SECOND AMENDMENT TO
RETENTION AGREEMENT

 

This SECOND AMENDMENT TO
RETENTION AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”) is entered into as of the 9th day of
December 2005, by and between Tyco International Ltd. (“Parent”) and Richard J.
Meelia (“Executive”).

W
I T N E S S E T H

 

WHEREAS, Parent and
Executive entered into a Retention Agreement effective as of February 14, 2002,
which was amended effective December 9, 2004 (the “Retention Agreement”) to
encourage Executive to remain in the employ of the Company (as defined therein)
through December 31, 2005 and to ensure the continued availability of his
advice and counsel, and to assure that he would not provide services for
competing business in accordance with the terms thereof; and

WHEREAS, the Retention Agreement,
as amended, provides for certain benefits to Executive in the event that his
employment with the Company is terminated, including certain benefits if his
employment is terminated for any reason other than for Cause at any time
subsequent to February 28, 2005 and prior to December 31, 2005; and

WHEREAS, Parent and
Executive have agreed further to amend the Retention Agreement to extend the December
31, 2005 date described above to the earlier of June 30, 2007 or the date on
which Executive terminates his employment upon three months’ prior notice to
Parent and to make certain other changes in the terms and conditions set forth
therein.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby
acknowledged, Parent and Executive hereby agree as follows:

1.             Section 1(e) of the Retention Agreement is hereby amended
and restated to read as follows:

(e)
“Date of Termination” means (1) the effective date on which executive’s
employment by the Company terminates as specified in a Notice of Termination by
the Company or Executive, as the case may be, or (2) if Executive’s employment
by the Company terminates by reason of death, the date of death of the
Executive.  Notwithstanding the previous
sentence, (i) if Executive’s employment is terminated for Disability (as
defined in Section 3(b)) then such Date of Termination shall be no earlier than
30 days following the date on which a Notice of Termination is received by
Executive, and (ii) if Executive’s employment is terminated by the Company
other than for Cause or by Executive, then such Date of Termination shall be no
earlier than three months following the date on which a Notice of Termination
is received by Executive or by Parent (as the case may be).”

 

2.             Sections 2, 3, 4(a) and 4(f) of the Retention Agreement are
hereby amended by deleting the phrase “June 1, 2005” and substituting the
phrase “June 30, 2007” therefore.

3.             Sections 4(b), 4(c) and 4(e) of the Retention Agreement are
each hereby amending by deleting the text thereof in its entirety and substituting
the following therefor:

                [Deleted by Second Amendment]

4.             Section 4(d) of the Retention Agreement is hereby
amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(d)  Death. 
If Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of his death on or
prior to June 30, 2007, the Company shall pay Executive’s estate the Accrued
Benefits.  The Company shall also pay
Executive’s estate the Cash Retention Benefits in a lump sum in the manner
calculated pursuant to Section 4(g). 
Executive’s spouse and dependent children may continue in the Company’s
medical and dental plans for up to 36 months from the Date of Termination,
subject to payment of premiums required of active employees similarly situated.

5.             Section 4(g) of the Retention Agreement is hereby
amended and restated its entirety as follows:

(g)  Termination After February 28, 2005.  If Executive’s employment is terminated by
Executive for any reason (other than death) or by the Company without Cause or
upon Executive’s Disability at any time subsequent to February 28, 2005 and
prior to June 30, 2007 (the “Extension Period”), subject to signing by
Executive of a general release of employment claims in a form and manner
satisfactory to the Company and the expiration of any legally required waiting
period, and adhering to the terms set forth in Sections 7, 8, 9 and 11, the
Company shall pay to Executive (in addition to the Accrued Benefits) the
following:

 

Cash
Retention Benefits —  (i) an
amount equal to three times the sum of (x) Executive’s then current annual base
salary plus (y) the average of the cash bonus received by Executive for four
fiscal years of the Company immediately preceding the Date of Termination, or
if greater, immediately preceding February 28, 2005, plus (z) the greater of
ten percent (10%) of Executive’s then current base salary or $20,000, and (ii)
an amount equal to the product of (A) the maximum annual bonus that Executive
would have been eligible to earn under the Company’s annual bonus plan for the
bonus measurement period during which the Date of Termination occurs, and (B) a
fraction, the numerator which is the number of days from the first day of such
period through the Date of Termination and the denominator of which is the
total number of days in such measurement period, together with a similarly pro
rated bonus with respect to any applicable long term incentive plan then in
effect. (The

 

 

2

 

payments described in the
preceding sentence shall be referred to as the “Cash Retention Benefits”.)  For the period on and after January 1, 2006
through the payment date, interest shall be credited to the Cash Retention
Benefits amount at the rate of 4.32%.   The Cash
Retention Benefits (and interest accrued thereon) will be paid to Executive on
the second business day following the expiration of the six-month period
immediately following the Date of Termination.

