                                       1
    Tyco Electronics' customers include original equipment manufacturers
("OEMs") and their subcontractors, utilities, government agencies, distributors,
value-added resellers, and customers who install, maintain and repair equipment.
These customers are found in the automotive, power technology, personal
computer, communications, networking, industrial and consumer industries. Tyco
Electronics serves over 200,000 customers located in over 55 countries, covering
many diverse markets.
 
    Tyco Electronics is a global marketing, sales, engineering and manufacturing
company which produces interconnection systems, passive and active electronic
components, and has a strong local presence in the geographical areas in which
it operates, such as the Americas, the Asia-Pacific region, Europe and the
Middle East.
 
    The markets that Tyco Electronics operates in are highly competitive. Tyco
Electronics faces competition across its product lines from other companies
ranging in size from large, diversified manufacturers to small, highly
specialized manufacturers.
 
    The acquisition of Raychem in the last quarter of fiscal 1999 significantly
expanded our product line and complemented existing products and services.
Raychem develops, manufactures and markets a variety of high-performance
products for electronic OEMs, subcontractors and distributors with
telecommunications, computer, consumer, automotive, energy and industrial
markets. Raychem designs, manufactures and distributes products such as circuit
protection devices, heat-shrinkable tubing and molded parts, wire and cable, and
computer touchscreens. In addition, Raychem designs and manufactures fiber optic
and copper cable accessories, energy cable accessories and heat-tracing products
and provides design, engineering and installation services. Siemens EC, acquired
in November 1999, is the world market leader for the manufacture and sale of
relays and is one of the world's leading providers of electro-mechanical
components to the communications, automotive, consumer and general industry
sectors. The Electronic OEM business of T&B, acquired in July 2000, designs and
manufactures electronic connectors for the telecommunications, computer and
automotive industries. T&B's product categories are comprised of: high-density
material interconnect systems used in thermal management, backplane systems and
laptop computers; PCB mounted electromechanical components, including switches,
sockets and I/O connectors; and a variety of connectors for safety systems, I/O
devices, wire harnesses and power distribution centers used in the automotive
industry. T&B's products also include the most advanced high density/high
frequency related metalized particle interconnect technology. These products are
used in telecom equipment and other components such as high density chip carrier
sockets and other high frequency related systems.
 
    In November 2000, we agreed to acquire the Lucent Power Systems ("LPS")
business unit of Lucent Technologies, Inc. LPS provides a full line of energy
solutions and power products for telecommunications service providers and for
the computer industry. LPS products include AC/DC and DC/DC switching power
supplies, batteries, power supplies and back-up power systems.
 
    Also included in Tyco Electronics is Tyco Printed Circuit Group ("TPCG"),
one of the largest independent manufacturers of complex multi-layer printed
circuit boards and backplane assemblies in the United States. TPCG manufactures
multi-layer boards, including highly sophisticated, precision tooled, custom
laminated boards with layer counts up to 68. TPCG also produces sophisticated
flexible-rigid circuit boards for use in commercial, aerospace and military
applications. TPCG's backplane facilities produce soldered, press-fit and
surface mount backplane assemblies. In addition, these facilities provide
turnkey manufacturing services including full "box build" products. Printed
circuit boards and backplane products are manufactured on a job order basis to
the customers' design specifications. The majority of sales are derived from
high-density multi-layer boards.
 
    TPCG markets its products primarily through a direct sales force and, to a
lesser extent, through a network of independent manufacturers' representatives.
Customers are OEMs and contract manufacturers in the communications, computer,
aircraft, military and other industrial and consumer electronics industries. We
compete with several other large independent and captive companies that
 
                                       2
manufacture printed circuit board products primarily in the United States.
Competition is on the basis of quality, reliability, price and timeliness of
delivery.
 

II. TELECOMMUNICATIONS
 
    Tyco's 86% owned subsidiary, TyCom Ltd. ("TyCom"), is a leading independent
provider of transoceanic fiber optic networks and services. TyCom's products and
services include:
 
    - design, engineering, manufacture and installation of undersea cable
      communications systems;
 
    - service and maintenance of major undersea cable networks; and
 
    - design, manufacture and installation of a global undersea fiber optic
      network, known as the TyCom Global Network-TM- ("TGN"). TyCom plans to
      operate, maintain and sell bandwidth capacity on the TGN.
 
    TyCom, a Bermuda Company, was incorporated on March 8, 2000 as a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Tyco to serve as the holding company for its undersea
fiber optic cable communications business. TyCom is the world's only
fully-integrated source for the design, engineering, manufacturing, installation
and servicing of undersea cable communications systems. TyCom designs and builds
both repeatered and non-repeatered fiber optic cable systems. Repeaters are
specialized undersea equipment designed to house and protect optical amplifiers
that amplify voice, video and data signals as they travel across fiber optic
cable. Used typically in systems spanning between 300 and 12,000 kilometers,
repeaters provide the ability to amplify optical signals without first
converting these signals to their electrical equivalents. Non-repeatered
systems, which allow for even greater circuit capacity and reduced transmission
costs, support short haul systems of several hundred kilometers. TyCom has
designed, manufactured and installed over 300,000 kilometers of undersea optical
cable. TyCom Integrated Cable Systems, Inc. is the primary supplier of cable and
cable assemblies to TyCom. It also manufactures underwater electrical power
cables and electro-mechanical cables for unique field operations. Temasa,
acquired during the prior fiscal year, provides a portion of the cable
installation and maintenance operations of TyCom, and is based in Spain.
 
    TyCom is designing, building and installing its own global undersea fiber
optic network, known as the TyCom Global Network ("TGN") and plans to operate,
maintain and sell bandwidth capacity on the TGN. In July 2000, TyCom sold
approximately 14 percent of its common shares in an initial public offering. Net
proceeds from the offfering were approximately $2.1 billion, which will be used
primarily toward the deployment of the TGN. TyCom's principal operating
subsidiaries include TyCom (US) Inc. (formerly Tyco Submarine Systems Ltd.),
TyCom Integrated Cable Systems Inc. (formerly Simplex Technologies) and
Telecomunicaciones Marinas, S.A. ("Temasa").
 
    TyCom Laboratories, the research and development group of TyCom, includes a
world class research and development facility populated by acclaimed engineers
and state of the art equipment to facilitate forward looking design work. TyCom
Laboratories' intellectual property portfolio includes many key enabling
technologies involving terminal transmission and power equipment, optical signal
amplifiers, cable and fiber, network management systems and software,
installation and repair technologies and network integration. TyCom operates one
of the world's largest fleet of ships deployed worldwide to design, maintain,
install and service undersea fiber optic transmission systems. TyCom also uses a
variety of other undersea tools, including robotic vehicles for undersea cable
burial and retrieval operations.
 
    TyCom's sales and marketing personnel consist of professionals with
extensive telecommunication, technical or service backgrounds, and are located
in offices in Bermuda, France, Singapore, the United Kingdom and the United
States.
 
                                       3
    As a supplier of undersea fiber optic cable systems, TyCom competes on a
worldwide basis primarily against two other providers: Alcatel-Alsthom and KDD
Submarine Cable Systems Inc. ("KDD"). Other smaller players compete on a more
limited basis, either as subcontractors to other providers or as suppliers of
regional or non-repeatered systems. Alcatel, like TyCom, is vertically
integrated and produces its own cable, whereas KDD utilizes a Japanese cable
manufacturer. Participants in this market compete on the basis of, among other
things, price, technology, time-to-market, the provision of financing and
regional and long-term relationships. In the future, we will be offering less of
our cable system design, manufacturing and installation capacity to our
customers, and our existing competitors and potential new cable system suppliers
will play a more significant role in the undersea cable system market.
 
    As a provider of undersea cable maintenance, TyCom competes primarily with
Global Marine Systems Ltd., a subsidiary of Global Crossing Ltd. as well as
Alcatel and KDD.
 
    There are a number of companies that are pursuing the deployment of global
fiber optic networks, including Global Crossing, FLAG Telecom, Teleglobe,
360networks and 1Cybernetworks. There are other companies that are or will be
selling bandwidth capacity on various shorter distance undersea cable networks.
As TyCom deploys the TGN, it will face competition in the sale of bandwidth
capacity from existing and planned fiber optic cable networks, as well as
satellite providers and, on certain routes, terrestrial networks. In addition,
the first phase of the TGN will compete with certain of TyCom's customers,
including Global Crossing, 360networks, and various participants in cable system
consortia. The planned expansion of the TGN beyond the first phase will likely
also result in competition with these customers as well as some of TyCom's other
customers. Bandwidth customers, such as large telecommunications service
providers, often have ownership interest in networks that may cause them to
favor purchasing capacity on their own networks rather than on the TGN.

IV. FIRE AND SECURITY SERVICES
 
    Tyco is the world's leading provider of fire protection and electronic
security services. Our products and services include:
 
    - designing, installing and servicing of a broad line of fire detection,
      prevention and suppression systems;
 
    - providing electronic security installation and monitoring services; and
 
    - manufacturing and servicing of fire extinguishers and related products.
 
    FIRE PROTECTION CONTRACTING AND SERVICES
 
    Operating under several trade names including Grinnell, Wormald, Mather &
Platt, Total Walther, O'Donnell Griffin, Dong Bang, Ansul and Tyco, we design,
fabricate, install and service automatic fire sprinkler systems, fire alarm and
detection systems, and special hazard suppression systems in buildings and other
installations. Tyco's fire protection contracting and service business utilizes
a worldwide network of sales offices.
 
    We install fire protection systems in both new and existing structures.
Typically, the contracting businesses bid on contracts for fire protection
installation which are let by owners, architects, construction engineers and
mechanical or general contractors. In recent years, the business of retrofitting
existing buildings has grown as a result of legislation mandating the
installation of fire protection systems and also as a result of lower insurance
premiums available to structures with automatic sprinkler systems. We continue
to focus on system maintenance and inspection, which has become a more
significant part of the business.
 
    The majority of the fire suppression systems installed by Tyco are
water-based. However, we are also the world's leading provider of custom
designed hazard fire protection systems which incorporate various specialized
non-water agents such as foams, dry chemicals and gases. Systems using agents
other than water are especially suited to fire protection in certain
manufacturing, power generation, petrochemical, offshore oil exploration,
transportation, telecommunications, mining and marine applications. We hold
exclusive manufacturing and distribution rights in several regions of the world
for INERGEN-Registered Trademark- fire suppression products. INERGEN is an
alternative to the ozone depleting agent known as halon and consists of a
mixture of three inert gases designed to effectively extinguish fires without
polluting the environment, damaging costly equipment or harming people.
 
    In Australia, New Zealand and Asia, Tyco also engages in the installation of
electrical wire and related electrical equipment in new and existing structures
and provides specialized electrical contracting services, including applications
for railroad and bridge construction, primarily through its O'Donnell Griffin
division.
 
                                       7
    Substantially all of the mechanical components (and, in North America, a
high proportion of the pipe) used in the fire protection systems installed by us
are manufactured by us. We also have fabrication plants worldwide that cut,
thread and weld pipe, which is then shipped with other prefabricated components
to job sites for installation. We have developed our own computer-aided-design
technology that reduces the time required to design systems for specific
applications and coordinates the fabrication and delivery of system components.
 
    Generally, competition in the fire protection business varies by geographic
location. In North America, Tyco competes with hundreds of smaller contractors
on a regional or local basis for the installation of fire suppression and fire
alarm and detection systems. Many of the regional and local competitors employ
non-union labor. In Europe, Tyco competes with many regional or local
contractors on a country by country basis. In Australia, New Zealand and Asia,
we compete with a few large fire protection contractors as well as with many
smaller regional or local companies. Tyco competes for fire protection contracts
primarily on the basis of price, service and quality.
 
    ELECTRONIC SECURITY SERVICES
 
    We provide electronic security services principally under the ADT trade name
and also under other trade names including Alarmguard, Thorn Security, Total
Walther, Holmes Protection, CIPE, CAPS, Zettler, Sonitrol, TEPG and Armourguard.
We provide electronic security services primarily in North America, Europe, the
Middle East, the Asia-Pacific region and Latin America.
 
    Electronically monitored security systems involve the installation and use
on a customer's premises of devices designed to detect or react to various
occurrences or conditions, such as intrusion, movement, fire, smoke, flooding,
environmental conditions (including temperature or humidity variations),
industrial operations (such as water, gas or steam pressure and process flow
controls) or other hazards. These detection devices are connected to a
microprocessor-based control panel which communicates through telephone lines to
a monitoring center, often located at remote distances from the customer's
premises, where alarm and supervisory signals are received and recorded. In most
systems, control panels can identify the nature of the alarm and the areas
within a building where the sensor was activated. Depending upon the type of
service for which the subscriber has contracted, monitoring center personnel
respond to alarms by relaying appropriate information to the local fire or
police departments, notifying the customer or taking other appropriate action,
such as dispatching employees to the customer's premises. In some instances, the
customer may monitor the system at its own premises or the system may be
connected to local fire or police departments.
 
    We provide electronic security services to both commercial and residential
customers. Our commercial customers include financial institutions, industrial
and commercial businesses, facilities of federal, state and local government
departments, defense installations, and health care and educational facilities.
We provide residential electronic security services primarily in North America
and Europe, with a growing presence in the Asia-Pacific region. Our customers
are often prompted to purchase security systems by their insurance carriers,
which may offer lower insurance premium rates if a security system is installed
or require that a system be installed as a condition to coverage.
 
    We also offer event monitoring and inspection services. We are the global
leader for the supply of event monitoring in the security industry. In addition
to the traditional monitoring of a burglar alarm system, Tyco monitors fire
alarms, heating services, medical alert systems, and activity where around the
clock monitoring and response is required. We also offer regular inspection and
maintenance services so that systems will function appropriately and are
upgraded as technology or risk profiles change.
 
    Our electronic security systems and products are tailored to our customers'
specific needs and include electronic monitoring services that provide intrusion
and fire detection, as well as card or keypad activated access control systems
and closed circuit television ("CCTV") systems. Systems may be monitored by the
customer at its premises or connected to one of our monitoring centers. In
either case, we usually provide support and maintenance through service
contracts. It has been our experience
 
                                       8
that commercial and residential contracts are generally renewed after their
initial terms. Contract discontinuances occur principally as a result of
customer relocation or closure. Systems installed at commercial customers'
premises may be owned by us or by our customer. We usually retain ownership of
standard residential systems, but more sophisticated residential systems are
usually purchased by our customers.
 
    We market our electronic security services to commercial and residential
customers through a direct sales force and an authorized dealer network.
Commercial customers are serviced by a separate national accounts sales force.
We also utilize advertising, telemarketing and direct mail to market our
services.
 
    The electronic security services business in North America is highly
competitive, with a number of major firms and approximately 12,000 smaller
regional and local companies. Tyco also competes with several national companies
and several thousand regional and local companies in Europe, the Middle East,
the Asia-Pacific region and Latin America. Competition is based primarily on
price in relation to quality of service. We believe that the quality of our
electronic security services is higher than that of many of our competitors and,
therefore, our prices may be higher than those charged by our competitors.
 
    In December 2000, we agreed to acquire Simplex Time Recorder Co.
("Simplex"). Simplex manufactures fire and security products and communications
systems including control panels, detection devices and system software. Simplex
also installs, monitors and services fire alarms, security systems and access
control systems.
 
    MANUFACTURING
 
    Our Ansul subsidiary manufactures and sells various lines of dry chemical,
liquid and gaseous portable fire extinguishers and related agents for
industrial, government, commercial and consumer applications. Ansul also
manufactures and sells special hazard fire suppression systems designed for use
in restaurants, marine applications, mining applications, the petrochemical
industry, confined industrial spaces and commercial spaces housing electronic
and other delicate equipment. Ansul also manufactures spill control products
designed to absorb, neutralize and solidify spills of various hazardous
materials.
 
    Our Fire and Security Services segment manufactures certain alarm, detection
and activation devices and central monitoring station equipment which is both
installed by our own units and sold to other installers of alarm and detection
devices. Otherwise, we do not manufacture the electronic security system
components which we install, although we do provide our own specifications to
manufacturers for certain security system components and undertake some final
assembly work in respect of more sophisticated systems. These products are
manufactured primarily outside of the United States.

manufactured in the United Kingdom, Australia and Brazil compete primarily with
other local and national producers in those countries. Competition is based on
price, service and breadth of product line. Competition for fence products is
principally from national and regional United States producers and to a lesser
extent from non-United States companies on the basis of price, service and
distribution. Allied competes with many small regional manufacturers for the
sale of specialized industrial tubing on the basis of price and breadth of
product line. The group's electrical raceway and related products are sold
through independent distributors and agents. Competition for electrical products
is from local and national companies in each country on the basis of price,
delivery and service. Earth Tech competes with a number of international,
national, regional and local companies on the basis of price and the breadth and
quality of their services.
 
                                       11

BACKLOG
 
    At September 30, 2000, we had a backlog of unfilled orders of approximately
$8,214.8 million, compared to a backlog of approximately $7,581.1 million as of
September 30, 1999. We expect that approximately 86% of our backlog at
September 30, 2000 will be filled during the year ending September 30, 2001.
Backlog by industry segment is as follows ($ in millions):
 
                                                                 SEPTEMBER 30,
                                                              -------------------

                                                              $8,214.8   $7,581.1
                                                              ========   ========
 
    The decrease in backlog within the Telecommunications segment is due to
TyCom devoting a substantial portion of its resources to designing and
manufacturing the TGN and therefore taking on less work as a supplier of
undersea fiber optic cable systems for others. Within the Electronics segment,
backlog increased principally due to an increase in demand for the products
manufactured by AMP and Raychem, and to a lesser extent, the effect of
acquisitions. Within the Flow Control Products and Services segment, the
increase was principally due to increased backlog at Earth Tech, related to new
contract bookings and water and waste water facility contracts, and an increase
in demand for its valves and control products. Within the Fire and Security
Services segment, backlog increased principally due to long-term service
contracts in the Australian fire protection business and, to a lesser extent,
the effect of acquisitions. Backlog in the Healthcare and Specialty Products
segment is not indicative of the level of sales activity. Backlog in this
segment generally represents unfilled orders which are shipped shortly after
puchase orders are received.

in good operating condition and are adequate for our present needs. We do not
anticipate difficulty in renewing existing leases as they expire or in finding
alternative facilities. See Note 17 to Consolidated Financial Statements for a
description of our rental obligations.
 

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
 
    The amounts expended for Tyco-sponsored research and development during
Fiscal 2000, Fiscal 1999, and Fiscal 1998 were $527.5 million, $450.5 million
and $511.4 million, respectively. Customer-funded research and development
expenditures were $18.6 million, $4.6 million and $6.8 million, respectively.
 
    Approximately 7,900 full-time scientists, engineers and other technical
personnel are engaged in our product research and development activities.
 
    Research activity at TyCom involves the continuing design and development of
processes for the next generation of undersea fiber optic cable. Activity at
Tyco Electronics focuses on new product development and a continual expansion of
technical capabilities. Tyco Healthcare focuses on acquiring rights to new
products and technologies to complement existing product lines and applying
expertise to refine and successfully commercialize such products and
technologies. Research activity in the Fire and Security Services and Flow
Control Products and Services segments is related to improvements in hydraulic
design which controls the motion of fluids, resulting in new sprinkler devices
and flow control products. Research and development activity at the specialty
packaging companies involves new product applications.
 

