of such Awards shall be Restricted Stock Units with a one year vesting period, and shall be granted on the business day following the annual general meeting of shareholders.

(b)Additional Awards. In addition to the annual Awards provided for above, the Committee may, in its discretion, grant additional Awards to Nonemployee Directors or prospective Nonemployee Directors, provided that in no event shall such an Award be granted with respect to more than 20,000 Shares in any fiscal year.

4.8Substitute Awards. The Committee may make Awards under the Plan to Acquired Grantees through the assumption of, or in substitution for, outstanding stock-based awards previously granted to such Acquired Grantees. Unless otherwise agreed in the relevant documentation related to the acquisition, such assumed or substituted Awards will be subject to the terms and conditions of the original awards made by the Acquired Company, with such adjustments therein as the Committee considers appropriate to give effect to the relevant provisions of the acquisition agreement. Any grant of Incentive Stock Options pursuant to this Section 4.8 will be made in accordance with Code Section 424 and any final regulations published thereunder.

4.9Limit on Individual Grants. Subject to Sections 5.1, 5.3 and 5.4, no Participant may be granted an Award with respect to more than 6 million Shares in any calendar year,provided, that additional Awards in excess of such limitation and up to 10 million Shares may be granted to a Reporting Person who has been hired within the calendar year so long as such additional Awards are made in the form of Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights or Long-Term Performance Based Awards. The maximum amount that may be paid in cash or Shares to any Participant pursuant to Short-Term Performance Awards is $5 million per calendar year. The maximum amount that may be paid in cash to any Participant pursuant to Long-Term Performance Awards is $5 million per calendar year and the maximum number of Shares payable with respect to Long-Term Performance Awards shall not exceed 6 million Shares for any calendar year (or 10 million Shares in the circumstance described in the proviso of the preceding sentence) less the number of Shares related to any other Awards granted in the same calendar year to such Participant (pro rated, in each case, as appropriate over the applicable Performance Cycles).

4.10Termination for Cause. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if a Participant incurs a Termination of Directorship or Termination of Employment for Cause, then all of such Participant’s Awards will immediately be cancelled. The exercise of any Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right or the payment of any Award may be delayed, in the Committee’s discretion, in the event that a potential termination for Cause is pending.

ARTICLE V

SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN; ADJUSTMENTS

5.1Shares Available. The Shares issuable under the Plan may consist of Shares issued from the Company’s authorized share capital or conditional share capital or treasury shares of the Company (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Shares owned by any Subsidiary). The total number of Shares reserved for Awards under the Plan is the sum of (i) 50,000,000 and (ii) any Shares subject, as of the Effective Date of the Plan, to the outstanding awards under the Tyco International Ltd. 2004 Stock and Incentive Plan that cease for any reason to be subject to such awards (other than by reason of exercise or settlement of the awards to the extent they are exercised for or settled in vested and nonforfeitable Shares) as may be adjusted by Sections 5.3 and 5.4. Awards denominated in Shares that are granted as Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights shall at the time of grant, reduce, on a 1-for-1 basis, the number of Shares available under the Plan. Awards denominated in Shares that are granted as Restricted Stock, Restricted Units, Performance Units, Other Stock-Based Awards, or in respect of Short-Term Performance Awards or Long-Term Performance Awards (other than performance based Stock Options) shall at the time of grant, reduce, on a 1-for-3.32 basis, the number of Shares available under the Plan.

5.2Counting Rules. The following Shares related to Awards under this Plan shall restore Shares available in the same amount in which the Award reduced the Shares available set forth in Section 5.1:

(a) Shares related to Awards paid in cash;

(b) Shares related to Awards that expire, are forfeited or cancelled, or terminate for any other reason without issuance of Shares;

(c) Any Shares issuable in connection with Awards that are assumed, converted or substituted as a result of the acquisition of an Acquired Company by the Company or a combination of the Company with another company; and

(d) Any Shares of Restricted Stock that are returned to the Company as Restricted Stock.

Any Shares that become issuable under the Plan as a result of an adjustment to an outstanding Award in connection with the Company’s spin-offs of The ADT Corporation and Tyco Flow Control International Ltd. and related transactions (the “Separation”) shall not be counted against the number of Shares available set forth in Section 5.1. For the avoidance of doubt, the full number of Stock Appreciation Rights granted that are to be settled by the issuance of Shares shall be counted at the time of grant against the number of Shares available set forth in Section 5.1, regardless of the number of Shares actually issued upon settlement of such Stock Appreciation Rights. Furthermore, any Shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations on an Award issued under the Plan, Shares tendered to pay the exercise price of an Award under the Plan, and Shares repurchased on the open market with the proceeds of an Option exercise shall not restore Shares available for grant under this Plan.