 

Continuing Benefits — In
addition, the Company will provide Executive with the following benefits for a
period of three years following the Date of Termination:  medical and dental insurance (subject to
Executive’s payment of premiums required of active employees similar situated),
life insurance, contribution credits under the Company’s Supplemental Savings
and Retirement Plan (including contribution credits equivalent to the matching
contributions that would have been provided to Executive under the Company’s
Retirement Savings and Investment Plan had Executive remained employed by the
Company during such period) and access to the Company’s aircraft for up to 150
hours a year (reduced by the number of hours of personal use of Company
aircraft by Executive and any family members prior to his Date of Termination) (hereinafter,
the “Continuing Benefits”).  All
Continuing Benefits (other than in the case of Executive’s access to the
Company aircraft as described above) shall be provided to Executive at a level
similar to that provided on the Date of Termination and will commence upon the
Date of Termination, and Executive’s access to the Company’s aircraft, as
described above, will commence six months following the Date of Termination.

 

Treatment
of Pre-Fiscal Year 2006 Equity Awards — In addition, (i)  during the three (3) year period beginning on
the Date of Termination, Executive shall continue to vest in any shares of
restricted stock granted to Executive by Parent on or before March 10, 2005 that
are still subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture and (ii) any options to
purchase common shares of Parent granted on or before March 10, 2005 that
remain unvested and unexercisable shall become immediately vested upon
Executive’s Date of Termination, unless the Terms and Conditions of Executive’s
stock option award expressly provide otherwise, and (iii) Executive’s vested
options shall remain exercisable for the following periods following the Date
of Termination, provided that no stock option may be exercised on a date later
than the option’s original expiration date:

 

•      For options granted on and after March 7,
2003, the applicable exercise period described in the original stock option
awards documents;

•      For options granted on October 18, 1999,
October 3, 2000, October 24, 2000, October 1, 2001, and October 26, 2001, such
options shall be exercised on the earlier of the second 

 

 

3

 

anniversary
of the Date of Termination or the date of the option’s expiration; provided,
however, in each case that the closing price of the stock on the date preceding
the option exercise exceeds the applicable option exercise price.; and

•      For all other outstanding options, such
options shall be exercisable for the greater of two and one-half months
following the date on which the option would otherwise terminate or until the
last day of the calendar year in which the option would otherwise terminate under
the original stock option award documents.

 

Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to make any payments or provide
any Continuing Benefits pursuant to this Section 4(g) in the event that
Executive and Parent shall have executed a mutually acceptable employment or
retention agreement in replacement hereof prior to the expiration of the
Extension Period.

6.             Executive acknowledges and agrees that, as set forth in
the provisions of Section 4(g) of the Retention Agreement, the receipt of all
items enumerated therein is conditioned upon his compliance with the covenants
set forth in Sections 7, 8, 9 and 11 of the Retention Agreement.

7.             Executive and Company may further amend the Retention
Agreement to provide that payments and/or benefits shall be made in a manner
that complies with the provisions of Code Section 409A, in a way that preserves
the intended economic benefits without any increase in cost or burden to the
Company, as determined by the Company in its discretion.

8.             Except as specifically modified in Sections 1-5 above,
the terms of the Retention Agreement, as previously amended, shall remain in
full force and effect.

IN
WITNESS WHEREOF, Parent and Executive have caused this Amendment to be executed
as of the date first above written.

TYCO SUPPLEMENTAL SAVINGS AND

RETIREMENT PLAN

 

Amended and Restated Effective

 

January 1, 2005

 

 

ARTICLE I

 

Purpose

 

1.1.          Supplemental
Executive Retirement Plan.  Tyco
International (US) Inc. previously established and maintained the Tyco
International (US) Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”).  The purpose of the SERP was to provide
certain of the key employees of Tyco International (US) Inc. and the key
employees of its parents, subsidiaries and affiliates with benefits intended to
make up for amounts that could not be contributed on their behalf as matching
contributions under the Tyco International (US) Inc. Retirement Savings and
Investment Plan (“RSIP”) due to certain restrictions applicable under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).  In connection with the amendment and
restatement of this Plan (as defined below), and in light of the enactment of Code
Section 409A, the SERP was frozen as of December 31, 2004; benefits accrued
under that plan as of December 31, 2004 will remain payable in accordance with
its current terms (subject to any changes made in such terms for benefits not
vested as of December 31, 2004 in order to comply with the provisions of Code
Section 409A and regulations thereunder), but there will be no further benefit
accruals under the SERP from and after December 31, 2004.