RAW MATERIALS
 
    We are one of the largest buyers of steel and plastic resin in the United
States. Other principal materials include copper, brass, plastic, gold,
polyethylene resin and film, polypropylene, electronic components, chemicals and
additives, thin and flexible copper clad materials, paper, ink, foil, adhesives,
cloth, wax, pulp and cotton. Certain of the materials used in the Fire and
Security Services segment and the Flow Control Products and Services segment,
principally certain valves and fittings and security
 
                                       13
systems, are purchased for installation in fire protection systems or for
distribution. Materials are purchased both inside and outside of the United
States from a large number of independent sources. There have been no shortages
in materials which have had a material adverse effect on our businesses.
 

PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS
 
    We own a number of patents which principally relate to electrical and
electronic products, healthcare and specialty products, fire protection devices,
electronic security systems, flow control products, pipe and tubing manufacture,
and cable manufacture. We also own a number of trademarks and are a licensee
under a number of patents. Although these have been of value and are expected to
continue to be of value in the future, in the opinion of management, the loss of
any single patent or group of patents would not materially affect the conduct of
the business in any of our segments. The patents and licenses have remaining
lives of from one to twenty years. Kendall, part of Tyco Healthcare, sells
certain products under trade names owned by its suppliers and packages certain
products under customer trademarks and labels.
 

EMPLOYEES
 
    Tyco employed approximately 202,000 persons at September 30, 2000, of which
approximately 90,000 are employed in the United States and 112,000 outside the
United States. These amounts exclude approximately 13,000 persons who work for
Mallinckrodt Inc., which we acquired in October 2000. We have collective
bargaining agreements with labor unions covering approximately 36,000 employees
at certain of our North American, European and Asia-Pacific businesses. We
believe that our relations with the labor unions and with our employees are
generally satisfactory. In April 1994, following lengthy negotiations, contracts
between our Grinnell Corporation ("Grinnell") subsidiary and a number of local
unions affiliated with the United Association of Plumbers and Pipefitters were
not renewed. Employees in those locations, representing 64 percent of Grinnell
Fire Protection's North American union employees at the time of their strike in
1994, continue to be on strike. Grinnell has continued to operate with former
union members who have crossed over and with replacement workers. The labor
action is still pending. The action has not had, and is not expected to have,
any material adverse effect on our business or results of operations.
 

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
 
    We make a substantial effort to operate our facilities in compliance with
laws relating to the protection of the environment. Compliance has not had and
is not expected to have a material adverse effect upon our capital expenditures,
earnings or competitive position.
 
    We believe that, consistent with applicable laws and regulations, we
exercise due care and take appropriate precautions in the management of wastes.
We have received notification from the United States Environmental Protection
Agency, and from certain state environmental agencies, that conditions at a
number of sites where we and others disposed of hazardous wastes require cleanup
and other possible remedial action.
 
    We also have a number of projects underway at several of our manufacturing
facilities in order to comply with environmental laws. In addition, we remain
responsible for certain environmental issues at manufacturing locations sold by
us. These projects relate to a variety of activities, including solvent and
metal contamination clean up and oil spill equipment upgrades and replacement.
These projects, some of which are voluntary and some of which are required under
applicable law, involve both remediation expenses and capital improvements.
 
    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. Based upon
our experience with the foregoing environmental matters, we have concluded that
there is at least a reasonable possibility that remedial costs will be incurred
with respect to these issues
 
                                       14
in an aggregate amount in the range of $32.9 million to $95.2 million. As of
September 30, 2000, we had concluded that the most probable amount which would
be incurred within this range was $68.3 million, $35.4 million of such amount is
included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $32.9 million is
included in other long-term liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Based
upon information available to us, at those sites where there has been an
allocation of the liability for cleanup costs among a number of parties,
including Tyco, and such liability could be joint and several, management
believes it is probable that other responsible parties will fully pay the cost
allocated to them, except with respect to one site for which we have assumed
that one of the identified responsible parties will be unable to pay the cost
apportioned to it and that such party's cost will be reapportioned among the
remaining responsible parties. In view of our financial position and reserves
for environmental matters of $68.3 million, we have concluded that our payment
of such estimated amounts will not have a material adverse effect on our
consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 

SECURITIES LITIGATION
 
    Beginning on December 9, 1999, Tyco and two Tyco executive officers were
named as defendants in thirty-eight substantially identical class action
lawsuits that were filed in various federal courts seeking damages on account of
alleged violations of the securities laws in connection with Tyco's financial
disclosures concerning certain mergers and acquisitions and Tyco's accounting
therefor. All of the cases have been consolidated for pretrial purposes before
the United States District Court for the District of New Hampshire.
 
    The Court has selected lead plaintiffs. A Second Amended Class Action
Complaint and Jury Trial Demand was filed on November 2, 2000, purporting to
name two additional Tyco officers and a Tyco Director as defendants. In the
Second Amended Complaint, plaintiffs seek certification of a class of persons
who purchased or acquired Tyco securities during the period from October 1,
1998, through December 8, 1999, as well as certification of certain subclasses.
The plaintiffs seek money damages and/ or rescission. The Court has set a
schedule for briefing a motion to dismiss this action.
 
TYCO SUBMARINE SYSTEMS LTD./GLOBAL CROSSING LITIGATION
 
    TyCom (US) Inc. (formerly known as Tyco Submarine Systems Ltd.), a
subsidiary of Tyco, is named as the defendant in an action brought in the United
States District Court for the Southern District of New York on May 22, 2000 by
Global Crossing Ltd. and its subsidiary South American Crossing (Subsea) Ltd.
The complaint alleges that, in connection with the development of a South
American subsea cable system to be owned by South American Crossing
(Subsea) Ltd., TyCom (US) Inc. misappropriated trade secrets, committed fraud,
breached several alleged agreements, and defamed South American Crossing
(Subsea) Ltd. Plaintiffs seek damages, including punitive damages, in excess of
$1 billion, attorneys' fees and costs, and declarative and injunctive relief.
 
    TyCom (US) Inc. has answered the complaint, denying its material allegations
and raising various defenses to plaintiffs' claims. Additionally, TyCom
(US) Inc. has asserted counterclaims that South American Crossing
(Subsea) Ltd., at the instance of Global Crossing Ltd., breached the parties'
construction contract. TyCom (US) Inc. seeks damages of not less than
$150 million and attorneys' fees and costs, as well as declarative relief.
Plaintiffs have replied to the counterclaims and denied the material allegations
therein.
 
                                       15
    The Court has set February 28, 2001, as the date for completion of all party
and third-party fact discovery.
 
TYCO SUBMARINE SYSTEMS LTD./GLOBAL CROSSING ARBITRATION
 
    TyCom (US) Inc. (formerly known as Tyco Submarine Systems Ltd.), a
subsidiary of Tyco, is named as the defendant in an arbitration proceeding that
was commenced on May 22, 2000 by Atlantic Crossing Ltd., GT Landing Corp., GT
U.K. Ltd., Global Telesystems GmbH, and GT Netherlands BV (all subsidiaries of
Global Crossing Ltd.) under the international rules of the American Arbitration
Association. In the notice of arbitration, claimants assert that TyCom
(US) Inc. breached an alleged duty of loyalty and three agreements between the
parties relating to the Atlantic Crossing-1 subsea cable system. Claimants seek
unspecified monetary damages and declarative and injunctive relief. The parties
have since agreed to terminate one of the agreements at issue (the operations,
administration and maintenance agreement) in exchange for mutual releases,
payments to TyCom (US) Inc. of approximately $19 million, and a dismissal from
the arbitration of claims arising out of that agreement.
 
    TyCom (US) Inc. has responded to claimants' notice of arbitration, denying
the claims therein and asserting counterclaims for claimants' breaches of the
parties' agreements by refusing to pay certain costs, expenses, and commissions
due and owing to TyCom (US) Inc. TyCom (US) Inc. seeks the denial of all relief
sought by claimants, full disclosure and an accounting of certain contracts,
damages of more than $188 million, and an award of interest and other costs. On
July 24, 2000, claimants replied to TyCom (US) Inc.'s statement of defenses and
counterclaims, denying the material allegations therein.

are scheduled to commence on December 18, 2000. Pursuant to the parties'
commission sharing agreement, the parties have, at the arbitrators' direction,
agreed on an independent auditor who is examining the amount of sales
commissions owing to TyCom (US) Inc. under the parties' agreements.
 
TYCO SUBMARINE SYSTEMS LTD./IDT
 
    On January 31, 2000, IDT Europe B.V.B.A. filed a complaint in the United
States District Court for the District of New Jersey asserting claims against
TyCom (US) Inc. (formerly known as Tyco Submarine Systems Ltd.) and Tyco Group
S.a.r.l., a Luxembourg subsidiary of Tyco International Ltd. The claims arose
out of negotiations conducted by Tyco Group S.a.r.l. with IDT Europe B.V.B.A., a
Belgian corporation, concerning the possible formation of a joint venture for
the development of an undersea fiber optic telecommunications system to be
supplied by TyCom (US) Inc., which the complaint alleged was to be substantially
similar to the proposed TyCom Global Network. The plaintiff, IDT Europe
B.V.B.A., alleged that Tyco Group S.a.r.l. breached a Memorandum of
Understanding dated November 9, 1999 (which expired in December 1999), and
alleged implied covenants of good faith and fair dealing and made various other
claims. The plaintiff sought, among other relief such as attorneys' fees and
costs, specific performance of Tyco Group S.a.r.l.'s alleged obligation to
negotiate and execute such agreements, as well as compensatory and punitive
damages. With respect to TyCom (US) Inc., the plaintiff alleged breach of an
agreement by which the plaintiff reserved manufacturing capacity for the cable
system and authorized the undertaking of certain long-lead time activities.
Plaintiff also alleged that TyCom (US) Inc. failed to negotiate in good faith a
system supply agreement for the cable system. The plaintiff sought, among other
relief such as attorneys' fees and costs, compensatory damages of $1 billion,
punitive damages of $3 billion and injunctive relief precluding TyCom (US) Inc.
from undertaking any business activity contrary to the terms of the Instruction
to Proceed. On June 5, 2000, the court granted Tyco Group S.a.r.l. and TyCom
(US) Inc.'s motion to dismiss.
 
    On March 24, 2000, Tyco Group S.a.r.l., TyCom (US) Inc., Tyco International
Ltd., Tyco International (US) Inc., and TyCom Ltd. filed a complaint in the
Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, asserting claims
against IDT Europe B.V.B.A. and IDT Corporation
 
                                       16
(collectively "IDT"). The complaint alleged that IDT filed a baseless lawsuit in
federal court in New Jersey, improperly disclosed confidential information to
the press and otherwise engaged in a pattern of conduct with the purpose and
effect of obstructing efforts to build the TyCom Global Network and to finance
it principally through the initial public offering of TyCom shares. The
complaint demanded compensatory damages of at least $1 billion, punitive damages
and declaratory and injunctive relief. On June 19, 2000, the court denied IDT
Corporation's motion to dismiss and referred IDT Europe B.V.B.A.'s motion to
dismiss to a referee to hear and report with recommendations.
 
    On June 13, 2000, IDT Europe B.V.B.A. filed a complaint in the Superior
Court of New Jersey, Law Division, Morris County, against Tyco Group (S.a.r.l.),
TyCom (US) Inc., Tyco International Ltd., and Tyco International (US) Inc. The
complaint made factual allegations similar to those previously asserted in the
federal complaint in the United States District Court for the District of New
Jersey, along with additional allegations regarding, among other things, a
purported agreement between TyCom (US) Inc. and Global Crossing. The complaint
asserted claims, similar to those previously asserted in the complaint in
federal court. The plaintiff sought, among other relief such as attorneys' fees
and costs, specific performance, compensatory damages of $1 billion, punitive
damages of $3 billion and injunctive relief. On August 18, 2000, the Court
granted the defendants' motion to dismiss without prejudice, and on the
condition that defendants may not defend any subsequent action by plaintiff upon
the grounds of statute of limitations.
 
    On October 10, 2000, Tyco Group (S.a.r.l.), TyCom (US) Inc., Tyco
International Ltd., Tyco International (US) Inc., and TyCom Ltd. entered into a
Settlement Agreement with IDT Europe B.V.B.A. and IDT Corporation which
encompasses all actual and potential claims asserted in the actions before the
United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, the Supreme Court
of the State of New York, County of New York, and the Supreme Court of New
Jersey, Law Division, Morris County. Under the terms of the Settlement
Agreement, TyCom Ltd. granted IDT Europe B.V.B.A. rights to use a certain
limited amount of capacity on the transatlantic and transpacific segments of the
first phase of the TGN free of charge.
 
    Tyco has agreed to indemnify TyCom (US) Inc. for certain losses and expenses
with respect to the claims brought in these federal litigation and arbitration
proceedings, excluding losses and expenses arising out of any award of
injunctive relief.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Tyco International Ltd. In our opinion, based upon our audits and the report of other auditors, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Tyco International Ltd. and its subsidiaries at September 30, 2000 and 1999, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the accompanying financial statement schedule presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of AMP Incorporated, a wholly owned subsidiary, as of September 30, 1998, and for the year ended September 30, 1998, which statements reflect total assets of 20.1% of the related consolidated total assets as of September 30, 1998, and net sales of 29.0% of the related consolidated total sales for the year ended September 30, 1998. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report thereon has been furnished to us, and our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for AMP Incorporated, as of and for the period described above, is based solely on the report of the other auditors. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the report of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. PRICEWATERHOUSECOOPERS Hamilton, Bermuda October 24, 2000, except as to Note 25 which is as of December 4, 2000 26 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of AMP Incorporated: We have audited the consolidated balance sheet of AMP Incorporated (a Pennsylvania corporation) and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1998, the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity and cash flows for the year ended September 30, 1998, which are not included herein. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of AMP Incorporated and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1998, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended September 30, 1998, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. Schedule II, which is not included herein, is presented for purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and is not part of the basic financial statements. This schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, fairly states in all material respects the financial data required to be set forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) - a broad range of consulting, engineering, construction management and operating services for the water, wastewater, environmental, transportation and infrastructure markets. BASIS OF PRESENTATION--The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in United States dollars in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. As described more fully in Note 2, Tyco merged with United States Surgical Corporation ("USSC") and AMP Incorporated ("AMP") on October 1, 1998 and April 2, 1999, respectively. These transactions are referred to herein as the "mergers." The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of Tyco, a company incorporated in Bermuda, and its subsidiaries. They have been prepared following the pooling of interests method of accounting for the mergers and, therefore, reflect the combined financial position, operating results and cash flows of USSC and AMP as if they had been combined for all periods presented. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION--Tyco is a holding company whose assets consist of its investments in its subsidiaries, intercompany balances and holdings of cash and cash equivalents. The businesses of the consolidated group are conducted through the Company's subsidiaries. The Company consolidates companies in which it owns or controls more than fifty percent of the voting shares unless control is likely to be temporary. The results of companies acquired or disposed of during the fiscal year are included in the consolidated financial statements from the effective date of acquisition or up to the date of disposal except in the case of mergers accounted for as pooling of interests (See Note 2). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. CASH EQUIVALENTS--All highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. INVENTORIES--Inventories are recorded at the lower of cost (primarily first-in, first-out) or market value. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT--Property, plant and equipment is principally recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Maintenance and repair expenditures are charged to expense when incurred. For the years ended September 30, 2000, 1999 and 1998, the Company capitalized interest of $10.8 million, $8.7 million and $9.0 million, respectively. The straight-line method of depreciation is used over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as follows: Buildings and related improvements.............. 5 to 50 years Leasehold improvements.......................... Remaining term of the lease Subscriber systems.............................. 10 to 14 years Other plant, machinery, equipment and furniture and fixtures.................................. 2 to 25 years Gains and losses arising on the disposal of property, plant and equipment are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and were not material. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS--Goodwill, which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 10 to 40 years, was $13,723.0 million and $10,639.3 million, net, at September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Accumulated amortization amounted to $959.3 million at September 30, 2000 and $615.6 million at September 30, 1999. Other intangible assets were $2,609.6 million and $1,519.6 million, net, at September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. These amounts include patents, trademarks, customer contracts and other items, which are being amortized on a straight-line basis over lives ranging from 2 to 40 years. At 33 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) September 30, 2000 and 1999, accumulated amortization amounted to $525.2 million and $319.5 million, respectively. INVESTMENTS--The Company accounts for its long-term investments that represent less than twenty percent ownership using Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." This standard requires that certain debt and equity securities be adjusted to market value at the end of each accounting period. Unrealized market gains and losses are charged to earnings if the securities are traded for short-term profit. Otherwise, such unrealized gains and losses are charged or credited to shareholders' equity. Management determines the proper classification of investments in obligations with fixed maturities and marketable equity securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designations as of each balance sheet date. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments, as determined on a specific identification basis, are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and were not material. As of September 30, 2000, the Company had Available-for-Sale equity investments with a fair market value of $1,320.3 million and a cost basis of $218.7 million. The gross unrealized gains of $1,118.0 million and gross unrealized losses of $16.4 million have been recorded net of deferred taxes of $18.1 million, and have been included as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Other investments for which the Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence and for which there is not a readily determinable market value are accounted for under the cost method of accounting. The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of its investments accounted for under the cost method of accounting and, as of September 30, 2000 and 1999, such investments were recorded at the lower of cost or estimated net realizable value. For investments in which the Company owns or controls twenty percent or more of the voting shares, or over which it exerts significant influence over operating and financial policies, the equity method of accounting is used. The Company's share of net income or losses of equity investments is included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and was not material in any period presented. Investments are included in Other Assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. LONG-LIVED ASSETS--The Company periodically evaluates the net realizable value of long-lived assets, including goodwill and other intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, relying on a number of factors including operating results, business plans, economic projections and anticipated future cash flows. An impairment in the carrying value of an asset is assessed when the undiscounted, expected future operating cash flows derived from the asset are less than its carrying value. REVENUE RECOGNITION--Revenue from the sale of services or products is recognized as services are rendered or shipments are made. Subscriber billings for services not yet rendered are deferred and taken into income as earned, and the deferred element is included in current liabilities. Revenue from the installation of electronic security systems is recognized when installations are completed. Contract sales for the installation of fire protection systems, underwater cable systems and other construction related projects are recorded on the percentage-of-completion method. Profits recognized on contracts in process are based upon estimated contract revenue and related cost to completion. Revisions in cost estimates as contracts progress have the effect of increasing or decreasing profits in the current period. Provisions for anticipated losses are made in the period in which they first become determinable. Accounts receivable include amounts billed under retainage provisions primarily for fire protection and electronic contracts. The retention balances were $56.6 million and $33.3 million at September 30, 34 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 2000 and 1999, respectively, and become due upon contract completion and acceptance. The balance as of September 30, 2000 is expected to be substantially collected during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2001. SHARE PREMIUM AND CONTRIBUTED SURPLUS--In accordance with the Bermuda Companies Act of 1981, when the Company issues shares for cash at a premium to their par value, the resulting premium is credited to a share premium account, a non-distributable reserve. When the Company issues shares in exchange for shares of another company, the excess of the fair value of the shares acquired over the par value of the shares issued by the Company is credited, where applicable, to contributed surplus, which is, subject to certain conditions, a distributable reserve. INCOME TAXES--Deferred tax liabilities and assets are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the differences between the consolidated financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, using tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets if, based upon the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT--Research and development expenditures are expensed when incurred and are included in cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. ADVERTISING--Advertising costs are expensed when incurred. ISSUANCE OF STOCK BY A SUBSIDIARY--Gains on the issuance of common shares by a subsidiary are included in net income. TRANSLATION OF FOREIGN CURRENCY--Assets and liabilities of the Company's subsidiaries operating outside the United States which account in a functional currency other than U.S. dollars, other than those operating in highly inflationary environments, are translated into U.S. dollars using year-end exchange rates. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates effective during the year. Foreign currency translation gains and losses are included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within shareholders' equity. For subsidiaries operating in highly inflationary environments, inventories and property, plant and equipment, including related expenses, are translated at the rate of exchange in effect on the date the assets were acquired, while other assets and liabilities are translated at year-end exchange rates. Translation adjustments for these operations are included in net income. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions, the amounts of which are not material, are included in net income. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS--From time to time the Company enters into a variety of forward foreign currency exchange contracts, cross-currency swaps, currency options, forward commodity contracts and interest rate swaps in its management of foreign currency and commodity exposures and interest costs. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts and cross-currency swaps, used to mitigate the impact of changes in currency exchange rates on intercompany cross-border obligations, are accounted for consistent with the related intercompany transactions. Under cross-currency swaps, which principally hedge certain net foreign currency denominated investments, changes in valuation are included in the currency translation adjustment component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within shareholders' equity. The interest differentials on cross-currency swaps are included in interest expense. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts and currency options, acquired for the purpose of 35 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) reducing exposure to currency fluctuations associated with expected cash flows denominated in currencies other than the functional currencies, are marked to market with realized and unrealized gains or losses reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses. Under forward commodity contracts which hedge anticipated purchases of certain metals and other materials used in manufacturing operations payments are received or paid based on the differential between the contract price and the actual price of the underlying commodity. Gains or losses on forward commodity contracts are recorded as adjustments to the value of the purchased commodity. Interest rate swaps hedge interest rates on certain indebtedness and involve the exchange of fixed and floating rate interest payment obligations over the life of the related agreement without the exchange of the notional amount. The interest differentials to be paid or received under interest rate swaps are recognized over the life of the underlying agreement or indebtedness, respectively, as an adjustment to interest expense. Receivables and payables related to unrealized increases and decreases in the values of derivative financial instruments are included in other current assets and other current liabilities, respectively, and are not material. USE OF ESTIMATES--The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make extensive use of certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Significant estimates in these consolidated financial statements include merger, restructuring and other non-recurring (credits) charges, purchase accounting reserves, allowances for doubtful accounts receivable, estimates of future cash flows associated with assets, asset impairments, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, loss contingencies, net realizable value of inventories, estimated contract revenues and related costs, environmental liabilities, income taxes and tax valuation reserves, and the determination of discount and other rate assumptions for pension and post-retirement employee benefit expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates. ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS--In June 1998 and June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" and SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities." These statements establish accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. SFAS Nos. 133 and 138 also require that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. SFAS Nos. 133 and 138 are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The Company does not expect that the adoption of these new standards will have a material impact on the Company's earnings or financial position. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" ("SAB 101"), which clarifies certain existing accounting principles for the timing of revenue recognition and its classification in the financial statements. In June 2000, the SEC delayed the required implementation date of SAB 101. As a result, SAB 101 will not be effective for the Company until the quarter ended September 30, 2001. In October 2000, the SEC issued further guidance on the interpretations included in SAB 101. The Company is currently analyzing the impact of this Staff Accounting Bulletin. 36 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140 "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities--a replacement of FASB Statement No. 125" ("SFAS 140"). SFAS 140 revises the standards for accounting for securitizations and other transfers of financial assets and collateral and requires certain disclosures, but it carries over most of SFAS 125's provisions without reconsideration. This Statement is effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001. This Statement is effective for recognition and reclassification of collateral and for disclosures relating to securitization transactions and collateral for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000. The Company is currently analyzing this new standard. RECLASSIFICATIONS--Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with current year presentation. STOCK SPLITS--Per share amounts and share data have been retroactively restated to give effect to the two-for-one stock splits distributed on October 22, 1997 and October 21, 1999, both effected in the form of a stock dividend (See Note 10). 2. POOLING OF INTERESTS TRANSACTIONS On April 2, 1999 and October 1, 1998, Tyco merged with AMP and USSC, respectively. A total of approximately 329.2 million and 118.4 million Tyco common shares, respectively, were issued to the former shareholders of these companies. Both of the merger transactions discussed above were accounted for under the pooling of interests accounting method, which presents as a single interest common shareholder interests which were previously independent. The historical consolidated financial statements for periods prior to the consummation of the combination are restated as though the companies had been combined during such periods. Aggregate fees and expenses related to the mergers and to the integration of the combined companies have been expensed in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in the period in which each transaction was consummated, as required under the pooling of interests method of accounting (See Notes 12 and 16). 37 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 2. POOLING OF INTERESTS TRANSACTIONS (CONTINUED) Combined and separate results of Tyco, USSC and AMP for the periods preceding the mergers were as follows ($ in millions): TYCO USSC AMP ADJUSTMENTS COMBINED --------- -------- -------- ----------- --------- Six months ended March 31, 1999 (unaudited) (i) Net sales.............................. $ 7,776.8 $ -- $2,675.5 $ -- $10,452.3 Operating income (loss)................ 906.1 -- (405.2) -- 500.9 Extraordinary items, net of taxes......