5.3Adjustments. In the event of a change in the outstanding Shares by reason of a stock split, reverse stock split, dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other securities or other property), extraordinary cash dividend, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, reorganization, combination, repurchase or exchange of Shares or other securities or similar corporate transaction or event, the Committee shall make appropriate adjustments to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan (including adjustments to Shares available).

5.4Change in Control.

(a)Acceleration. Unless the applicable Award Certificate provides otherwise, for any Participant who incurs a Change in Control Termination, all unvested Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights will become exercisable as of the later of (i) the effective date of the Change in Control and (ii) the effective date of the Change in Control Termination, and all conditions to vesting will be waived with respect to all other unvested Awards that are denominated in Shares. In such a case, with

respect to Short-Term Performance Awards and Long-Term Performance Awards, performance will be deemed to have been achieved at a level of performance, as determined in the sole discretion of the Committee, at the higher of 100% of the Participant’s Target Amount and the level of actual performance as of the date of the Change in Control.

(b)Adjustment, Conversion and Payment. In addition to the foregoing, no later than 90 days after the date of Change in Control, the Committee (as constituted prior to the date of Change in Control) shall provide for the following actions to apply to each Award that is outstanding as of the date of Change in Control: (i) an adjustment to such Award as the Committee deems appropriate to reflect such Change in Control, (ii) the acquisition of such Award, or substitution of a new right therefor, by the acquiring or surviving entity after such Change in Control, or (iii) the purchase of such Award for an amount of cash equal to the amount that could have been attained upon the exercise or redemption of such Award immediately prior to the Change in Control had such Award been exercisable or payable at such time. Any payment made pursuant to this Section 5.4(b) shall include the value of any dividend equivalents credited with respect to such Award and accrued interest on such dividend equivalents. The Committee may specify how an Award will be treated in the event of a Change in Control either when the Award is granted or at any time thereafter, except as otherwise provided herein.

5.5Vesting upon Death, Disability and Retirement.Unless the applicable Award Certificate provides otherwise:

(a) upon the death or Disability of a Participant, all unvested Awards held by such Participant shall vest, and with respect to all of such Participant’s Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, such Awards will be exercisable until the earlier of (i) their original expiration date and (ii) the date that is three years after the date on which the Participant dies or incurs a Disability.

(b) upon the Termination of Employment of a Participant for any reason other than the Participant’s death or Disability or due to a Change in Control, if the Participant has attained age 55, and the sum of the Participant’s age and years of service with the Company is 60 or higher, a pro rata portion of each Award held by such Participant shall vest based on the number of full months of service completed commencing on the grant date of such Award and ending on the date of Termination of Employment divided by the full number of months required to achieve complete vesting. With respect to all of such Participant’s Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, such Awards will be exercisable until the earlier of (i) their original expiration date and (ii) the date that is three years after the date of Termination of Employment.

5.6Fractional Shares. The Committee may, in its discretion, determine whether fractional shares may be settled in cash, shares or cancelled.

5.7Dividends and Dividend Equivalents. At the discretion of the Committee and as set forth in the applicable Award Certificate, dividends issued on Shares may be credited with respect to any Award other than a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right in the form of dividend equivalents. Dividend equivalents will be subject to such vesting and other terms as are determined by the Committee and set forth in the applicable Award Certificate. For any Award that is entitled to dividend equivalents, (i) unless the Award Certificate provides otherwise, such dividend equivalent shall equal, on a per Share basis, the quotient produced by dividing the cash value of the dividend by the Fair Market Value of one Share as of the date the dividend is paid, (ii) such dividend equivalent shall vest at the same time, and only to the extent that, the underlying Award vests (taking into account any applicable performance conditions).

ARTICLE VI

AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

6.1Amendment. The Plan may be amended at any time and from time to time by the Board or the Committee without the approval of stockholders of the Company, except that no material revision to the terms of the

Plan will be effective until the amendment is approved by the stockholders of the Company. A revision is “material” for this purpose if it materially increases the number of Shares that may be issued under the Plan (other than an increase pursuant to Sections 5.3 and 5.4 of the Plan), expands the types of Awards available under the Plan, materially expands the class of persons eligible to receive Awards under the Plan, materially extends the term of the Plan, materially decreases the Exercise Price at which Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted, reduces the Exercise Price of outstanding Stock Options or Stock Appreciation Rights, results in the replacement of outstanding Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights with new Awards that have an Exercise Price that is lower than the Exercise Price of the replaced Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights, or otherwise requires the consent of shareholders under applicable law, regulation or exchange listing standard;provided, that the Board may, in its discretion, amend Section 4.7 to increase the maximum amount of Awards permitted to be granted to Nonemployee Directors in any calendar year. No amendment of the Plan or any outstanding Award made without the Participant’s written consent may adversely affect any right of a Participant with respect to an outstanding Award.