 

1.2.          Deferred
Compensation Plan.  TME Management
Corp. adopted the Tyco Deferred Compensation Plan, effective April 1, 1994, to
allow a select group of key management or other highly compensated employees of
the Company and its parents, affiliates and subsidiaries to defer the receipt
of compensation that would otherwise be payable to them. TME Management Corp.
hereby amends and restates the Tyco Deferred Compensation Plan, effective as of
January 1, 2005, to (i) rename it the Tyco Supplemental Savings and Retirement
Plan (“Plan”), (ii) change certain of the Plan’s provisions applicable to
future deferred compensation elections, and (iii) provide for additional
benefits intended to make up for contributions that cannot be made under the
RSIP for the benefit of certain key employees due to certain restrictions applicable
under the Code.  TME Management Corp.
intends that the Plan shall at all times be maintained on an unfunded basis for
federal income tax purposes under the Code, and administered as a
non-qualified, “top hat” plan exempt from the substantive requirements of the
Employee Retirement Income Security of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”).  The provisions of this Plan as herein amended
and restated shall apply to Base Salary Deferrals, Commission Compensation
Deferrals, Spillover

Deferrals,
Matching Credits, Company Credits and Discretionary Credits for Plan Years
beginning on or after January 1, 2005, to Bonus Compensation Deferrals for

must designate, on an Enrollment and Payment Agreement or by such other means
as may be established by the Plan Administrator, the portion of the credits to
their Account that shall be allocated among the various Measurement Funds.  In default of such designation, credits to a
Participant’s Account shall be allocated to one or more default Measurement
Funds as determined by the Plan Administrator in its sole

 

12

 

discretion.  A Participant’s Account shall be credited
with all deemed earnings (or losses) generated by the Measurement Funds, as
elected by the Participant, on each business day for the sole purpose of
determining the amount of earnings to be credited or debited to such Account as
if the designated balance of the Account had been invested in the applicable
Measurement Fund.  Notwithstanding that
the rates of return credited to Participant’s Accounts are based upon the
actual performance of the corresponding Measurement Funds, the Company shall
not be obligated to invest any amount credited to a Participant’s Account under
this Plan in such Measurement Funds or in any other investment funds.  Upon notice to the Plan Administrator in the manner
it prescribes, a Participant may reallocate the Funds to which his or her
Account is deemed to be allocated.

 

7.3.          Valuation
of Account.  The value of a
Participant’s Account as of any date shall equal the amounts theretofore
credited to such Account, including any earnings (positive or negative) deemed
to be earned on such Account in accordance with Section 7.2, less the amounts
theretofore deducted from such Account.

 

7.4.          Statement
of Account.  The Plan Administrator
shall provide or make available to each Participant (including electronically),
not less frequently than quarterly, a statement in such form as the Plan
Administrator deems desirable setting forth the balance standing to the credit
of his or her Account.

 

7.5.          Payments
from Account.  Any payment made to or
on behalf of a Participant from his or her Account in an amount which is less
than the entire balance of his or her Account shall be made pro rata from each
of the Measurement Funds to which such Account is then allocated.

 

7.6.          Separate
Accounting.  If and to the extent
required for the proper administration of the vesting or payments provisions of
the Plan, the Plan Administrator may segregate a Participant’s Account into
sub-accounts on the books and records of the Plan, all of which sub-accounts
shall, together, constitute the Participant’s Account.

 

ARTICLE VIII

 

Payments
to Participants

 

8.1.          Annual
Election.  Except as otherwise
provided in Sections 6.3, 6.4, 8.3 or 8.4, any portion of the Participant’s
Account attributable to his or her Compensation Deferrals, vested Matching
Credits, vested Company Credits or vested Discretionary Credits for a Plan Year
shall be distributed as a payment to be made or to commence following the
Participant’s termination of employment (“Termination Payment”) or as a payment
to be made or to commence at a specified date, without reference to the
Participant’s termination of employment (an “In-Service Payment”).  Termination Payments and In-Service Payments
shall

 

13

 

be
made in one of the following methods, as elected by the Participant in the
Enrollment and Payment Agreement filed with the Plan Administrator for such
Plan Year: (i) one lump sum; or (ii) annual installments payable over up to
fifteen years. 
A Termination Payment shall be made, or shall commence, on or as soon as
practicable after March 1st of the year following the year in which the
Participant’s Termination Date occurs.  An
In-Service Payment shall be made, or shall commence, on or as soon as
practicable after March 1st of the payment year designated by the Participant
in the applicable Enrollment and Payment Agreement, which year shall be no
earlier than the fifth Plan Year following the Plan Year for which the initial
filing of the Enrollment and Payment Agreement was made with respect to that
In-Service Payment (provided, that if the Participant’s employment terminates
before the scheduled payment year for one or more In-Service Payments, and the
Participant is not re-employed before the last day of the year in which such
termination occurs, such payment shall instead be made, or shall commence, on
or as soon as practicable after March 1st of the year following the year in
which the Participant’s Termination Date occurs).