Also includes a credit of $8.3 million representing a revision of estimates related to Tyco's 1997 merger, restructuring and other non-recurring accruals. (ii) Includes restructuring and other non-recurring charges of $164.4 million primarily related to AMP's profit improvement plan and $92.5 million principally related to costs incurred by USSC to exit certain businesses. (iii) As a result of the combination of Tyco and AMP, an income tax adjustment was recorded to conform tax accounting. In connection with the USSC merger, the Company assumed an operating lease for USSC's North Haven facilities. In December 1998, the Company assumed the debt related to the North Haven property of approximately $211 million. The assumption of the debt combined with the settlement of certain other obligations in the amount of $23 million resulted in the Company acquiring ownership of the North Haven property for a total cost of $234 million. 38 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 3. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES FISCAL 2000 During Fiscal 2000, the Company purchased businesses for an aggregate cost of $5,162.0 million, consisting of $4,246.5 million in cash, net of cash acquired, the issuance of approximately 15.6 million common shares valued at $671.4 million and the assumption of $244.1 million in debt. In addition, $544.2 million of cash was paid during the year for purchase accounting liabilities related to current and prior years' acquisitions. The cash portions of the acquisition costs were funded utilizing cash on hand, the issuance of long-term debt and borrowings under the Company's commercial paper program. Each of these acquisitions was accounted for as a purchase, and the results of operations of the acquired companies have been included in the consolidated results of the Company from their respective acquisition dates. In connection with these acquisitions, the Company recorded purchase accounting liabilities of $426.2 million for transaction costs and the costs of integrating the acquired companies within the various Tyco business segments. Details regarding these purchase accounting liabilities are set forth below. At the time each purchase acquisition is made, the Company records each asset acquired and each liability assumed at its estimated fair value, which amount is subject to future adjustment when appraisals or other further information are obtained. The excess of (a) the total consideration paid for the acquired company over (b) the fair value of assets acquired less liabilities assumed and purchase accounting liabilities recorded is recorded as goodwill. As a result of acquisitions completed in Fiscal 2000, and adjustments to the fair values of assets and liabilities and purchase accounting liabilities recorded for acquisitions completed prior to Fiscal 2000, the Company recorded approximately $5,206.8 million in goodwill and other intangibles.

These purchase accounting liabilities relate primarily to the acquisitions of GSI, AFC Cable, Siemens EC, Praegitzer, Critchley and the Electronics OEM Business of Thomas & Betts. In connection with the Fiscal 2000 purchase acquisitions, the Company began to formulate plans at the date of each acquisition for workforce reductions and the closure and consolidation of an aggregate of 102 facilities. The Company has communicated with the employees of the acquired companies to 40 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 3. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES (CONTINUED) announce the benefit arrangements. The costs of employee termination benefits relate to the elimination of 2,895 positions in the United States, 2,434 positions in Europe, 1,135 positions in Canada and Latin America and 751 positions in the Asia-Pacific region, primarily consisting of manufacturing and distribution, administrative, technical, and sales and marketing personnel. Facilities designated for closure include 43 facilities in the United States, 32 facilities in Europe, 24 facilities in the Asia-Pacific region and 3 facilities in Canada, primarily consisting of manufacturing plants, sales offices, corporate administrative facilities and research and development facilities. At September 30, 2000, 4,023 employees had been terminated and 53 facilities had been closed or consolidated. In connection with the purchase acquisitions consummated during Fiscal 2000, liabilities for approximately $96.8 million for severance and related costs, $53.3 million for the shutdown and consolidation of acquired facilities and $48.3 million in transaction and other direct costs remained on the balance sheet at September 30, 2000. The Company expects that the termination of employees and consolidation of facilities related to all such acquisitions will be substantially complete within one year of plan finalization, except for certain long-term contractual obligations. During Fiscal 2000, the Company reduced its estimate of purchase accounting liabilities related to acquisitions in prior years by $117.8 million and, accordingly, goodwill and related deferred tax assets were reduced by an equivalent amount. These changes primarily resulted from costs being less than originally anticipated on certain acquisitions. In addition, the Company finalized its business plan for the exiting of activities and the involuntary termination of employees in connection with the 1999 acquisition and integration of Raychem, and as a result recorded $90.0 million of purchase accounting liabilities. During Fiscal 2000, the Company sold certain of its businesses for net proceeds of approximately $74.4 million in cash that consist primarily of certain businesses within the Healthcare and Specialty Products segment. The following unaudited pro forma data summarize the results of operations for the periods indicated as if the Fiscal 2000 acquisitions and divestitures had been completed as of the beginning of the periods presented. The pro forma data give effect to actual operating results prior to the acquisitions and divestitures. Adjustments to interest expense, goodwill amortization and income taxes related to the Fiscal 2000 acquisitions are reflected in the pro forma data. No effect has been given to cost reductions or operating synergies in this presentation. These pro forma amounts do not purport to be indicative of the results that would have actually been obtained if the acquisitions and divestitures had occurred as of the beginning of the periods presented or that may be obtained in the future.

ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES (CONTINUED) FISCAL 1999 In addition to the pooling of interests transactions discussed in Note 2, during Fiscal 1999, the Company purchased businesses for an aggregate cost of $6,923.3 million, consisting of $4,546.8 million in cash, net of cash acquired, the issuance of 32.4 million common shares valued at $1,449.6 million and the assumption of $926.9 million in debt. In addition, $354.4 million of cash was paid during the year for purchase accounting liabilities related to 1999 and prior years' acquisitions. The cash portions of the acquisition costs were funded utilizing cash on hand, the issuance of long-term debt and borrowings under the Company's commercial paper program. Each of these acquisitions was accounted for as a purchase, and the results of operations of the acquired companies have been included in the consolidated results of the Company from their respective acquisition dates. In connection with these acquisitions, the Company recorded purchase accounting liabilities of $525.4 million for transaction costs and the costs of integrating the acquired companies within the various Tyco business segments. Details regarding these purchase accounting liabilities are set forth below. During Fiscal 1999, the Company spent a total of $4,901.2 million in cash related to the acquisition of businesses, consisting of $4,546.8 million of purchase price (net of cash acquired) plus $354.4 million of cash paid out during the year for purchase accounting liabilities related to 1999 and prior years' acquisitions.

The $234.3 million of severance and related costs covers employee termination benefits for approximately 5,620 employees located throughout the world, consisting primarily of manufacturing and distribution employees to be terminated as a result of the shut down and consolidation of production facilities and, to a lesser extent, administrative, technical and sales and marketing personnel. At September 30, 2000, 5,199 employees had been terminated and $42.8 million in severance and related costs remained in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company expects that the remaining employee terminations will be completed in Fiscal 2001. The $174.8 million of exit costs are associated with the closure and consolidation of facilities involving 183 facilities located primarily in the Asia-Pacific region and the United States. These facilities include manufacturing plants, sales offices, corporate administrative facilities and research and development facilities. Included within these costs are accruals for non-cancelable leases associated with 42 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 3. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES (CONTINUED) certain of these facilities. Approximately 176 facilities had been closed or consolidated at September 30, 2000. The remaining facilities include primarily large manufacturing plants, which are expected to be shut down in Fiscal 2001. Expenses in connection with the closure of these remaining facilities, as well as the expiration of non-cancelable leases (less any expected sublease income for facilities already closed), comprise the approximately $70.1 million for facility related costs remaining in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2000. During Fiscal 1999, the Company reduced its estimate of purchase accounting liabilities relating primarily to Fiscal 1998 acquisitions by $90.0 million and, accordingly, goodwill and related deferred tax assets were reduced by an equivalent amount. These changes primarily resulted from costs being less than originally anticipated for acquisitions consummated prior to Fiscal 1999. During Fiscal 1999, the Company sold certain of its businesses for net proceeds of approximately $926.8 million in cash. These consist primarily of certain businesses within the Flow Control Products and Services segment, including The Mueller Company and portions of Grinnell Supply Sales and Manufacturing, and certain businesses within the Healthcare and Specialty Products segment. The aggregate net gain recognized on the sale of these businesses was not material. In connection with the Flow Control divestiture, the Company granted a non-exclusive license to the buyer for use of certain intellectual property and is entitled to receive future royalties equal to a percentage of net sales of the businesses sold. The Company also granted an option to the buyer to purchase certain intellectual property in the future at the then fair market value. FISCAL 1998 During Fiscal 1998, the Company acquired companies for an aggregate cost of $4,559.4 million, consisting of $4,154.8 million in cash, the assumption of approximately $260 million in debt and the issuance of 765,544 common shares valued at $19.2 million and 1,254 subsidiary preference shares valued at $125.4 million. The cash portions of the acquisition costs were funded utilizing cash on hand, borrowings under bank credit agreements, proceeds of approximately $1,245.0 million from the sale of common shares, and borrowings under the Company's uncommitted lines of credit. Each of these acquisitions was accounted for as a purchase, and the results of operations of the acquired companies were included in the consolidated results of the Company from their respective acquisition dates. As a result of the acquisitions, the Company recorded approximately $3,947.0 million in goodwill and other intangibles. As of September 30, 2000, $14.3 million in employee severance, principally payments to employees previously severed, and $28.7 million of facility related costs, principally for the expiration of non-cancelable leases on vacant premises, remained in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. In July 1998, the Company acquired the U.S. operations of Crosby Valve, Inc. in exchange for 1,254 cumulative dividend preference shares of a newly created subsidiary, valued at $125.4 million. The subsidiary has authorized 2,000 cumulative dividend preference shares. The holders of these preference shares have the option to require the Company to repurchase the preference shares at par value plus unpaid dividends at any time after July 2001. The outstanding preference shares were issued at $100,000 par value each and have been classified in other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Cash dividends accumulate on a preferred basis, whether or not earned or declared, at the rate of $3,750 per share per annum. Upon liquidation, the holders of shares are entitled to receive an amount equal to $100,000 per share, plus any unpaid dividends. These preference shares may be redeemed by the subsidiary at any time on or after December 31, 2008 at a price per share of $100,000, plus unpaid dividends. In October 2000, the Company redeemed these preference shares for $128.7 million. 43 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 4.