6.2Termination. The Plan will terminate upon the earlier of the following dates or events to occur:

(a) the adoption of a resolution of the Board terminating the Plan; or

(b) the day before the 10th anniversary of the most recent effective date following shareholder approval of the Plan.

No Awards will be granted under this Plan after it has terminated. The termination of the Plan, however, will not alter or impair any of the rights or obligations of any person under any Award previously granted under the Plan without such person’s consent. After the termination of the Plan, any previously granted Awards will remain in effect and will continue to be governed by the terms of the Plan and the applicable Award Certificate.

ARTICLE VII

GENERAL PROVISIONS

7.1Nontransferability of Awards. No Award under the Plan will be subject in any manner to alienation, anticipation, sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or transfer, and no other persons will otherwise acquire any rights therein, except as provided below.

(a) Any Award may be transferred by will or by the laws of descent or distribution.

(b) The Committee may provide in the applicable Award Certificate that all or any part of an Award (other than an Incentive Stock Option) may be transferred to a family member. For purposes of this subsection (b), “family member” includes any child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law of the Participant, including adoptive relationships, any person sharing the Participant’s household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in which these persons have more than fifty percent of the beneficial interest, a foundation in which these persons (or the Participant) control the management of assets, and any other entity in which these persons (or the Participant) own more than fifty percent of the voting interests.

Any transferred Award will be subject to all of the same terms and conditions as provided in the Plan and the applicable Award Certificate. The Participant or the Participant’s estate will remain liable for any withholding tax that may be imposed by any federal, state or local tax authority. The Committee may, in its discretion, disallow all or a part of any transfer of an Award pursuant to this subsection (b) unless and until the Participant makes arrangements satisfactory to the Committee for the payment of any withholding tax.

Stock Option transferred by a Participant pursuant to this subsection (c) may be exercised by the transferee only to the extent that the Award would have been exercisable by the Participant had no transfer occurred. The transfer of Shares upon exercise of the Award will be conditioned on the payment of any withholding tax.

(d) Restricted Stock may be freely transferred after the restrictions lapse or are satisfied and the Shares are delivered, and, if applicable, in compliance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or pursuant to an effective registration for resale under the Securities Act.

(e) In no event may a Participant transfer an Incentive Stock Option other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

7.2Withholding of Taxes. The Committee, in its discretion, may satisfy a Participant’s tax withholding obligations by any of the following methods or any method as it determines to be in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Participant resides, has domicile or performs services.

(a)Stock Options and Stock Appreciation Rights. As a condition to the delivery of Shares pursuant to the exercise of a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right, the Committee may require that the Participant, at the time of exercise, pay to the Company by cash, certified check, bank draft, wire transfer or postal or express money order an amount sufficient to satisfy any applicable tax withholding obligations. The Committee may also, in its discretion, accept payment of tax withholding obligations through any of the Exercise Price payment methods described in Section 4.3(d).

(b)Other Awards Payable in Shares. The Participant shall satisfy the applicable tax withholding obligations arising in connection with the release of restrictions on Restricted Units, Restricted Stock and other Stock-Based Awards by payment to the Company in cash or by certified check, bank draft, wire transfer or postal or express money order, provided that the format is approved by the Company or a designated third-party administrator. However, subject to any requirements of applicable law, the Participant may also satisfy the tax withholding obligations by other methods, including selling or withholding Shares that would otherwise be available for delivery, provided that the Board or the Committee has specifically approved such payment method in advance.

(c)Awards Paid in Cash. The Company may satisfy a Participant’s tax withholding obligation arising in connection with the payment of any Award in cash by withholding cash from such payment.

7.3Code Section 162(m). The Committee or, to the extent required by applicable law, the Board, may, in its discretion grant Awards that are intended to be “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m). The Committee or, to the extent required by applicable law, the Board, will have the authority, in its sole and absolute discretion, to interpret and administer the Plan consistent with Code Section 162(m) with respect to Key Employees. For the purposes of the Plan, it shall be presumed, unless the Committee indicates to the contrary, that all Awards to Key Employees are intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Code Section 162(m). If the Committee does not intend an Award to a Participant to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m), the Committee shall reflect its intent in its records in such manner as the Committee determines to be appropriate

7.4 No Implied Rights. A Participant’s rights, if any, in respect of or in connection with any Award are derived solely from the discretionary decision of the Company to permit the individual to participate in the Plan and to benefit from a discretionary Award. By accepting an Award under the Plan, a Participant expressly acknowledges that there is no obligation on the part of the Company to continue the Plan and/or grant any additional Awards. Any Award granted hereunder is not intended to be compensation of a continuing or recurring nature, or part of a Participant;s normal or expected compensation, and in no way represents any portion of a Participant’s salary, compensation, or other remuneration for purposes of pension benefits, severance, redundancy, resignation or any other purpose.