("TIG"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, initiated a commercial paper program with an aggregate face value of up to $1.75 billion. In February 2000, TIG increased its borrowing capacity under the commercial paper program to $4.5 billion. The notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company. Proceeds from the sale of the notes are used for working capital and other corporate purposes. TIG is required to maintain an available unused balance under its bank credit agreement sufficient to support amounts outstanding under the commercial paper program. In February 2000, TIG renegotiated its revolving credit agreement with a group of commercial banks, giving it the right to 44 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 4. INDEBTEDNESS (CONTINUED) borrow up to $4.5 billion until February 9, 2001, with the option to extend to February 9, 2002. TIG has the option to increase the $4.5 billion credit facility up to $5.0 billion. TIG also has a $0.5 billion multiyear revolving credit facility which expires on February 12, 2003. Interest payable on borrowings under the two facilities is variable based upon TIG's option to select a Euro rate plus margins ranging from 0.41% to 0.43%, or a base rate, as defined. If the outstanding principal amount of loans equals or exceeds 25% of the commitments, the Euro margins are increased by 0.125%. The obligations of TIG under the credit agreements are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company. TIG is using the credit agreements to fully support its commercial paper program and therefore expects these facilities to remain largely undrawn. The Company is required to meet certain covenants under the credit agreements, none of which is considered restrictive to the operations of the Company. (ii) In June 2000, TIG initiated a European commercial paper program under which it could initially issue notes with an aggregate face value of up to E 300 million. In September 2000, TIG increased its borrowing capacity under the European commercial paper program to E 500 million. The notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company. Proceeds from the sale of these notes are used for working capital and other corporate purposes. (iii) International overdrafts and demand loans represent borrowings by AMP from various banks and other holders. All overdrafts and loans mature within one year from the balance sheet date. The weighted-average interest rate on all international overdrafts and demand loans during Fiscal 2000 and Fiscal 1999 was 5.1% and 5.3%, respectively. (iv) In August 1999, TIG issued $500 million floating rate notes due 2000, $500 million floating rate notes due 2001, $1 billion 6.875% notes due 2002 and Y 10 billion (approximately $89.7 million) 0.57% notes due 2000. The $500 million floating rate notes bear interest at LIBOR plus 0.6% for the 2000 notes and LIBOR plus 0.7% for the 2001 notes. These notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Tyco (See Note 24). The net proceeds of approximately $2,080.3 million were used to repay borrowings under TIG's $4.5 billion commercial paper program discussed above. In connection with the $1 billion 6.875% notes, TIG entered into an interest rate swap agreement expiring in September 2002, under which TIG will receive a fixed rate of 6.875% and will pay a floating rate based on the average of two different LIBO rates, as defined, plus 3.755%. In June 2000, TIG offered to exchange all of its $1 billion 6.875% private placement notes due 2002 for public notes. The form and terms of the public notes are identical in all material respects to the form and terms of the outstanding private placement notes of the corresponding series, except that the public notes are not subject to restrictions on transfer under United States securities laws. In connection with the Yen denominated 0.57% notes, TIG entered into a cross-currency swap expiring in September 2000, under which TIG received a payment of Y 10 billion plus accrued interest at a rate of 0.57% and made quarterly U.S. dollar payments based on LIBOR plus 0.60%, as well as a final payment at maturity of approximately $89.7 million. (v) In June 1998, TIG issued $750 million 6.125% notes due 2001, $750 million 6.375% notes due 2005, $750 million 6.25% Dealer Remarketable Securities ("Drs.") due 2013 and $500 million 7.0% notes due 2028 in a public offering. Interest is payable semi-annually in June and December. Under the terms of the Drs., the Remarketing Dealer has an option to remarket the Drs. in June 2003, which if exercised would subject the Drs. to mandatory tender to the Remarketing Dealer and reset the interest rate to an adjusted fixed rate until June 2013. If the Remarketing Dealer does not exercise its option, then all Drs. are required to be tendered to the Company in June 2003. Repayment of amounts outstanding under these debt securities is fully and 45 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 4. INDEBTEDNESS (CONTINUED) unconditionally guaranteed by Tyco (See Note 24). The net proceeds of approximately $2,744.5 million were ultimately used to repay borrowings under TIG's bank credit agreement and uncommitted lines of credit. In December 1998, TIG terminated two interest rate swap agreements with notional amounts of $650 million each, which were entered into in June 1998 with a financial institution to hedge a portion of the fixed rate terms of the public notes. (vi) In July 2000, TIG issued a E 75 million floating rate note due 2002, which bears interest at EURIBOR plus 0.42%. (vii) In October 1998, TIG issued $800 million of debt in a private placement offering consisting of two series of restricted notes: $400 million of 5.875% notes due November 2004 and $400 million of 6.125% notes due November 2008. The notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Tyco. The net proceeds of approximately $791.7 million were used to repay borrowings under TIG's bank credit agreement. At the same time, TIG also entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $400 million to hedge the fixed rate terms of the 6.125% notes due 2008. Under this agreement, which expires in November 2008, TIG will receive payments at a fixed rate of 6.125% and will make floating rate payments based on LIBOR. Subsequently, during the third and fourth quarters of Fiscal 1999, TIG exchanged all of the $400 million 5.875% private placement notes due 2004 and $400 million 6.125% private placement notes due 2008 for public notes (See Note 24). The form and terms of the public notes of each series are identical in all material respects to the form and terms of the outstanding private placement notes of the corresponding series, except that the public notes are not subject to restrictions on transfer under the United States securities laws. (viii) In April 2000, TIG issued E600 million (approximately $565.7 million) 6.125% notes due 2007 in a private placement offering. The notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Tyco. The net proceeds were used to repay borrowings under TIG's commercial paper program. In September 2000, TIG offered to exchange all of its E600 million (approximately $565.7 million) 6.125% notes due 2007 for public notes. The form and terms of the public notes are identical in all material respects to the form and terms of the outstanding private placement notes of the corresponding series, except that the public notes are not subject to restrictions on transfer under United States securities laws. (ix) In October 1998, Raychem issued notes in the amount of $400 million. The notes mature on October 15, 2008, and bear interest at a rate of 7.2% per annum. (x) In March 1998, USSC issued $300 million 7.25% senior notes due March 2008, which are not redeemable prior to maturity and require semi-annual interest payments. In February 1999, the Company completed a tender offer in which $292 million of the $300 million principal amount of the notes outstanding were purchased. (xi) In January 1999, TIG issued $400 million of its 6.125% notes due 2009 and $800 million of its 6.875% notes due 2029 in a public offering. The notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Tyco (See Note 24). The net proceeds of approximately $1,173.7 million were used to repay borrowings under TIG's bank credit agreement. At the same time, TIG also entered into an interest rate swap agreement to hedge the fixed rate terms of the $400 million notes due 2009. Under the agreement, which expires in January 2009, TIG will receive payments at a fixed rate of 6.125% and will make floating rate payments based on an average of three different LIBO rates, as defined, plus a spread. 46 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 4. INDEBTEDNESS (CONTINUED) (xii) In July 1995, ADT Operations, Inc. issued $776.3 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of its zero coupon subordinated Liquid Yield Option Notes ("LYONs") maturing July 2010. The issue price per LYON was $383.09, being 38.309% of the principal amount of $1,000 per LYON at maturity, reflecting a yield to maturity of 6.5% per annum (computed on a semi-annual bond equivalent basis). The discount amortization on the LYONs is being charged as interest expense through the Consolidated Statements of Operations on a basis linked to the yield to maturity. The LYONs discount amortization amounted to $2.4 million in Fiscal 2000, $6.0 million in Fiscal 1999 and $11.0 million in Fiscal 1998. Each LYON is exchangeable for common shares of the Company at the option of the holder at any time prior to maturity, unless previously redeemed or otherwise purchased by ADT Operations, Inc., at an exchange rate of 54.352 common shares per LYON. During Fiscal 2000 and Fiscal 1999, respectively, 32,169 and 147,418 LYONs with carrying values of $16.4 million and $72.3 million were exchanged for 1,748,442 and 8,012,468 common shares of the Company. Any LYON will be purchased by ADT Operations, Inc., at the option of the holder, as of July 2002 for a purchase price per LYON of $599.46. At that time, if the holder exercises the option, the Company has the right to deliver all or a portion of the purchase price in the form of common shares of the Company. Beginning July 2002, the LYONs are redeemable for cash at any time at the option of ADT Operations, Inc., in whole or in part, at redemption prices equal to the issue price plus accrued original issue discount to the date of redemption. The LYONs are guaranteed on a subordinated basis by the Company. (xiii) International bank loans represent term borrowings by Tyco Electronics from various commercial banks. Borrowings are repayable in varying amounts through 2013. The weighted-average interest rate on all international bank loans as of September 30, 2000 and 1999 was 3.3% and 3.9%, respectively. (xiv) The financing lease obligation relates to USSC's European headquarters office building and distribution center complex in Elancourt, France. The French Franc denominated financing lease requires principal amortization in varying amounts over the eleven year term of the lease with a balloon payment of approximately 42 million French Francs ($6 million) at the end of the lease. Interest is payable at a rate approximately 1.4% above Paris Interbank Offered Rate (PIBOR). The effective interest rate on the financing lease debt was approximately 5.0% and 4.0% per annum at September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The weighted-average rate of interest on all long-term debt was 6.5% and 6.2% during Fiscal 2000 and Fiscal 1999, respectively. The weighted-average rate of interest on all variable long-term debt was 6.5% and 5.6% as of September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The impact of the Company's interest rate swap activities on its weighted-average borrowing rate was not material in any year. The impact on reported interest expense was a reduction of $6.6 million, $0.9 million and $1.9 million for Fiscal 2000, Fiscal 1999 and Fiscal 1998, respectively. The aggregate amounts of total debt maturing during the next five years are as follows (in millions): $1,537.2 in Fiscal 2001, $4,075.5 in Fiscal 2002, $53.9 in Fiscal 2003, $129.4 in Fiscal 2004 and $1,161.6 in Fiscal 2005. 47 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 5. SALE OF ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE The Company has an agreement under which several of its operating subsidiaries sell a defined pool of trade accounts receivable to a limited purpose subsidiary of the Company. The subsidiary, a separate corporate entity, holds these receivables and sells participating interests in such accounts receivable to financiers who, in turn, purchase and receive ownership and security interests in those receivables. As collections reduce accounts receivable included in the pool, the operating subsidiaries sell new receivables to the limited purpose subsidiary. The limited purpose subsidiary has the risk of credit loss on the receivables and, accordingly, the full amount of the allowance for doubtful accounts has been retained in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The availability under the program is $500 million. At September 30, 2000 and 1999, $450 million and $350 million, respectively, was utilized under the program. The proceeds from the sales were used to reduce borrowings under TIG's commercial paper program and are reported as operating cash flows in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The proceeds of sale are less than the face amount of accounts receivable sold by an amount that approximates the cost that the limited purpose subsidiary would incur if it were to issue commercial paper backed by these accounts receivable. The discount from the face amount is accounted for as a loss on the sale of receivables and has been included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Such discount aggregated $25.7 million, $15.7 million, and $17.3 million, or 6.6%, 5.6% and 5.8% of the weighted-average balance of the receivables outstanding, during Fiscal 2000, Fiscal 1999 and Fiscal 1998, respectively. The operating subsidiaries retain collection and administrative responsibilities for the participating interests in the defined pool. 6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, long-term investments, accounts payable, debt and derivative financial instruments. The notional amounts of the derivative financial instruments were as follows ($ in millions): SEPTEMBER 30, ------------------- 2000 1999 -------- -------- Forward foreign currency exchange contracts................. $2,867.5 $2,717.3 Currency options............................................ -- 160.0 Cross-currency swaps........................................ 150.0 447.9 Forward commodity contracts................................. 112.0 104.0 Interest rate swaps......................................... 1,800.0 1,800.0 While it is not the Company's intention to terminate the above derivative financial instruments, fair values were estimated, based on market rates or quotes from brokers, which represented the amounts that the Company would receive or pay if the instruments were terminated at the balance sheet dates. These fair values indicated that the termination of forward foreign currency exchange contracts, cross-currency swap agreements, currency options, forward commodity contracts and interest rate swaps at September 30, 2000 would have resulted in a $279.0 million gain, a $15.3 million loss, a zero gain, an $11.1 million gain and a $95.7 million loss, respectively, and at September 30, 1999 would have resulted in a $52.7 million loss, a $27.0 million loss, a $0.7 million loss, a $13.0 million gain and a $66.9 million loss, respectively. At September 30, 2000 and 1999, the book values of derivative financial instruments recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets approximated fair values. 48 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED) The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, long-term investments and accounts payable approximated book value at September 30, 2000 and 1999. The fair value of debt was approximately $10,851.6 million (book value of $10,999.0 million) and $10,120.4 million (book value of $10,122.2 million) at September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, based on discounted cash flow analyses using current interest rates. The Company's financial instruments present certain market and credit risks; however, concentrations of credit risk are mitigated as the Company deals with a variety of major banks worldwide and its accounts receivable are spread among a number of major industries, customers and geographic areas. None of the Company's financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk would result in a significant loss to the Company if a counterparty failed to perform according to the terms of its agreement. The Company does not require collateral or other security to be furnished by the counterparties to its financial instruments. The Company does, however, maintain reserves for potential credit losses on financial instruments. 7. INCOME TAXES The provision for income taxes and the reconciliation between the notional United States federal income taxes at the statutory rate on consolidated income before taxes and the Company's income tax provision are as follows ($ in millions): YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, ------------------------------ 2000 1999 1998 -------- -------- -------- Notional U.S. federal income taxes at the statutory rate.................................................... $2,262.7 $596.8 $596.0 Adjustments to reconcile to the Company's income tax provision: U.S. state income tax provision, net.................... 46.7 33.6 15.8 SFAS 121 impairment..................................... 6.4 43.5 -- Non-U.S. net earnings...................................

The non-U.S. component of income before income taxes was $3,343.6 million, $1,376.3 million and $640.6 million for Fiscal 2000, Fiscal 1999 and Fiscal 1998, respectively. 49 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 7. INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED) The deferred income tax balance sheet accounts result from temporary differences between the amount of assets and liabilities recognized for financial reporting and tax purposes.

Of these, $230 million have no expiration, and the remaining $140 million will expire in future years through 2010. U.S. operating loss carryforwards at September 30, 2000 were approximately $692 million and will expire in future years through 2020. A valuation allowance has been provided for operating loss carryforwards that are not expected to be utilized. In the normal course, the Company and its subsidiaries' income tax returns are examined by various regulatory tax authorities. In connection with such examinations, substantial tax deficiencies have been proposed. However, the Company is contesting such proposed deficiencies, and ultimate resolution of such matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or liquidity. 8. KEY EMPLOYEE LOAN PROGRAM Loans are made to employees of the Company under the Former Tyco 1983 Key Employee Loan Program for the payment of taxes upon the vesting of shares granted under Former Tyco's Restricted Stock Ownership Plans. The loans are unsecured and bear interest, payable annually, at a rate which approximates the Company's incremental short-term borrowing rate. Loans are generally repayable in ten years, except that earlier payments are required under certain circumstances. During Fiscal 2000, the maximum amount outstanding under this program was $26.0 million. Loans receivable under this program were $11.4 million and $18.6 million at September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. 50 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 9. PREFERENCE SHARES The Company has authorized 125,000,000 preference shares of $1 each, none of which were issued or outstanding during fiscal 2000, 1999 or 1998. Rights as to dividends, return of capital, redemption, conversion, voting and otherwise may be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company on or before the time of issuance. In the event of the liquidation of the Company, the holders of any preference shares then outstanding would be entitled to payment to them of the amount for which the preference shares were subscribed and any unpaid dividends prior to any payment to the common shareholders. 10. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY During the last quarter of Fiscal 1999, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had declared a two-for-one stock split in the form of a 100% stock dividend on its common shares. The split was payable on October 21, 1999 to shareholders of record on October 1, 1999. In addition, during the last quarter of Fiscal 1997, the Board of Directors declared a two-for-one stock split effected in the form of a 100% stock dividend on the Company's common shares, which was distributed on October 22, 1997. Per share amounts and share data have been retroactively adjusted to reflect both stock splits. There was no change in the par value or the number of authorized shares as a result of these stock splits. During the third quarter of Fiscal 1999, in conjunction with the approval of the merger with AMP, shareholders approved an increase in the number of authorized common shares from 1,503,750,000 to 2,500,000,000. During the second quarter of Fiscal 1998, shareholders approved an increase in the number of authorized common shares from 750,000,000 to 1,503,750,000. In December 1997 the Company filed a shelf registration to enable it to offer from time to time unsecured debt securities or common shares, or any combination of the foregoing, at an aggregate initial offering price not to exceed $2.0 billion. In March 1998, the Company sold 50.6 million common shares at $25.38 per share. The net proceeds from the sale of approximately $1,245.0 million were used to repay indebtedness incurred for previous acquisitions. In August 2000, the Company filed an additional shelf registration to enable it to offer from time to time unsecured debt securities, preference shares, depositary shares or common shares, or any combination of the foregoing, at an aggregate initial offering price not to exceed $2.5 billion. Availability under this shelf registration statement incorporates any remaining availability under the shelf registration filed in December 1997. Information with respect to USSC and AMP common shares and options has been retroactively restated in connection with their mergers with Tyco to reflect their applicable merger per share exchange ratios of 0.7606 and 0.7507, respectively (1.5212 and 1.5014, respectively, after giving effect to the subsequent stock splits). The total compensation cost expensed for all stock-based compensation awards discussed below was $137.4 million, $96.9 million and $37.1 million for Fiscal 2000, Fiscal 1999 and Fiscal 1998, respectively. RESTRICTED STOCK--The Company maintains a restricted stock ownership plan, which provides for the award of an initial amount of common shares plus an amount equal to one-half of one percent of the total shares outstanding at the beginning of each fiscal year. At September 30, 2000, there were 31,397,856 shares authorized under the plan, of which 10,954,383 shares had been granted. Common shares are awarded subject to certain restrictions with vesting varying over periods of up to ten years. 51 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 10. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED) For grants which vest based on certain specified performance criteria, the fair market value of the shares at the date of vesting is expensed over the period of performance, once achievement of criteria is deemed probable. For grants that vest through passage of time, the fair market value of the shares at the time of the grant is amortized (net of tax benefit) to expense over the period of vesting. The unamortized portion of deferred compensation expense is recorded as a reduction of shareholders' equity. Recipients of all restricted shares have the right to vote such shares and receive dividends. Income tax benefits resulting from the vesting of restricted shares, including a deduction for the excess, if any, of the fair market value of restricted shares at the time of vesting over their fair market value at the time of the grants and from the payment of dividends on unvested shares, are credited to contributed surplus. EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN--Substantially all full-time employees of the Company's U.S. subsidiaries and employees of certain qualified non-U.S. subsidiaries are eligible to participate in an employee stock purchase plan. Eligible employees authorize payroll deductions to be made for the purchase of shares. The Company matches a portion of the employee contribution by contributing an additional 15% of the employee's payroll deduction. All shares purchased under the plan are purchased on the open market by a designated broker. SHARE OPTIONS--The Company has granted employee share options which were issued under five fixed share option plans which reserve common shares for issuance to the Company's directors, executives and managers. The majority of options have been granted under the Tyco International Ltd. Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan"). The Incentive Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, which consists exclusively of independent directors of the Company. Options are granted to purchase common shares at prices which are equal to or greater than the market price of the common shares on the date the option is granted. Conditions of vesting are determined at the time of grant. Options which have been granted under the Incentive Plan to date have generally vested and become exercisable over periods of up to five years from the date of grant and have a maximum term of ten years. The Company has reserved 140.0 million common shares for issuance under the Incentive Plan. Awards which the Company becomes obligated to make through the assumption of, or in substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by an acquired company are assumed and administered under the Incentive Plan but do not count against this limit. At September 30, 2000, there were approximately 37.0 million shares available for future grant under the Incentive Plan. During October 1998, a broad-based option plan for non-officer employees, the Tyco Long-Term Incentive Plan II ("LTIP II"), was approved by the Board of Directors. The Company has reserved 50.0 million common shares for issuance under the LTIP II. The terms and conditions of this plan are similar to the Incentive Plan. At September 30, 2000, there were approximately 17.2 million shares available for future grant under the LTIP II. In connection with the acquisitions of Raychem in Fiscal 1999 and CIPE S.A. and Holmes Protection in Fiscal 1998, options outstanding under the respective stock option plans of these companies were assumed under the Incentive Plan. In connection with the mergers occurring in Fiscal 1999 (See Note 2), all of the options outstanding under the USSC and AMP stock option plans were assumed under the Incentive Plan. These options are administered under the Incentive Plan but retain all of the rights, terms and conditions of the respective plans under which they were originally granted. 52 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 10. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED) As a result of the merger with USSC, approximately 14.2 million options which were not previously exercisable became immediately exercisable on October 1, 1998. Upon consummation of the merger with AMP on April 2, 1999, approximately 7.8 million options became immediately exercisable due to the change in ownership of AMP resulting from the merger. TyCom has two option plans and an employee stock purchase plan. The exercise price of options granted under the plans is equal to the fair market value at the date of grant of TyCom common shares. TyCom options outstanding and exercisable at September 30, 2000 were 21,607,050 and 26,250, respectively, at prices ranging from $32.00 to $44.62 per share. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION--SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS 123"), allows companies to measure compensation cost in connection with executive share option plans using a fair value based method or to continue to use an intrinsic value based method, which generally does not result in a compensation cost. The Company and TyCom have decided to continue to use the intrinsic value based method and do not recognize compensation expense for the issuance of options with an exercise price equal to or greater than the market price at the time of grant. Had the fair value based method been adopted by Tyco and TyCom, Tyco's pro forma net income and pro forma net income per common share for Fiscal 2000, Fiscal 1999 and Fiscal 1998 would have been as follows: 2000 1999 1998 -------- -------- -------- Net income--pro forma (in millions)...................... $4,136.7 $858.3 $1,063.3 Net income per common share--pro forma Basic.................................................. 2.45 0.52 0.67 Diluted................................................ 2.42 0.51 0.66 The estimated weighted-average fair value of Tyco and TyCom options granted during Fiscal 2000 was $16.26 and $17.47, respectively.

SFAS 123 does not apply to awards prior to 1995. Additional awards in future years are anticipated. TREASURY SHARES--In November 1999, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to reacquire up to 20 million of its common shares in the open market, which was completed during the quarter ended March 31, 2000. In January 2000, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to reacquire up to an additional $2.0 billion of its common shares in the open market, of which the Company has in excess of $0.9 billion remaining as of September 30, 2000. From time to time the Company, through its subsidiaries, also purchases shares in the open market to satisfy certain stock-based compensation arrangements. Treasury shares are recorded at cost in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. DIVIDENDS--Tyco has paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.0125 per common share since July 1997. USSC paid quarterly dividends of $0.04 per share in Fiscal 1998. AMP paid dividends of $0.27 per share in the first two quarters of Fiscal 1999, $0.26 per share in the first quarter of Fiscal 1998 and $0.27 per share in the last three quarters of Fiscal 1998. 11.

CHARGE FOR THE IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS The Company reviews the recoverability of the carrying value of long-lived assets, primarily property, plant and equipment and related goodwill and other intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. Impairment losses are recognized when expected future undiscounted cash flows are less than the assets' carrying value. When indicators of impairment are present, the carrying values of the assets are evaluated in relation to the operating performance and future undiscounted cash flows of the underlying business. The net book value of the underlying assets is adjusted to fair value if the sum of expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than book value. Fair values are based on quoted market prices and assumptions concerning the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and assumed discount rates, reflecting varying degrees of perceived risk. 2000 CHARGES The Healthcare and Specialty Products segment recorded a charge of $99.0 million primarily related to an impairment in goodwill and other intangible assets associated with the Company exiting the interventional cardiology business of USSC. 1999 CHARGES The Electronics segment recorded a charge of $431.5 million in Fiscal 1999, which includes $350.1 million related to the write-down of property, plant and equipment, primarily manufacturing and administrative facilities, associated with facility closures throughout AMP's worldwide operations in connection with its profit improvement plan and the combination of facilities as a result of its merger with the Company, approximately $143.6 million of which was taken as part of the AMP profit improvement plan prior to its acquisition by Tyco. It also includes an impairment in the value of goodwill and other intangibles of $81.4 million. The Company evaluated the profitability and 56 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD.

The remaining balance at September 30, 2000 of $24.8 million is included in other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company currently anticipates that the restructuring and other non-recurring activities to which all of these charges relate will be completed within Fiscal 2001. In Fiscal 1999, the Company recorded a credit of $31.9 million, including $27.2 million in the Fire and Security Services segment and $4.7 million in the Healthcare and Specialty Products segment referred to above, representing a revision of estimates related to Tyco's 1997 restructuring and other non-recurring accruals.

During the first quarter of Fiscal 1998, USSC recorded restructuring charges of $12.0 million related to employee severance costs, facility disposals and asset write-downs as part of USSC's cost cutting program. USSC substantially completed its 1998 restructuring activities during Fiscal 1999. 17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The Company occupies certain facilities under leases that expire at various dates through the year 2030. Rental expense under these leases and leases for equipment was $442.7 million, $381.0 million and $331.7 million for Fiscal 2000, Fiscal 1999 and Fiscal 1998, respectively. At September 30, 2000, the minimum lease payment obligations under noncancelable operating leases were as follows: $435.7 million in Fiscal 2001, $335.4 million in Fiscal 2002, $239.5 million in Fiscal 2003, $170.4 million in Fiscal 2004, $142.7 million in Fiscal 2005 and an aggregate of $431.4 million in Fiscal years 2006 through 2030. 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 or results of operations. The Company 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. Based upon the Company's experience with environmental remediation matters, the Company has concluded that there is at least a reasonable possibility that remedial costs will be incurred with respect to these sites in an aggregate amount in the range of $32.9 million to $95.2 million. At September 30, 2000, the Company concluded that the most probable amount that will be incurred within this range is $68.3 million. $35.4 million of such amount is included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $32.9 million is included in other long-term liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Based upon information available to the Company, at those sites where there has been an allocation of the liability for cleanup costs among a number of parties, including the Company, and such liability could be joint and several, management believes it is probable that other responsible parties will fully pay the cost allocated to them, except with respect to one site for which the Company has assumed that one of the identified responsible parties will be unable to pay the cost allocated to it and that such party's cost will be reapportioned among the remaining responsible parties. In view of the Company's financial position and reserves for 62 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 17. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED) environmental matters of $68.3 million, the Company has concluded that its payment of such estimated amounts will not have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity. The Company is a defendant in a number of other pending legal proceedings incidental to present and former operations, acquisitions and dispositions. The Company does not expect the outcome of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity. 18. RETIREMENT PLANS DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLANS--The Company has a number of noncontributory and contributory defined benefit retirement plans covering certain of its U.S. and non-U.S. employees, designed in accordance with conditions and practices in the countries concerned. Contributions are based on periodic actuarial valuations which use the projected unit credit method of calculation and are charged to the Consolidated Statements of Operations on a systematic basis over the expected average remaining service lives of current employees. The net pension expense is assessed in accordance with the advice of professionally qualified actuaries in the countries concerned or is based on subsequent formal reviews for the purpose. The Company's funding policy is to make annual contributions to the extent such contributions are tax deductible as actuarially determined. The benefits under the defined benefit plans are based on years of service and compensation. VOLUNTARY EARLY RETIREMENT PROGRAMS--In the fourth quarter of Fiscal 1998, AMP offered enhanced retirement benefits to targeted groups of employees. The cost of these benefits totaled $138.3 million and was recorded as part of AMP's fourth quarter restructuring charge. This amount has not been included in the determination of net periodic pension cost presented below.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 18. RETIREMENT PLANS (CONTINUED) The projected benefit obligation, accumulated benefit obligation, and fair value of plan assets for non-U.S. pension plans with accumulated benefit obligations in excess of plan assets were $543.8 million, $464.0 million and $256.1 million, respectively, as of September 30, 2000 and $563.5 million, $517.1 million and $314.6 million, respectively, as of September 30, 1999. The Company also participates in a number of multi-employer defined benefit plans on behalf of certain employees. Pension expense related to multi- employer plans was $8.2 million, $7.5 million and $1.7 million for Fiscal 2000, Fiscal 1999 and Fiscal 1998, respectively. DEFINED CONTRIBUTION RETIREMENT PLANS--The Company maintains several defined contribution retirement plans, which include 401(k) matching programs, as well as qualified and nonqualified profit sharing and share bonus retirement plans. Pension expense for the defined contribution plans is computed as a percentage of participants' compensation and was $132.7 million, $73.2 million and $57.1 million for Fiscal 2000, Fiscal 1999 and Fiscal 1998, respectively. The Company also maintains an unfunded Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP"). This plan is nonqualified and restores the employer match that certain employees lose due to IRS limits on eligible compensation under the defined contribution plans. Expense related to the SERP was $10.8 million, $6.9 million and $3.7 million in Fiscal 2000, Fiscal 1999 and Fiscal 1998, respectively. POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS--The Company generally does not provide postretirement benefits other than pensions for its employees. Certain of Former Tyco's acquired operations provide these benefits to employees who were eligible at the date of acquisition. In addition, ADT's electronic security services operation in the United States sponsors an unfunded defined benefit postretirement plan which covers both salaried and non-salaried employees and which provides medical and other benefits. This postretirement health care plan is contributory, with retiree contributions adjusted annually. The Company recorded a gain of $8.8 million related to the curtailment of this plan in Fiscal 1998 which was included in selling, general and administrative expenses. AMP provides postretirement health care coverage to qualifying U.S. retirees. As a result of the merger with Tyco, a $13.7 million adjustment was recorded to conform AMP's accounting method for postretirement benefits to Tyco's method, regarding the initial recognition of such benefits upon adoption of SFAS No. 106 "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions." In the second quarter of Fiscal 1999, AMP offered enhanced postretirement benefits to terminated employees totaling $16.0 million, which was recorded as part of AMP's second quarter restructuring charge.

("InnerDyne"), a manufacturer and distributor of patented radial dilating access devices used in minimally invasive medical surgical procedures. The purchase price is approximately $180 million payable in Tyco common shares. InnerDyne will be integrated within Tyco's Healthcare business. Tyco intends to account for the acquisition as a purchase. On October 6, 2000, the Company sold its ADT Automotive business to Manheim Auctions, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cox Enterprises, Inc., for approximately $1 billion in cash. The sale is expected to generate a one-time pre-tax gain to the Company in excess of $300 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2001. On October 17, 2000, the Company acquired Mallinckrodt Inc. ("Mallinckrodt"), a global healthcare company with products used primarily for respiratory care, diagnostic imaging and pain relief. The Company issued approximately 64.8 million common shares, valued at approximately $3.2 billion, and assumed approximately $1.0 billion in debt. Mallinckrodt is being integrated within the Company's Healthcare business. The Company is accounting for the acquisition as a purchase. On November 13, 2000, the Company agreed to acquire the Lucent Power Systems ("LPS") business unit of Lucent Technologies, Inc. for $2.5 billion in cash. LPS provides a full line of energy solutions and power products for telecommunications service providers and for the computer industry and will be integrated within the Electronics segment. LPS products include AC/DC and DC/DC switching power supplies, batteries, power supplies and back-up power systems. The acquisition is subject to customary regulatory approvals. On November 17, 2000, the Company completed a private placement offering of $4,657,500,000 principal at maturity of zero-coupon debt securities due 2020 for aggregate net proceeds of approximately $3,374,000,000. Each $1,000 principal amount at maturity security was issued at 74.165% of principal amount at maturity, acretes at a rate of 1.5% per annum and is convertible into 10.3014 Tyco common shares if certain conditions are met. The Company may be required to repurchase the securities at the accreted value at the option of the holders on November 17, 2001, 2003, 2005, 2007 or 2014. The proceeds of this offering will be used to finance the LPS acquisition and to repay commercial paper. On December 4, 2000, the Company agreed to acquire Simplex Time Recorder Co.

The acquisition is subject to customary regulatory approvals. 80 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Information for all periods presented below reflects the grouping of Tyco's businesses into five business segments consisting of Electronics, Telecommunications, Healthcare and Specialty Products, Fire and Security Services, and Flow Control Products and Services. In Fiscal 1999, we consummated two mergers that were accounted for under the pooling of interests method of accounting. The merger with United States Surgical Corporation closed on October 1, 1998, and the merger with AMP Incorporated closed on April 2, 1999. As required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"), we restated our financial statements as if USSC and AMP had always been a part of Tyco. We recorded as expenses during Fiscal 1999 costs directly associated with the USSC and AMP mergers and the costs of terminating employees and closing or consolidating facilities as a result of the mergers. We also expensed in Fiscal 1999 the costs of staff reductions and facility closings that AMP undertook as part of a plan to improve its profitability unrelated to our merger with AMP. In Fiscal 1998, we expensed charges for staff reductions and facility closings under the AMP profit improvement plan and charges that USSC incurred to exit certain of its businesses. These are discussed in more detail under "Liquidity and Capital Resources" below. OVERVIEW Sales increased 28.6% during Fiscal 2000 to $28,931.9 million from $22,496.5 million in Fiscal 1999. Sales in Fiscal 1999 increased 18.0% compared to Fiscal 1998. Income before extraordinary items was $4,520.1 million in Fiscal 2000, as compared to $1,067.7 million in Fiscal 1999 and $1,168.6 million in Fiscal 1998. Income before extraordinary items for Fiscal 2000 included an after-tax net credit of $793.7 million ($1,484.7 million pre-tax) consisting of restructuring, non-recurring and impairment charges of $327.3 million ($424.2 million pre-tax) primarily for non-recurring claims related to a merged company and the exiting of USSC's interventional cardiology business, offset by a credit of $113.6 million ($148.9 million pre-tax) representing a revision of estimates of merger, restructuring and other non-recurring accruals and a gain of $1,007.4 million ($1,760.0 million pre-tax) on the issuance of common shares in connection with TyCom's initial public offering. Income before extraordinary items for Fiscal 1999 included an after-tax net charge of $1,304.8 million ($1,542.7 million pre-tax) primarily related to the mergers with USSC and AMP and costs associated with AMP's profit improvement plan. Income before extraordinary items for Fiscal 1998 included an after-tax charge of $192.0 million ($256.9 million pre-tax) primarily related to AMP's profit improvement plan and costs incurred by USSC to exit certain businesses. 81 The following table details Tyco's sales and earnings in Fiscal 2000, Fiscal 1999 and Fiscal 1998: ($ in millions) FISCAL 2000 FISCAL 1999 FISCAL 1998 ----------- ----------- ----------- Net sales.................................. $28,931.9 $22,496.5 $19,061.7 ========= ========= ========= Operating income, before certain charges(i)............................... $ 6,094.1(ii) $ 3,949.6(ii) $ 2,336.8 Merger, restructuring and other non-recurring charges, net...............