Neither the Plan, nor any Award granted under the Plan, shall be deemed to give any individual a right to remain an Employee or Director of the Company or any Subsidiary. The Company and its Subsidiaries reserve the right to terminate the service of any person at any time, and for any reason, subject to applicable laws, the Company’s charter documents and any other applicable written agreement (if any), and such terminated person shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived any claim to damages or specific performance for breach of contract or dismissal, compensation for loss of office, tort or otherwise with respect to the Plan or any outstanding Award that is forfeited and/or is terminated by its terms or to any future Award.

7.5No Obligation to Exercise Awards. The grant of a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right will impose no obligation upon the Participant to exercise the Award.

7.6No Rights as Stockholders. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein or in the applicable Award Certificate, a Participant who is granted an Award under the Plan will have no rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to the Award unless and until the Shares underlying the Award are issued in the Participant as evidenced by an appropriate entry on the books of the Company or a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company. The right of any Participant to receive an Award by virtue of participation in the Plan will be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor of the Company.

7.7No Required Segregation of Assets. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary will be required to segregate any assets that may at any time be represented by Awards granted pursuant to the Plan.

7.8Nature of Payments. All Awards made pursuant to the Plan are in consideration of services for the Company or a Subsidiary. Any gain realized pursuant to Awards under the Plan constitutes a special incentive payment to the Participant and will not be taken into account as compensation for purposes of any other employee benefit plan of the Company or a Subsidiary, except as the Committee otherwise provides. The adoption of the Plan will have no effect on awards made or to be made under any other benefit plan covering an employee of the Company or a Subsidiary or any predecessor or successor of the Company or a Subsidiary.

7.9Securities Law Compliance. Awards under the Plan are intended to satisfy the requirements of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. If any provision of this Plan or any grant of an Award would otherwise frustrate or conflict with this intent, that provision will be interpreted and deemed amended so as to avoid conflict. No Participant will be entitled to a grant, exercise, transfer or payment of any Award if the grant, exercise, transfer or payment would violate the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or any other applicable law.

7.10Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding other provisions of the Plan, or any applicable Award Certificate, no Award shall be granted, deferred, accelerated, extended, paid out or modified under this Plan in a manner that would result in the imposition of an additional tax upon a Participant under Code Section 409A. In the event that it is reasonably determined by the Committee that, as a result of Code Section 409A, payments in respect of any Award under the Plan may not be made at a time contemplated by the terms of the Plan or the applicable Award Certificate, as the case may be, without causing the Participant holding such Award to be subject to taxation under Code Section 409A, the Company shall make such payment on the first day that would not result in the Participant incurring any tax liability under Code Section 409A. References under the Plan or the terms of the applicable Award Certificate to the Participant’s termination of employment shall be deemed to refer to the date upon which the Participant has experienced a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (a) if at the time of the Participant’s separation from service with any Service Recipient, the Participant is a “specified employee” as defined in Code Section 409A, and the deferral of the commencement of any payments or benefits otherwise payable hereunder as a result of such separation from service is necessary in order to prevent the imposition of any accelerated or additional tax under Code Section 409A, then the Company will defer the commencement of the payment of any such payments or benefits hereunder to the minimum extent necessary to satisfy Code Section 409A until the date that is six months and one day following the Participant’s separation from service with all Service Recipients (or the earliest date that is permitted under Code Section 409A), if such payment or benefit is payable upon a termination of employment, and (b) if any other payments of money or other benefits due to the Participant hereunder would cause the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Code Section 409A, such payments or other benefits shall be deferred, if deferral will make such payment or other benefits compliant under Code Section 409A, or otherwise such payment or other benefits shall be restructured, ot the minimum extent necessary, in a manner, reasonably determined by the Committee, that does not cause such an accelerated or additional tax or result in an additional cost to the Company.

7.11Governing Law, Severability. The Plan and all determinations made and actions taken under the Plan will be governed by the law of the Company’s place of incorporation and construed accordingly. If any provision of the Plan is held unlawful or otherwise invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, the unlawfulness, invalidity or unenforceability will not affect any other parts of the Plan, which parts will remain in full force and effect.

7.12Forfeiture; Clawback. The Committee may, in its discretion, provide in an Award Certificate provisions it deems appropriate related to non-competition, non-solicitation, confidentiality, anti-disparagement and similar matters. The Committee may, in its discretion, specify in an Award or a policy that will be incorporated into an Award agreement by reference, that the Participant’s rights, payments, and benefits with respect to an Award shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, in addition to any otherwise applicable vesting or performance conditions of an Award. Such events may include, but shall not be limited to, termination of Employment for cause, termination of the Participant’s provision of services to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, breach of noncompetition, confidentiality, or other restrictive covenants that may apply to the Participant, or restatement of the Company’s financial statements to reflect adverse results from those previously released financial statements, as a consequence of errors, omissions, fraud, or misconduct.