(0.2) (45.7) (2.4) --------- --------- --------- Net income................................. $ 4,519.9 $ 1,022.0 $ 1,166.2 ========= ========= ========= ------------------------ (i) This amount is the sum of the operating income of Tyco's five business segments set forth in the segment discussion below, less certain corporate expenses, and is before merger, restructuring and other non-recurring charges, impairment of long-lived assets and amortization of goodwill. (ii) Net restructuring charges in the amount of $1.0 million and $106.4 million related to the write-down of inventory have been deducted as part of cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for Fiscal 2000 and 1999, respectively. However, they have not been deducted as part of cost of sales for the purpose of calculating operating income before certain charges in this table. These charges are instead included in merger, restructuring and other non-recurring charges. During Fiscal 2000 and 1999, we took merger, restructuring and other non-recurring charges and charges for the impairment of long-lived assets with respect to AMP and USSC. Under our restructuring and integration programs, we terminate employees and close facilities made redundant. The reduction in manpower and facilities comes from the manufacturing, distribution, sales and administrative functions. In addition, we discontinue or dispose of product lines which do not fit the long-term strategy of the respective businesses. We do not separately track the impact on financial results of the restructuring and integration programs. However, we estimate that our overall cost structure has been reduced by approximately $1,000.0 million on an annualized basis due to the impact associated with these charges. The significant decreases have been to selling, general and administrative expenses and to cost of sales. Operating income and margins for our five business segments, which are presented in accordance with GAAP in the following discussion, are supplemented by a discussion of operating income and margins stated before deductions for merger, restructuring and other non-recurring charges related to business combinations accounted for under the pooling of interests method of accounting and charges for impairment of long-lived assets. This supplemental discussion of operating results before certain charges should not be considered an alternative to operating or net income as an indicator of the 82 performance of our business, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, in each case determined in accordance with GAAP. Operating income improved in all segments in each of Fiscal 2000 and Fiscal 1999. The operating improvements are the result of both increased revenues in all segments and enhanced margins in all but one segment in Fiscal 2000. Increased revenues result from organic growth and from acquisitions that are accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. We enhance our margins through improved productivity and cost reductions in the ordinary course of business, unrelated to acquisition or divestiture activities. We regard charges that we incur to reduce costs in the ordinary course of business as recurring charges, which are reflected in cost of sales and in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. When we make an acquisition, the acquired company is immediately integrated with our existing operations. Consequently, we do not separately track the financial results of acquired companies. The year-to-year sales comparisons that are presented below include estimates of year-to-year sales growth that exclude the effects of acquisitions that are accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. These estimates assume that the acquisitions were made at the beginning of the relevant fiscal periods. SALES AND OPERATING INCOME ELECTRONICS Tyco's Electronics segment's products and services include: - designing, engineering and manufacturing of electronic connector systems, fiber optic components, wireless devices, heat shrink products, power components, wire and cable, relays, sensors, touch screens, identification and labeling products, switches and battery assemblies; and - designing and manufacturing of multi-layer printed circuit boards, backplane assemblies, electronic modules and similar components. The AMP merger occurred in April 1999, but as required under the pooling of interests method of accounting, AMP's results have been included for all periods presented. The following table sets forth sales and operating income (loss) and margins for the Electronics segment ($ in millions): FISCAL 2000 FISCAL 1999 FISCAL 1998 ----------- ----------- ----------- Sales................................................ $9,909.8 $6,087.4 $5,787.3 Operating income, before certain credits (charges)... $2,447.7 $ 848.9 $ 567.6 Operating margins, before certain credits (charges).......................................... 24.7% 13.9% 9.8% Operating income (loss), after certain credits (charges).......................................... $2,538.6 $ (225.9) $ 403.1 Operating margins, after certain credits (charges)... 25.6% (3.7)% 7.0% The 62.8% increase in sales in Fiscal 2000 over Fiscal 1999 in the Electronics segment resulted primarily from acquisitions and, to a lesser extent, increased organic growth. These acquisitions included: the acquisition in August 1999 of Raychem Corporation; the acquisition in November 1999 of Siemens Electromechanical Components GmbH & Co. KG; the acquisition in December 1999 of Praegitzer Industries, Inc.; the acquisition in March 2000 of Critchley Group PLC; and the acquisition in July 2000 of the Electronic OEM Business of Thomas & Betts. Excluding the impact of these acquisitions, sales increased an estimated 15.1%. The 5.2% increase in sales in Fiscal 1999 over Fiscal 1998 was predominantly due to the acquisition of Raychem in August 1999 and Sigma Circuits, Inc. in July 1998. Excluding the impact of these acquisitions, sales remained relatively stable. The substantial increase in operating income and margins, before certain credits (charges), in Fiscal 2000 compared with Fiscal 1999 was primarily due to the acquisitions of Raychem and Siemens 83 and improved margins at both AMP and Tyco Printed Circuit Group. The improved operating margins, before certain charges, in Fiscal 2000 compared with Fiscal 1999 resulted from increased volume, improved pricing and continuing cost reduction programs following the AMP merger. In addition to the items discussed above, the substantial increase in operating income and margins, after certain credits (charges), was due to a merger, restructuring and other non-recurring net credit of $90.9 million in Fiscal 2000 compared with a restructuring and other non-recurring charge of $1,074.8 million in Fiscal 1999. The 49.6% increase in operating income, before certain credits (charges), in Fiscal 1999 compared with Fiscal 1998 was due to improved margins at AMP, the acquisition of Raychem, and higher sales volume at the Tyco Printed Circuit Group. The improved operating margins, before certain credits (charges), in Fiscal 1999 compared with Fiscal 1998 were primarily due to the implementation of AMP's profit improvement plan, which was initiated in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 1998, cost reduction programs associated with the AMP merger, a pension curtailment/settlement gain and the acquisition of Raychem. These improvements were partially offset by $253.4 million of certain costs in Fiscal 1999 at AMP prior to the merger with Tyco, including costs to defend the AlliedSignal Inc. tender offer, the write-off of inventory and other balance sheet write-offs and adjustments. In addition, the decrease in operating income and margins, after certain credits (charges), was due to merger, restructuring and impairment charges of $1,074.8 million in Fiscal 1999 compared with net restructuring and impairment charges of $164.4 million in Fiscal 1998. TELECOMMUNICATIONS Tyco's 86% owned subsidiary, TyCom Ltd. ("TyCom"), is a leading independent provider of transoceanic fiber optic networks and services. TyCom's products and services include: - design, engineering, manufacture and installation of undersea cable communications systems; - service and maintenance of major undersea cable networks; and - design, manufacture and installation of a global undersea fiber optic network, known as the TyCom Global Network-TM- ("TGN"). TyCom plans to operate, maintain and sell bandwidth capacity on the TGN. The following table sets forth sales and operating income and margins for the Telecommunications segment ($ in millions): FISCAL 2000 FISCAL 1999 FISCAL 1998 ----------- ----------- ----------- Sales........................................... $2,539.7 $1,623.8 $1,280.0 Operating income, before certain charges........ $ 529.7 $ 325.1 $ 268.3 Operating margins, before certain charges....... 20.9% 20.0% 21.0% Operating income, after certain charges......... $ 516.6 $ 325.1 $ 268.3 Operating margins, after certain charges........ 20.3% 20.0% 21.0% The 56.4% increase in sales in Fiscal 2000 over Fiscal 1999 for the Telecommunications segment resulted primarily from increased demand for third-party sales of TyCom systems and, to a much lesser extent, the acquisition in May of 1999 of Telecomunicaciones Marinas, S.A. ("Temasa"). Excluding the effect of Temasa, the sales increase for the segment in Fiscal 2000 was an estimated 54.0%. 84 The 26.9% increase in sales in Fiscal 1999 over Fiscal 1998 for the Telecommunications segment was due primarily to higher industry demand driving backlog and project activity and to a lesser extent, the acquisition of Temasa in May 1999. Excluding the impact of Temasa, sales increased an estimated 25.5%. The substantial increase in operating income, before and after certain charges, in Fiscal 2000 compared with Fiscal 1999 was primarily due to higher sales volume, and to a lesser extent, the Temasa acquisition. The increase in operating income, after certain charges, was offset by a non-recurring charge of $13.1 million incurred in connection with the TyCom initial public offering. The 21.2% increase in operating income in Fiscal 1999 compared with Fiscal 1998 was due to higher project and service revenues and increased bandwidth capacity sales commissions, offset in part by one lower margin project. During construction of the transatlantic portion of the TGN, which began in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2000, revenues and operating income may decrease. During the same period, operating expenses are expected to increase due to building TyCom's infrastructure, including network operations, sales and marketing, research and development and administration. HEALTHCARE AND SPECIALTY PRODUCTS Tyco's Healthcare and Specialty Products segment's products and services include: - a wide variety of disposable medical products, including wound care products, syringes and needles, sutures and surgical staples, incontinence products, electrosurgical instruments and laparoscopic instruments; - flexible plastic packaging, plastic bags and sheeting, coated and laminated packaging materials, tapes and adhesives and plastic garment hangers; and - ADT Automotive's auto redistribution services (See Note 25). Tyco's merger with USSC, which is included in Tyco Healthcare, occurred in October 1998. As required under the pooling of interests method of accounting, USSC's results have been included for all periods presented. The following table sets forth sales and operating income and margins for the Healthcare and Specialty Products segment ($ in millions): FISCAL 2000 FISCAL 1999 FISCAL 1998 ----------- ----------- ----------- Sales.............................................. $6,467.9 $5,742.7 $4,672.4 Operating income, before certain credits (charges)........................................ $1,527.9 $1,386.0 $ 481.8 Operating margins, before certain credits (charges)........................................ 23.6% 24.1% 10.3% Operating income, after certain credits (charges)........................................ $1,439.8 $ 890.9 $ 389.3 Operating margins, after certain credits (charges)........................................ 22.3% 15.5% 8.3% The 12.6% increase in sales in Fiscal 2000 over Fiscal 1999 was primarily the result of increased sales at Tyco Plastics and Adhesives and Tyco Healthcare and, to a lesser extent, ADT Automotive. The increases for Tyco Healthcare were due to organic growth and, to a lesser extent, acquisitions. The acquisitions primarily responsible for the sales increase in Fiscal 2000 included: Graphic Controls Corporation and Sunbelt Plastics, both acquired in November 1998 and included in results for all of Fiscal 2000 but only part of Fiscal 1999; Batts, Inc., acquired in April 1999; General Surgical Innovations, Inc., acquired in November 1999; Radionics, acquired in January 2000; and Fiber-Lam, acquired in March 2000. Excluding the impact of these acquistions, sales for the segment increased an estimated 8.2% in Fiscal 2000 over Fiscal 1999. The 22.9% increase in sales in Fiscal 1999 over Fiscal 1998 was primarily the result of increased sales at Tyco Healthcare and, to a lesser extent, Tyco Plastics and Adhesives and ADT Automotive. For Fiscal 1999, the acquisitions primarily responsible for the sales increase included Valleylab, Sherwood- 85 Davis & Geck, Confab and Graphic Controls Corporation. Excluding the impact of these acquisitions, the sales increase for Fiscal 1999 over Fiscal 1998 was 5.1%. The 10.2% increase in operating income, before certain credits (charges), in Fiscal 2000 over Fiscal 1999 was due to increased sales volume at Tyco Healthcare, Tyco Plastics and Adhesives and, to a lesser extent, ADT Automotive, slightly offset by a lower operating margin percentage at Tyco Healthcare principally due to higher raw materials costs. In addition to the items discussed above, the substantial increase in operating income and margins, after certain credits (charges), was due to net merger, restructuring and other non-recurring and impairment charges of $88.1 million in Fiscal 2000 compared with net merger, restructuring and other non-recurring charges of $495.1 million in Fiscal 1999. The substantial increase in operating income and operating margins, before certain credits (charges), in Fiscal 1999 over Fiscal 1998 was due to improved margins and increased sales volume at Tyco Healthcare, whose margins were depressed in Fiscal 1998. The increase in Fiscal 1999 also reflected higher sales volume and better margins at Tyco Plastics and Adhesives and ADT Automotive. The Fiscal 1998 margins at Tyco Healthcare were brought down by fourth quarter results at USSC, which lowered sales of higher margin products to reduce excess inventory levels at distributors, and recorded increased costs, principally a $105.8 million accrual for special hospital education programs. Excluding these effects, management estimates that the increase in operating income in Fiscal 1999 over Fiscal 1998 would have been 48.6% and the operating margin for the segment in Fiscal 1998 would have been 19.6%. The increase in margins for Fiscal 1999 above the 19.6% level was primarily attributable to the effects of the cost reduction programs associated with the USSC merger, including the termination of 1,282 employees and the consolidation or closure of 20 facilities. The effect of exiting businesses of Tyco Healthcare did not significantly impact operating margins or income. In addition to the items discussed above, the increase in operating income and margins was offset by net merger, restructuring and impairment charges of $495.1 million in Fiscal 1999 compared with restructuring and other non-recurring charges of $92.5 million in Fiscal 1998. On October 6, 2000, we sold our ADT Automotive business, which performed auto redistribution services. FIRE AND SECURITY SERVICES Tyco's Fire and Security Services segment's products and services include: - designing, installing and servicing of a broad line of fire detection, prevention and suppression systems; - providing electronic security installation and monitoring services; and - manufacturing and servicing of fire extinguishers and related products. The following table sets forth sales and operating income and margins for the Fire and Security Services segment ($ in millions): FISCAL 2000 FISCAL 1999 FISCAL 1998 ----------- ----------- ----------- Sales.............................................. $6,076.6 $5,534.0 $4,393.5 Operating income, before certain credits........... $1,029.3 $ 907.0 $ 630.6 Operating margins, before certain credits.......... 16.9% 16.4% 14.4% Operating income, after certain credits............ $1,040.5 $ 934.2 $ 630.6 Operating margins, after certain credits........... 17.1% 16.9% 14.4% The 9.8% increase in sales in Fiscal 2000 over Fiscal 1999 resulted primarily from increased sales in the worldwide electronic security services business and higher sales volume in fire protection operations in North America, Asia and Australia. The increases were due primarily to a higher volume 86 of recurring service revenues and, to a lesser extent, the effects of acquisitions in the security services business. These acquisitions included: Entergy Security Corporation ("Entergy"), acquired in January 1999, and Alarmguard Holdings ("Alarmguard"), acquired in February 1999, both of which were included in results for all of Fiscal 2000 but only part of Fiscal 1999. Excluding the impact of these acquisitions, the sales increase for the segment in Fiscal 2000 was an estimated 8.9%. The 26.0% sales increase in Fiscal 1999 over Fiscal 1998 reflected increased sales worldwide in both our electronic security services and our fire protection businesses. The increases were due both to a higher volume of recurring service revenues and the effects of Fiscal 1999 acquisitions in the security services business. These acquisitions included CIPE S.A., Wells Fargo Alarm, Entergy and Alarmguard. Excluding the effects of these acquisitions, the increase in sales for the segment in Fiscal 1999 was an estimated 15.4%. The 13.5% increase in operating income, before certain credits, in Fiscal 2000 over Fiscal 1999 reflects increased service volume in security operations in the United States and fire protection businesses in North America and Asia. The increase in operating margins, before certain credits, was due to increased sales volume in both security services and fire protection offset slightly, in the case of security services, by the costs of the reorganization of the security services' dealer program and internal sales force during the first two quarters of Fiscal 2000. The 43.8% increase in operating income, before certain credits, in Fiscal 1999 over Fiscal 1998 reflects the worldwide increase in service volume, both in security services and fire protection, including the higher margins associated with recurring monitoring revenue. The increase in operating margins, before certain credits, in Fiscal 1999 was principally due to increased volume of higher margin service and inspection work in the North American fire protection operations; increased volume due to economic improvements in the Asia-Pacific region; higher incremental margins in the European security operations from additions to the customer base; and cost reductions related to acquisitions. In addition to the items discussed above, operating income and margins, after certain credits reflect a restructuring and other non-recurring credit of $11.2 million in Fiscal 2000 and $27.2 million in Fiscal 1999. FLOW CONTROL PRODUCTS AND SERVICES Tyco's Flow Control Products and Services segment's products and services include: - a full line of valves and related products for industrial and process control including butterfly, gate, globe, check, ball, plug, safety relief, knife-gate, instrumentation, sampling, and other valves as well as actuators, positioners, couplings and related products, which are used to transport, control and sample liquids, gases, powders and other substances; - pipe and tubular products, made primarily from steel, ductile iron and plastic, utilized in the mechanical tubing, construction, automotive, water distribution, fencing products and other markets; - electrical raceway products, including steel conduit, pre-wired armored cable, flexible conduit, steel support systems and fasteners, cable tray and cable ladder; - a broad range of consulting, engineering, construction management and operating services for the water, wastewater, environmental, transportation and infrastructure markets; and - fire sprinkler devices, specialty valves, steel pipe, plastic pipe and fittings and pipe couplings used in commercial, residential and industrial fire protection systems. 87 The following table sets forth sales and operating income and margins for the Flow Control Products and Services segment ($ in millions): FISCAL 2000 FISCAL 1999 FISCAL 1998 ----------- ----------- ----------- Sales.............................................. $3,937.9 $3,508.6 $2,928.5 Operating income................................... $ 746.9 $ 605.5 $ 456.9 Operating margins.................................. 19.0% 17.3% 15.6% The 12.2% sales increase in Fiscal 2000 over Fiscal 1999 was primarily due to increased volume at Allied Tube and Conduit, increased demand for valve products in the Asia-Pacific region and Europe, increased sales at Earth Tech and, to a lesser extent, the impact of acquisitions. These acquisitions included: Glynwed International, plc ("Glynwed"), acquired in March 1999; Central Sprinkler Corporation, acquired in August 1999; AFC Cable Systems, Inc., acquired in November 1999; and Flow Control Technologies, acquired in February 2000. In August 1999, we sold certain businesses within this segment, including The Mueller Company ("Mueller") and portions of Grinnell Supply Sales and Manufacturing ("Grinnell"). Excluding the impacts of these acquisitions and divestitures, sales increased an estimated 11.9%. The 19.8% sales increase in Fiscal 1999 over Fiscal 1998 reflects increased demand for valve products in Europe, increased sales at Earth Tech and the impact of acquisitions. These acquisitions included Crosby Valve, Rust Environmental and Infrastructure, Inc. and Glynwed. Excluding the effect of these acquisitions and the divestitures of Mueller and Grinnell, the sales increase for the segment in Fiscal 1999 was an estimated 11.3%. The 23.4% increase in operating income in Fiscal 2000 over Fiscal 1999 was primarily due to increased volume at Allied Tube & Conduit and increased volume and improved margins in the North American and European valve operations and at Earth Tech. Also, royalty and licensing fee income from certain intellectual property associated with the divested businesses offset a portion of the operating income lost from the divestitures. Increased operating margins in Fiscal 2000 resulted primarily from royalty and licensing fee income and margin improvement in the North American and European valve operations and at Earth Tech. The 32.5% increase in operating income in Fiscal 1999 over Fiscal 1998 was primarily due to increased sales in the European flow control operations and North American valve products and at Earth Tech. The increase in operating margins was principally due to cost containment programs that improved margins in our North American pipe products business and the worldwide valve operations. The gain on the sale of Mueller and portions of Grinnell in this segment did not significantly impact operating profits and margins in Fiscal 1999. FOREIGN CURRENCY The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates during Fiscal 2000, Fiscal 1999 and Fiscal 1998 was not material to our sales and operating income. CORPORATE EXPENSES Corporate expenses, excluding non-recurring charges of $275.0 million as a reserve for certain claims relating to a merged company in the Healthcare business and other non-recurring charges of $1.2 million, were $187.4 million in Fiscal 2000 compared to $122.9 million in Fiscal 1999 and $68.3 million in Fiscal 1998. These increases were due principally to higher compensation expense under our equity-based incentive compensation plans and an increase in corporate staffing and related costs to support and monitor our expanding businesses and operations. 88 AMORTIZATION OF GOODWILL Amortization of goodwill, a non-cash charge, increased $128.3 million to $344.4 million in Fiscal 2000 compared with Fiscal 1999. Fiscal 1999 amortization of goodwill increased to $216.1 million from $131.8 million in Fiscal 1998. The increase in amortization of goodwill is due to the $5,162.0 million in consideration paid for acquisitions and acquisition related costs in Fiscal 2000, which resulted in goodwill and other intangibles of $5,206.8 million, and the $6,923.3 million in consideration paid for acquisitions and acquisition related costs in Fiscal 1999, which resulted in goodwill and other intangibles of $5,807.9 million. INTEREST EXPENSE, NET Interest expense, net, increased $284.0 million to $769.6 million in Fiscal 2000, as compared to Fiscal 1999, and increased $240.3 million to $485.6 million in Fiscal 1999, as compared to Fiscal 1998. These increases were primarily due to higher average debt balances, resulting from borrowings to finance acquisitions and our stock repurchase program and, to a lesser extent, higher average interest rates in Fiscal 2000. The increase in borrowings was mitigated in part by the use of free cash flow to pay for certain acquisitions. The weighted-average rate of interest on all long-term debt during Fiscal 2000, Fiscal 1999 and Fiscal 1998 was 6.5%, 6.2% and 6.4%, respectively. EXTRAORDINARY ITEMS Extraordinary items in Fiscal 2000, Fiscal 1999 and Fiscal 1998 included after-tax losses amounting to $0.2 million, $45.7 million and $2.4 million, respectively, relating primarily to our tender offers for debt and the write-off of net unamortized deferred financing costs related to the LYONs. Further details are provided in Notes 4 and 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. INCOME TAX EXPENSE The effective income tax rate, excluding the impact of merger, restructuring and other non-recurring credits (charges), charges for the impairment of long-lived assets and gain on the sale of TyCom shares, was 24.8% during Fiscal 2000 as compared to 27.0% in Fiscal 1999 and 30.6% in Fiscal 1998. The decreases in the effective income tax rates were primarily due to higher earnings in tax jurisdictions with lower income tax rates. We believe that we will generate sufficient future income to realize the tax benefits related to our deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance has been maintained due to continued uncertainties of realization of certain tax benefits, primarily tax loss carryforwards (See Note 7). 89 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The following table shows the sources of our cash flow from operating activities and the use of a portion of that cash in our operations in Fiscal 2000 and Fiscal 1999. We refer to the net amount of cash generated from operating activities less capital expenditures and dividends as "free cash flow." FISCAL 2000 FISCAL 1999 ----------- ----------- ($ IN MILLIONS) Operating income, before certain charges (1).............. $ 6,094.1 $ 3,949.6 Depreciation and amortization (2)......................... 1,300.0 1,095.1 Net increase in deferred income taxes..................... 507.8 351.6 Less: Net increase in working capital (3)....................... (64.9) (122.6) Interest expense, net..................................... (769.6) (485.6) Income tax expense........................................ (1,926.0) (637.5) Restructuring expenditures (4)............................ (155.2) (633.6) Other, net................................................ 288.8 32.8 --------- --------- Cash flow from operating activities....................... 5,275.0 3,549.8 Less: Capital expenditures...................................... (1,814.9) (1,632.5) Dividends paid............................................ (86.2) (187.9) --------- --------- Free cash flow............................................ $ 3,373.9 $ 1,729.4 ========= ========= ------------------------ (1) This amount is the sum of the operating income of the five business segments as set forth above, less certain corporate expenses, and is before merger, restructuring and other non-recurring credits and charges, charges for the impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill amortization. (2) This amount is the sum of depreciation of tangible property ($1,095.0 million and $979.6 million in Fiscal 2000 and Fiscal 1999, respectively) and amortization of intangible property other than goodwill ($205.0 million and $115.5 million in Fiscal 2000 and Fiscal 1999, respectively). (3) This amount is net of $100.0 million and $50.0 million received on the sale of accounts receivable in Fiscal 2000 and Fiscal 1999, respectively. (4) This amount is the sum of all cash paid out for (a) merger, restructuring and other non-recurring charges in connection with business combinations accounted for on a pooling of interests basis and (b) other restructuring and non-recurring charges taken by the pooled companies prior to their combination with Tyco. In addition, in Fiscal 2000 and Fiscal 1999 we paid out $544.2 million and $354.4 million, respectively, in cash that was charged against reserves established in connection with acquisitions accounted for under the purchase accounting method. This amount is included in "Acquisition of businesses, net of cash acquired" in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Business combinations are accounted for either on a pooling of interests basis or under the purchase accounting method. In Fiscal 1999, the Company made two business combinations, USSC and AMP, that were required to be accounted for on a pooling of interests basis. Under pooling of interests accounting, the merged companies are treated as if they had always been part of Tyco, and their financial statements are included in our Consolidated Financial Statements for all periods presented. At the time of each pooling of interests transaction, Tyco establishes a reserve for transaction costs and the costs that we expect to incur in integrating the merged company within the relevant Tyco business segment. By integrating merged companies with our existing businesses, we expect to realize operating synergies and long-term cost savings. Integration costs, which relate primarily to termination of employees and the closure of facilities made redundant, are detailed in Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Reserves for merger, restructuring and other non-recurring items are taken as a charge against current earnings at the time the reserves are established. Amounts expended for merger, restructuring and other non-recurring costs are charged against the reserves as they are paid out. If the amount of the reserves proves to be greater than the costs actually incurred, any excess is credited against merger, restructuring and other non-recurring charges in the Consolidated Statement of Operations in the period in which that determination is made. 90 In Fiscal 2000, we established merger, restructuring and other non-recurring reserves of $325.2 million, of which $7.3 million is included in cost of sales, primarily related to a reserve for certain claims relating to a merged company in the Healthcare business, the restructuring activities in AMP's Brazilian operations and wireless communications business, a non-recurring charge incurred in connection with the TyCom IPO, charges associated with USSC's suture business and the exiting of USSC's interventional cardiology business. At the beginning of the fiscal year, there existed merger, restructuring and other non-recurring reserves of $399.3 million related to pooling of interests transactions consummated in prior years and other restructuring charges taken by the merged companies prior to their combination with Tyco. During Fiscal 2000, we paid out $155.2 million in cash and incurred $54.5 million in non-cash charges that were charged against these reserves. Also in Fiscal 2000, we determined that $148.9 million of merger, restructuring and other non-recurring reserves established in prior years were not needed. These amounts were taken as merger, restructuring and other non-recurring credits during Fiscal 2000 and offset against the reserves. At September 30, 2000, there remained $365.9 million of merger, restructuring and other non-recurring reserves on our Consolidated Balance Sheet, of which $334.8 million is included in current liabilities and $31.1 million is included in long-term liabilities. All business combinations completed in Fiscal 2000 were required to be accounted for under the purchase accounting method. At the time each purchase acquisition is made, we establish a reserve for transaction costs and the costs of integrating the purchased company within the relevant Tyco business segment. The amounts of such reserves established in Fiscal 2000 are detailed in Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. These amounts are not charged against current earnings but are treated as additional purchase price consideration and have the effect of increasing the amount of goodwill recorded in connection with the respective acquisition. We view these costs as the equivalent of additional purchase price consideration when we consider making an acquisition. If the amount of the reserves proves to be in excess of costs actually incurred, any excess is used to reduce the goodwill account that was established at the time the acquisition was made. In Fiscal 2000, we made acquisitions that were accounted for under the purchase accounting method at an aggregate cost of $5,162.0 million. Of this amount, $4,246.5 million was paid in cash (net of cash acquired), $671.4 million was paid in the form of Tyco common shares, and we assumed $244.1 million in debt. In connection with these acquisitions, we established purchase accounting reserves of $426.2 million for transaction and integration costs. At the beginning of Fiscal 2000, purchase accounting reserves were $570.3 million as a result of purchase accounting transactions made in prior years. During Fiscal 2000, we paid out $544.2 million in cash and incurred $52.1 million in non-cash charges against the reserves established during and prior to Fiscal 2000. Also in Fiscal 2000, we determined that $117.8 million of purchase accounting reserves related to acquisitions made prior to Fiscal 2000 were not needed and reversed that amount against goodwill. At September 30, 2000, there remained $372.6 million in purchase accounting reserves on our Consolidated Balance Sheet, of which $349.2 million is included in current liabilities and $23.4 million is included in long-term liabilities. 91 The following details the Fiscal 2000 capital expenditures and depreciation by segment: CAPITAL EXPENDITURES DEPRECIATION ($ IN MILLIONS) ------------ ------------ Electronics.......................................... $ 293.8 $ 444.9 Telecommunications................................... 316.0(1) 57.4 Healthcare and Specialty Products.................... 251.1 192.8 Fire and Security Services........................... 764.3 309.4 Flow Control Products and Services................... 142.1 82.9 Corporate............................................ 47.6 7.6 -------- -------- Total............................................ $1,814.9 $1,095.0 ======== ======== ------------------------ (1) Includes $111.1 million in spending for construction of the TyCom Global Network. We continue to fund capital expenditures to improve the cost structure of our businesses, to invest in new processes and technology, and to maintain high quality production standards. The level of capital expenditures for the Fire and Security Services segment significantly exceeded, and is expected to continue to significantly exceed, depreciation due to the large volume growth of new residential subscriber systems capitalized. The level of capital expenditures in the Telecommunications segment is expected to significantly increase due to construction of the TyCom Global Network. The level of capital expenditures in the other segments is expected to increase moderately in Fiscal 2001. The source of funds for capital expenditures is expected to be cash from operating activities. The provision for income taxes in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for Fiscal 2000 was $1,926.0 million, but the amount of income taxes paid (net of refunds) during the year was $454.7 million. The difference is due primarily to the timing of tax payments related to the gain on issuance of shares by TyCom. The current income tax liability at September 30, 2000 was $1,650.3 million, as compared to $798.0 million at September 30, 1999. After adjustment for deferred income taxes of acquired companies and other items, the net increase in deferred income taxes was $507.8 million. The increase in deferred income taxes is attributable primarily to current utilization of deductions on restructuring, other non-recurring charges and purchase accounting spending, other timing differences between book and tax recognition of income and expense, utilization of net operating loss and credit carryforwards, and the tax benefits of stock option exercises. The net change in working capital, net of the effects of acquisitions and divestitures, was an increase of $91.7 million. The components of this change are set forth in detail in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The increase in working capital accounts is attributable to the higher level of business activity in Fiscal 2000 as reflected in the increased sales over the prior year. We focus on maximizing the cash flow from our operating businesses and attempt to keep the working capital employed in the businesses to the minimum level required for efficient operations. In addition, we used $1,885.1 million to purchase our own common shares. In November 1999, we announced the authorization by our Board of Directors to reacquire up to 20 million Tyco common shares in the open market, which was completed during the quarter ended March 31, 2000. In January 2000, the Board of Directors authorized the expenditure of up to an additional $2,000.0 million to reacquire our shares, of which we have spent nearly $1,100.0 million through September 30, 2000. In addition, we repurchase our own shares from time to time in the open market to satisfy certain stock-based compensation arrangements, such as the exercise of stock options. We received proceeds of $2,130.7 million from the issuance of common shares by a subsidiary in the TyCom IPO and $355.3 million from the exercise of common share options. 92 The source of the cash used for acquisitions was primarily an increase in total debt and cash flows from operations. Goodwill and other intangible assets were $16,332.6 million at September 30, 2000, compared to $12,158.9 million at September 30, 1999. At September 30, 2000, our total debt was $10,999.0 million, as compared to $10,122.2 million at September 30, 1999. This increase resulted principally from borrowings under our commercial paper program and net proceeds of approximately $565.9 million from the issuance of Euro denominated private placement notes in April 2000. For a full discussion of debt activity, see Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Shareholders' equity was $17,033.2 million, or $10.11 per share, at September 30, 2000, compared to $12,369.3 million, or $7.32 per share, at September 30, 1999. The increase in shareholders' equity was due primarily to net income of $4,519.9 million, an unrealized gain on available for sale securities of $1,075.7 million and the issuance of a total of approximately 15.6 million common shares valued at approximately $671.4 million for the acquisitions of GSI and AFC Cable in November 1999. Total debt as a percent of total capitalization (total debt and shareholders' equity) was 39% at September 30, 2000 and 45% at September 30, 1999. Net debt (total debt less cash and cash equivalents) as a percent of total capitalization was 35% at September 30, 2000 and 37% at September 30, 1999. On October 4, 2000, we entered into an agreement to acquire InnerDyne, Inc. ("InnerDyne"), a manufacturer and distributor of patented radial dilating access devices used in minimally invasive medical surgical procedures. The purchase price is approximately $180 million payable in Tyco common shares. InnerDyne will be integrated within Tyco's Healthcare business. We intend to account for the acquisition as a purchase. On October 6, 2000, we sold our ADT Automotive business to Manheim Auctions, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cox Enterprises, Inc., for approximately $1 billion in cash. The sale is expected to generate a one-time pre-tax gain to Tyco in excess of $300 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2001. On October 17, 2000, we acquired Mallinckrodt Inc. ("Mallinckrodt"), a global healthcare company with products used primarily for respiratory care, diagnostic imaging and pain relief. We issued approximately 64.8 million common shares, valued at approximately $3.2 billion, and assumed approximately $1.0 billion in debt. Mallinckrodt is being integrated within Tyco's Healthcare business. We are accounting for the acquisition as a purchase. On November 13, 2000, we agreed to acquire the Lucent Power Systems ("LPS") business unit of Lucent Technologies, Inc. for $2.5 billion in cash. LPS provides a full line of energy solutions and power products for telecommunications service providers and for the computer industry and will be integrated within the Electronics segment. LPS products include AC/DC and DC/DC switching power supplies, batteries, power supplies and back-up power systems. The acquisition is subject to customary regulatory approvals. On November 17, 2000, we completed a private placement offering of $4,657,500,000 principal at maturity of zero-coupon debt securities due 2020 for aggregate net proceeds of approximately $3,374,000,000. Each $1,000 principal amount at maturity security was issued at 74.165% of principal amount at maturity, accretes at a rate of 1.5% per annum and is convertible into 10.3014 Tyco common shares if certain conditions are met. We may be required to repurchase the securities at the accreted value at the option of the holders on November 17, 2001, 2003, 2005, 2007 or 2014. The proceeds of this offering will be used to finance the LPS acquisition and to repay commercial paper. On December 4, 2000, we agreed to acquire Simplex Time Recorder Co. ("Simplex") for approximately $1.15 billion in cash. Simplex manufactures fire and security products and communications systems including control panels, detection devices and system software. Simplex also installs, monitors and services fire alarms, security systems and access control systems and will be integrated within the Fire and Security Services segment. The acquisition is subject to customary regulatory approvals. 93 We believe that our cash flow from operations, together with our existing credit facilities and other credit arrangements, is adequate to fund our operations. BACKLOG At September 30, 2000, we had a backlog of unfilled orders of approximately $8,214.8 million, compared to a backlog of approximately $7,581.1 million as of September 30, 1999. We expect that approximately 86% of our backlog at September 30, 2000 will be filled during the year ending September 30, 2001. Backlog by industry segment is as follows ($ in millions): SEPTEMBER 30, ------------------- 2000 1999 -------- -------- Telecommunications....................................... $2,941.7 $3,535.4 Electronics.............................................. 2,335.7 1,439.1 Flow Control Products and Services....................... 1,711.4 1,516.5 Fire and Security Services............................... 1,134.9 986.6 Healthcare and Specialty Products........................ 91.1 103.5 -------- -------- $8,214.8 $7,581.1 ======== ======== The decrease in backlog within the Telecommunications segment is due to TyCom devoting a substantial portion of its resources to designing and manufacturing the TGN and therefore taking on less work as a supplier of undersea fiber optic cable systems for others. Within the Electronics segment, backlog increased principally due to an increase in demand for the products manufactured by AMP and Raychem, and to a lesser extent, the effect of acquisitions. Within the Flow Control Products and Services segment, backlog increased principally due to increased backlog at Earth Tech, related to new contract bookings and water and waste water facility contracts, and an increase in demand for its valves and control products. Within the Fire and Security Services segment, backlog increased principally due to long-term service contracts in the Australian fire protection business and, to a lesser extent, the effect of acquisitions. Backlog in the Healthcare and Specialty Products segment is not indicative of the level of sales activity. Backlog in this segment generally represents unfilled orders which are shipped shortly after purchase orders are received. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK We are subject to market risk associated with changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and certain commodity prices. In order to manage the volatility relating to our more significant market risks, we enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts, cross-currency swaps, foreign currency options, commodity swaps and interest rate swaps. The Company does not anticipate any material changes in our primary market risk exposures in Fiscal 2001. We utilize risk management procedures and controls in executing derivative financial instrument transactions. We do not execute transactions or hold derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Derivative financial instruments related to interest rate sensitivity of debt obligations, intercompany cross-border transactions and anticipated non-functional currency cash flows, as well as commodity price exposures, are used with the goal of mitigating a significant portion of these exposures when it is cost effective to do so. Counter-parties to derivative financial instruments are limited to financial institutions with at least an AA long-term credit rating. 94 INTEREST RATE SENSITIVITY The table below provides information about our financial instruments that are sensitive to changes in interest rates, including long-term investments, debt obligations, interest rate swaps and currency swaps. For long-term investments, the table presents cash flows of principal payments (in millions) related to a subordinated, non-collateralized zero coupon loan note, based on the amortized cost of the investment as of September 30, 2000, and the associated fair value interest rate discount. For debt obligations, the table presents cash flows of principal repayment (in millions) and weighted-average interest rates. For interest rate swaps and cross-currency swaps, the table presents notional amounts (in millions) and weighted-average interest rates. Notional amounts are used to calculate the contractual payments to be exchanged under the contract. The amounts included in the table below are in U.S. dollars ($ in millions).

Our business has not been adversely affected due to the failure of key third parties to successfully complete the Year 2000 conversion. Although there can be no assurance that all of our material third-party relationships had successful conversion programs we do not expect that any such failure would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity. The costs of our Year 2000 program to date have not been material, and we know of no further required modifications to its information technology or embedded technology systems that would have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity. ACCOUNTING AND TECHNICAL PRONOUNCEMENTS In June 1998 and June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" and SFAS No. 138, "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities." These statements establish accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. SFAS Nos. 133 and 138 also require that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. SFAS Nos. 133 and 138 are effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. We do not expect that the adoption of these new standards will have a material impact on our earnings or financial position. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" ("SAB 101"), which clarifies certain existing accounting principles for the timing of revenue recognition and its classification in the financial statements. In June 2000, the SEC delayed the required implementation date of SAB 101. As a result, SAB 101 will not be effective for Tyco until the quarter ended September 30, 2001. In October 2000, the SEC issued further guidance on the interpretations included in SAB 101. We are currently analyzing the impact of this Staff Accounting Bulletin. 97 In September 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 140 ("SFAS 140"), "Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities--a replacement of FASB Statement No. 125." SFAS 140 revises the standards for accounting for securitizations and other transfers of financial assets and collateral and requires certain disclosures, but it carries over most of SFAS 125's provisions without reconsideration. This Statement is effective for transfers and servicing of financial assets and extinguishments of liabilities occurring after March 31, 2001. This Statement is effective for recognition and reclassification of collateral and for disclosures relating to securitization transactions and collateral for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2000. We are currently analyzing this new standard. FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION Certain statements in this report are "forward looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All forward looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. In particular, any statement contained herein, in press releases, written statements or other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or in Tyco's communications and discussions with investors and analysts in the normal course of business through meetings, phone calls and conference calls, regarding the consummation and benefits of future acquisitions, as well as expectations with respect to future sales, earnings, cash flows, operating efficiencies, product expansion, backlog, financings and share repurchases, are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of Tyco, which may cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from anticipated results, performances or achievements. Factors that might affect such forward looking statements include, among other things, overall economic and business conditions; the demand for Tyco's goods and services; competitive factors in the industries in which Tyco competes; changes in government regulation; changes in tax requirements (including tax rate changes, new tax laws and revised tax law interpretations); results of litigation; interest rate fluctuations and other capital market conditions, including foreign currency rate fluctuations; economic and political conditions in international markets, including governmental changes and restrictions on the ability to transfer capital across borders; the timing of construction and the successful operation of the TyCom Global Network; the ability to achieve anticipated synergies and other cost savings in connection with acquisitions; and the timing, impact and other uncertainties of future acquisitions. 98 TYCO INTERNATIONAL LTD.

To the extent permitted by applicable Law, in the event consents to the assignment thereof cannot be obtained, such Nonassignable Assets shall be held, as and from the Closing Date, by Seller or its Affiliates in trust for Buyer and the covenants and obligations thereunder shall be performed by Buyer in Seller's or one of its -17- LUCENT TECHNOLOGIES PROPRIETARY USE PURSUANT TO COMPANY INSTRUCTIONS Affiliate's name and all benefits and obligations existing thereunder shall be for Buyer's account.

Buyer and Seller agree to each pay one-half (1/2) of any applicable real estate transfer taxes that arise as a result of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding any such assignment or execution of a Collateral Agreement by a Buyer Designee, Buyer shall remain liable for, and any such assignment or execution shall not relieve Buyer of, its obligations hereunder or thereunder. Any reference to Buyer in this Agreement shall to the extent applicable also be deemed a reference to the applicable Buyer Designee, except where in context of this Agreement such use would not be appropriate. 3.

(b) Seller and Buyer recognize their mutual obligations pursuant to Section 1060 of the Code to timely file IRS Form 8594 (the "ASSET ACQUISITION STATEMENT") with each of their respective federal income tax returns. Accordingly, within thirty (30) days after the parties finalize the Purchase Price Adjustment pursuant to Section 2.3, Seller and Buyer agree to attempt in good faith to (i) enter into a Purchase Price allocation agreement providing for the allocation of the Purchase Price among the Purchased Assets consistent with the provisions of Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder, and (ii) cooperate in the preparation of the Asset Acquisition Statement for timely filing in each of their respective federal income tax returns.

Seller shall cooperate in facilitating the performance of Buyer's obligation to make such offers. Business Employees who accept Buyer's offer of employment, as of the effective date of their employment with Buyer, shall be referred to as "TRANSFERRED EMPLOYEES". (b) As of the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide Transferred Employees, until at least December 31, 2001, a total compensation package of salary and benefits that, in the aggregate, are substantially similar to that offered by Seller or its applicable Subsidiary immediately prior to the Closing Date. Except as otherwise agreed to in this Section 5.4, Buyer shall be under no obligation to establish any pension plan or any retiree medical, dental, or life insurance plans for Business Employees. Except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.4, Seller or its designated Affiliates shall retain or reimburse Buyer for all liabilities and obligations with respect to benefits accrued under all benefit plans or arrangements maintained, administered, or contributed to by Seller or its Affiliates, including any such plans or arrangements applicable to Business Employees, employees, or former employees (including any beneficiary thereof). Except as expressly set forth in this Section -34- LUCENT TECHNOLOGIES PROPRIETARY USE PURSUANT TO COMPANY INSTRUCTIONS 5.4, no assets of any benefit plan or arrangement maintained, administered, or contributed to by Seller or any Affiliate thereof shall be transferred to Buyer or any Affiliate thereof. Buyer's benefit plans and policies, including vacation, retirement, severance and welfare plans, shall recognize (i) for purposes of satisfying any deductibles, co-pays and out-of-pocket maximums during the coverage period that includes the Closing Date, any payment made by any Transferred Employee towards deductibles, co-pays and out-of-pocket maximums in any health or other insurance plan of Seller or a Subsidiary, and (ii) for purposes of determining eligibility to participate, vesting and for any schedule of benefits based on service (other than for benefits accrued under any defined benefit plan not described in Section 5.4(g)), all service with Seller or a Subsidiary, including service with predecessor employers that was recognized by Seller or a Subsidiary and any prior unbridged service with Seller or a Subsidiary, provided that such service shall not be recognized to the extent such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits. Buyer will continue to provide relocation assistance to those Transferred Employees receiving it as of the Closing Date and tuition assistance to those Transferred Employees who are receiving such benefits as of the Closing Date for the current academic session. Buyer will honor the terms and conditions of Seller's international assignee program, including, without limitation, repatriation upon completion of assignment, completion bonuses, tax equalization and tax return preparation, with respect to Transferred Employees who are on international assignment as of the Closing Date, except that these costs shall be allocated between Buyer and Seller based on the portion of the international assignment occurring before the Closing Date (which shall be Seller's obligation) and on or after the Closing Date (which shall be Buyer's obligation). Until at least December 31, 2001, Buyer shall provide severance benefits to Nonrepresented Transferred Employees in the United States equivalent to the benefits, if any, that would have been paid to such Transferred Employees under the terms of the Lucent Management Separation Plan in effect as of the Closing Date had such employees continued to participate in such plan. (c) Employment with Buyer of Transferred Employees shall be effective as of the Business Day following the close of business on the Closing Date, except that the employment of individuals receiving short-term disability benefits or on approved leave of absence on the Closing Date will become effective as of the date they present themselves for work with the Buyer. (d) Buyer agrees that its health and welfare plans shall waive any pre-existing condition exclusion (to the extent such exclusion was waived under applicable health and welfare plans offered to the Transferred Employees by the Seller or any Subsidiary) and any proof of insurability. Seller agrees to transfer the cafeteria plan accounts and experience of Transferred Employees to substantially equivalent plans that exist or will be established by Buyer to the extent permitted by applicable plan terms and applicable law. (e) (i) As soon as possible after the Closing Date, Buyer shall cause one or more defined contribution savings plans intended to qualify under sections 401(a) and 401(k) -35- LUCENT TECHNOLOGIES PROPRIETARY USE PURSUANT TO COMPANY INSTRUCTIONS of the Code (the "BUYER NONREPRESENTED SAVINGS PLAN") to provide for the receipt of Nonrepresented Transferred Employees' lump sum cash distributions, in the form of an eligible rollover distribution, which includes outstanding participant loans, from the Lucent Savings Plan, provided such rollovers are made at the election of the Nonrepresented Transferred Employees and in accordance with the terms of the Buyer Nonrepresented Savings Plan. Seller shall cause the Lucent Savings Plan to permit the Nonrepresented Transferred Employees to elect a lump sum cash distribution of benefits accrued through the Closing Date in accordance with the Code. (ii) As soon as possible following the Closing Date, but in no event later than 120 days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall cause one or more defined contribution savings plans intended to qualify under sections 401(a) and 40l(k) of the Code (the "BUYER REPRESENTED SAVINGS PLAN") to provide, for two years after the Closing Date, an election to retain Lucent common stock or Avaya Inc. common stock held in the Lucent Stock Fund, Avaya Stock Fund or Employer Shares Fund within the Lucent Technologies Inc.

Upon the receipt by Seller of written evidence of (i) the adoption of the Buyer Represented Savings Plan by Buyer, (ii) the creation of the trust thereunder, (iii) the submission by Buyer of the Buyer Represented Savings Plan to the Internal Revenue Service for a favorable determination letter, and (iv) an opinion of Buyer's counsel satisfactory to Seller, substantially as set forth in Exhibit H, to the effect that the terms of Buyer Represented Savings Plan meet the applicable requirements of sections 401(a) and (k) of the Code, Seller shall direct the trustee of the LTSSP to transfer to the trust under the Buyer Represented Savings Plan liability for the account balance of each participant in the LTSSP who is a Represented Transferred Employee (the "TRANSFERRED SAVINGS PLAN PARTICIPANTS"), together with cash, cash equivalents or other mutually acceptable property, the value of which on such transfer date is equal to the liability. Upon completion of the transfer described herein, Seller and the LTSSP shall be relieved of all liabilities for the payment of the account balances of the Transferred Savings Plan Participants transferred to the Buyer Represented Savings Plan. Buyer and Seller shall cooperate in the filing of any IRS Forms 5310 required by the transfer of assets and liabilities described herein, and anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the transfer of assets and liabilities described herein shall not take place until the 31st day following the filing of all required Forms 5310. (f) Buyer agrees that effective as of the Closing Date, it will provide to all Represented Transferred Employees pension plans and post retirement medical, dental and life insurance plans in accordance with Section 5.4(m). Such pension plan shall, as of the Closing Date and through the Second Transfer Date (as defined in Section 5.4(g)), protect benefit rights and features as required by the regulations promulgated under Section 411(d)(6) of the Code provided under the Lucent Occupational Plan referred to in Section 5.4(g). Seller shall remain responsible for any benefits payable under a Benefit Plan with respect to claims incurred by Business Employees prior to the Closing Date except to the extent that the liability for such benefits has been transferred to and assumed by Buyer and -36- LUCENT TECHNOLOGIES PROPRIETARY USE PURSUANT TO COMPANY INSTRUCTIONS the Buyer's plans in accordance with this Section 5.4. The medical and dental plans maintained by Buyer shall recognize as dependents of the Transferred Employees any Class 2 dependents recognized by Seller. (g) In connection with the performance of its obligations under Section 5.4(f), Buyer shall, on or prior to a date (the "FIRST TRANSFER DATE") to be mutually agreed by Buyer and Seller but in no event more than 30 days after the Closing Date, establish or amend a defined benefit pension plan ("BUYER'S PENSION PLAN"), with a trust thereunder (the "REPRESENTED TRUST"), for the purpose of holding the pension plan liabilities and assets attributable to Represented Transferred Employees as described herein. On the First Transfer Date, Seller will transfer or cause to be transferred from the trust under the Lucent Technologies Inc. Pension Plan (the "LUCENT OCCUPATIONAL PLAN") to the Represented Trust cash or, to the extent agreed by the parties, marketable securities in an amount equal to 90% of the estimated Pension Transfer Amount for the Represented Transferred Employees, which obligation and associated liability shall be assumed by the Buyer Pension Plan and Represented Trust, plus interest on the amounts transferred from the Closing Date through the First Transfer Date at a rate equal to 8% per annum. As of the date six months after the First Transfer Date or such later date as may be agreed to by the parties (the "SECOND TRANSFER DATE"), Seller shall transfer or cause to be transferred from the trust under the Lucent Occupational Plan to the Represented Trust cash or, to the extent agreed by the parties, marketable securities in an amount equal to remaining balance of the Pension Transfer Amount, plus interest on the amounts transferred from the Closing Date through the Second Transfer Date at a rate equal to 8% per annum. The amount to be transferred as of the Second Transfer Date shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of any pension benefit payments made by the Lucent Occupational Plan on behalf of the Buyer Pension Plan prior to the Second Transfer Date. In the event an amount to be transferred on the Second Transfer Date is a negative amount, then Buyer shall transfer or cause to be transferred from the Represented Trust back to the trust under the Lucent Occupational Plan such amount in cash. Subject to the completion of the foregoing asset transfers, as of the Closing Date, all of the obligations and associated liabilities of the Lucent Occupational Plan relating to the Represented Transferred Employees shall be assumed in full by the Represented Trust and the Buyer Pension Plan. (h) For purposes of this Section 5.4, "PENSION TRANSFER AMOUNT" shall mean the greater of (A) and (B), where (A) shall be the minimum required transfer amount determined in accordance with the terms of Seller's pension plans and the requirements of Section 414(1) of the Code, utilizing the "safe harbor" rates and assumptions set forth in the regulations promulgated under Section 4044 of ERISA as of the Closing Date, except that the termination and retirement rate assumptions utilized for purposes of this Section 5.4(h) shall be the assumptions used by Seller to determine the funding requirements for the 2000 plan year and that no expense load, including any loading charge determined under the Loading Assumptions set forth in Appendix C to Part 4044 of the PBGC Regulations, shall be charged, and (B) shall be the sum of (I) and (II) less (III), where (I) is the accumulated benefit -37- LUCENT TECHNOLOGIES PROPRIETARY USE PURSUANT TO COMPANY INSTRUCTIONS obligation under FAS 87 as of the Closing Date with respect to Represented Transferred Employees, (II) is the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation for post-retirement medical and dental plans under FAS 106 as of the Closing Date with respect to Represented Transferred Employees, and (III) is the amount transferred under Section 5.4(i) with respect to the postretirement medical and dental plans for Represented Transferred Employees. For purposes of the preceding sentence, such accumulated benefit obligation and accumulated postretirement benefit obligation shall be determined on the basis of the plan provisions in effect on the Closing Date and the actuarial methods and assumptions (based on the terms and conditions of the United States collective bargaining agreement in effect as of September 30, 2000) utilized for purposes of Seller's financial disclosures under FAS 87 and 106 for such plans as of September 30, 2000. For purposes of Sections 5.4(g), (h), and (i), the term "Transferred Employee" shall include Business Employees as of the date hereof who terminate employment with the Seller or any Affiliate thereof between the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date and who are hired by Buyer or an Affiliate thereof within the first three months after the Closing Date. (i) Assets of Seller's VEBAs will be transferred to Buyer's VEBAs as described in this Section 5.4(i). This Section 5.4(i) shall govern the transfer of assets from the Lucent Postretirement Health VEBA for occupational employees to a corresponding Buyer Postretirement Health VEBA, which Buyer shall establish and submit to the IRS for a favorable ruling as to its tax-exempt status prior to the Second Transfer Date. On or prior to the Second Transfer Date, Seller shall determine the aggregate value, as of the Closing Date, of the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation of each Lucent plan funded by such Lucent Postretirement Health VEBA, with respect to all Represented Transferred Employees, and shall transfer or cause to be transferred cash or, to the extent agreed by the parties, marketable securities in an amount determined as set forth below. Such amount shall be equal to the fair market value as of the Closing Date of the assets of the plan funded by such Lucent VEBA multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the accumulated postretirement health benefit obligation under FAS 106 for Represented Transferred Employees whose postretirement health benefit is funded by such VEBA, and the denominator of which shall be the accumulated postretirement health benefit obligation under FAS 106 for all participants and dependents whose postretirement health benefit is funded by such VEBA. This Section 5.4(i) shall govern the transfer of assets from the Lucent Postretirement Life VEBA to a corresponding Buyer Postretirement Life VEBA, which Buyer shall establish and submit to the IRS for a favorable ruling as to its tax-exempt status prior to the Second Transfer Date. On or prior to the Second Transfer Date, Seller shall determine the aggregate value, as of the Closing Date, of the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation of the Lucent plan funded by such Lucent Postretirement Life VEBA, with respect to all Represented Transferred Employees, and shall transfer or cause to be transferred cash in an amount determined as set forth below. Such amount shall be equal to the accumulated -38- LUCENT TECHNOLOGIES PROPRIETARY USE PURSUANT TO COMPANY INSTRUCTIONS postretirement benefit obligation under FAS 106 for Represented Transferred Employees whose postretirement life benefit is funded by such VEBA. Buyer and Seller shall adopt, and shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause their insurers to adopt, procedures to implement such asset transfers in a reasonable and expeditious manner that is consistent with the underlying group life insurance contracts and applicable legal requirements. For purposes of this Section 5.4(i), all determinations shall be made as of the Closing Date, based on the active and inactive census data as of the Closing Date. For purposes of determining the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation, the assumptions and methods used by Lucent in determining the disclosure of accumulated postretirement benefit obligation under FAS 106 as of September 30, 2000 shall be used. The amounts to be transferred as described above shall be adjusted by the aggregate amount of any payments made by a Lucent VEBA in respect of Represented Transferred Employees (and by the aggregate amount of any payments made by a Buyer VEBA on behalf of the Lucent VEBA) prior to such transfer, and increased by interest of 8% per annum on such amounts from the Closing Date through the date of such transfer. Nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted to provide that any assets so transferred have reverted to Seller or Buyer. (j) Seller, on or prior to the Second Transfer Date, shall notify Buyer in writing of Seller's determination of the amounts of assets required to be transferred in accordance with the provisions of Sections 5.4(g), (h), and (i), shall provide Buyer with a copy of the actuarial reports relating to the determination of such amounts, together with such related materials as Buyer may reasonably request, and, in the case of the transfers of pension assets contemplated by Section 5.4(g) and (h), shall provide Buyer with a written determination by Seller's actuary that the amounts of assets proposed to be transferred are not less than the required amounts determined in accordance with this Agreement. (k) Buyer shall notify Seller in writing of Buyer's disagreement with any determination made by Seller pursuant to Section 5.4(j) as soon as practicable and in any event within 75 days after the date on which the information specified in Section 5.4(j) is provided to Buyer. If no such notice is given by Buyer prior to the expiration of the foregoing period, the determinations contained in Seller's notice to Buyer shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties. If Buyer gives written notice to Seller prior to the expiration of the foregoing period setting forth any objections to the determinations made by Seller, the parties shall attempt in good faith to reach an agreement as to all matters in dispute. Buyer shall not be entitled to object to the determinations of Seller based on any disagreement as to the rates or assumptions used by Seller so long as such rates and assumptions are those specified in this Section 5.4. The determinations of Seller's actuary under Sections 5.4(h), (i), and (j) shall be conclusive unless Buyer's actuary claims that the proper total of such amounts differs from Seller's determination by more than 1%. If the parties, notwithstanding such good faith effort, fail to resolve all matters in dispute within 30 days after Buyer advises Seller of its objections, and the amount in dispute is greater than 1% of the total amount determined by Seller's actuary under Sections 5.4(h), (i), and (j), then any remaining disputed -39- LUCENT TECHNOLOGIES PROPRIETARY USE PURSUANT TO COMPANY INSTRUCTIONS matters shall be finally and conclusively determined by a qualified independent actuary selected by Seller and Buyer, which actuary shall not be the regular actuary of either party. Promptly, but in no event later than 30 days after its acceptance of its appointment, the actuary shall determine (based solely on presentations by Seller and Buyer and not by independent review) only those matters in dispute and shall render a written report as to the disputed matters and the resulting calculation of the pension or other assets required to be transferred by Seller in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.4(g) or (i), which report shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties. The fees and expenses of the actuary shall be shared equally by the parties. (l) Seller hereby acknowledges that for FICA and FUTA tax purposes, Buyer qualifies as a successor employer with respect to the Transferred Employees. In connection with the foregoing, at Buyer's option, Seller agrees to follow the "Alternative Procedures" set forth in Section 5 of Revenue Procedure 96-60. Buyer shall notify Seller of its intention to follow the "Alternative Procedures" on or immediately after the Closing Date. If the "Alternative Procedures" are followed, Seller and Buyer understand that Buyer shall assume Seller's entire obligation to furnish a Form W-2, Wage and Tax Statement, to the Transferred Employees. In addition to all personnel files and records relating to the Transferred Employees that Seller shall deliver to Buyer as of the Closing Date or as otherwise required by this Agreement, Seller shall timely provide Buyer with any and all other information (and in such format and media) as it shall reasonably request to properly comply with the requirements in the preceding sentence, which in no event shall be more than 10 business days from the date of a written request for such information. (m) Buyer or one or more Buyer Designee that purchases the assets of the Business shall, on and as of the Closing Date, assume any and all collective bargaining agreements and other labor agreements, as identified in SCHEDULE 5.4(m), applicable to the Transferred Employees who are represented by the Communications Workers of America or the Confederacion de Trabajadores de Mexico (other than provisions of such agreements that are specific to Seller or its predecessors or Affiliates).

If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, Buyer (or any of its Affiliates) is in the opinion of Buyer's counsel compelled to disclose the Proprietary Information or else stand liable for contempt or suffer other censure or significant penalty, Buyer (or its Affiliate) may disclose only so much of the Proprietary Information to the party compelling disclosure as is required by Law. Buyer will exercise its (and will cause its Affiliates to exercise their) reasonable commercial efforts to obtain a protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Proprietary Information. -45- LUCENT TECHNOLOGIES PROPRIETARY USE PURSUANT TO COMPANY INSTRUCTIONS 6.3 BUYER'S PROPRIETARY INFORMATION (a) Except as provided in Section 6.3(b), after the Closing Date and for a period of five (5) years thereafter, Seller agrees that it will keep confidential all of Buyer's and its Affiliates' Proprietary Information that is conveyed to Buyer or a Buyer Designee as part of the Purchased Assets, including, for purposes of this Section 6.3, information about the Business' business plans and strategies, marketing ideas and concepts, especially with respect to unannounced products and services, present and future product plans, pricing, volume estimates, financial data, product enhancement information, business plans, marketing plans, sales strategies, customer information (including customers' applications and environments), market testing information, development plans, specifications, customer requirements, configurations, designs, plans, drawings, apparatus, sketches, software, hardware, data, prototypes, connecting requirements or other technical and business information.

If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, Seller (or any of its Affiliates) is in the opinion of Seller's counsel compelled to disclose the Proprietary Information or else stand liable for contempt or suffer other censure or significant penalty, Seller (or its Affiliate) may disclose only so much of the Proprietary Information to the party compelling disclosure as is required by Law. Seller will exercise its (and will cause its Affiliates to exercise their) reasonable commercial efforts to obtain a protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such Proprietary Information. -46- LUCENT TECHNOLOGIES PROPRIETARY USE PURSUANT TO COMPANY INSTRUCTIONS 6.4 CONFIDENTIAL NATURE OF AGREEMENT Except to the extent that disclosure thereof is required under accounting, stock exchange or Federal Securities Laws disclosure obligations, or labor relations law, both parties agree that the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and all attachments and amendments hereto and thereto shall be considered Proprietary Information protected under this Article 6.

The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, but not the obligation, exercisable by written notice to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party of the commencement of or assertion of any claim, action, suit or proceeding by a Third Party in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder (a "THIRD-PARTY CLAIM"), to assume the defense and control the settlement of such Third-Party Claim that (i) involves (and continues to involve) solely money damages, or (ii) involves (and continues to involve) claims for both money damages and equitable relief against the Indemnified Party that cannot be severed, where the claims for money damages are the primary claims asserted by the Third Party and the claims for equitable relief are incidental to the claims for money damages. (b) The Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as the case may be, shall have the right to participate in (but not control), at its own expense, the defense of any Third-Party Claim that the other is defending, as provided in this Agreement. (c) The Indemnifying Party, if it has assumed the defense of any Third-Party Claim as provided in this Agreement, shall not consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any such Third-Party Claim without the Indemnified Party's prior written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless such settlement or judgment relates solely to monetary damages. The Indemnifying Party shall not, without the Indemnified Party's prior written consent, enter into any compromise or settlement that (i) commits the Indemnified Party to take, or to forbear to take, any action, or (ii) does not provide for a complete release by such Third Party of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the sole and exclusive right to settle any Third-Party Claim, on such terms and conditions as it deems reasonably appropriate, to the extent such Third-Party Claim involves equitable or other non-monetary relief against the Indemnified Party, and shall have the right to settle any Third-Party Claim involving money damages for which Indemnifying Party has not assumed the defense pursuant to this Section 9.4 with the written consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. (d) In the event an Indemnified Party shall claim a right to payment pursuant to this Agreement, such Indemnified Party shall send written notice of such claim to the -53- LUCENT TECHNOLOGIES PROPRIETARY USE PURSUANT TO COMPANY INSTRUCTIONS Indemnifying Party. Such notice shall specify the basis for such claim. As promptly as possible after the Indemnified Party has given such notice, and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.3, the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall establish the merits and amount of such claim by mutual agreement, or, if necessary, by arbitration in a manner reasonably determined by mutual agreement of such parties. 10.