 

8.2.          Change
in Election.  Subject to Section 10.20,
a Participant may change the payment date and/or the form of an existing
In-Service Payment election for a Plan Year by filing a new payment election,
in the form specified by the Plan Administrator, at least 12 months prior to
the original payment date (in the case of installment payments, the date of the
first scheduled installment payment), provided that such new election delays
the payment year by at least five years from the original payment year, and
provided, further, that such change in election shall not be effective until 12
months from the date it is filed.  No
change in payment date or form of payment may be made with respect to a
Termination Payment once elected.  In addition,
a Participant’s reemployment following the commencement of installment payments
shall not cause any suspension or interruption in such installment payments.

 

8.3.          Cash-Out
Payments.  Notwithstanding any
election made under Section 8.1 or Section 8.2, if (i) the total value of the
Participant’s Account on the first day of the Plan Year following his or her
Termination Date is less than $5000 or (ii) the Participant’s termination is
due to voluntary resignation (other than Retirement or Disability), then the
Participant’s Account shall be paid to the Participant in one lump sum on or as
soon as practicable after March 1st of the year following the year in which the
Participant’s Termination Date occurs.

 

8.4.          Death
or Disability Benefit.  Upon the
death or Disability of a Participant, the Participant or the Participant’s
Beneficiary, as applicable, shall be paid the balance in his or her Account in
the form of a lump sum payment, with such payment to be made as soon as
practicable after the calendar quarter in which occurs such Participant’s death
or Disability.  Such payment shall be in
an amount equal to the value of the Participant’s Account of the last day of
the calendar quarter following the Participant’s death or Disability, with the
Measurement Funds being deemed to have been liquidated on that date to make the
payment.

 

14

 

8.5.          Valuation
of Payments.  Any lump sum benefit
under Sections 8.1, 8.2 or 8.3 shall be payable in an amount equal to the value
of the Participant’s Account (or relevant portion thereof) as of the December
31 preceding the relevant payment date, with the Measurement Funds being deemed
to have been liquidated on that date to make the payment.  The first annual installment payment in a
series of installment payments shall be equal to (i) the value of the
Participant’s Account (or relevant portion thereof) as of the December 31
preceding the relevant payment date, with the Measurement Funds being deemed to
have been liquidated on that date to make the payment, divided by (ii) the
number of installment payments elected by the Participant.  The remaining installments shall be paid in
an amount equal to (iii) the value of such Account (or relevant portion
thereof) as of the December 31 preceding the relevant payment date, with the
Measurement Funds being deemed to have been liquidated on that date to make the
payment, divided by (iv) the number of remaining unpaid installment payments.

 

8.6.          Unforeseeable
Emergency.  In the event that the
Plan Administrator, upon written request of a Participant, determines that the
Participant has suffered an “unforeseeable emergency” within the meaning of
Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(ii), the Participant shall be paid from that portion
of his or her Account resulting from Compensation Deferrals, as soon as
practical following such determination, an amount necessary to meet the
emergency, after deduction of any and all taxes
as may be required pursuant to Section 8.7 (but in no event to exceed the
maximum permitted amount determined under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(ii)).

 

8.7.          Withholding
Taxes.  The Company may make such
provisions and take such action as it may deem necessary or appropriate for the
withholding of any taxes which the Company is required by any law or regulation
of any governmental authority, whether federal, state or local, to withhold in
connection with any benefits under the Plan, including, but not limited to, the
withholding of appropriate sums from any amount otherwise payable to the
Participant (or his or her Beneficiary). 
Each Participant, however, shall be responsible for the payment of all
individual tax liabilities relating to any such benefits.

 

8.8.          Effect
of Payment.  The full payment of the
applicable benefit under this Article VIII shall completely discharge all obligations
on the part of the Company to the Participant (and each Beneficiary) with
respect to the operation of this Plan, and the Participant’s (and Beneficiary’s)
rights under this Plan shall terminate.

ARTICLE IX

 

Claims
Procedures

 

9.1.          Claim.  A Participant who believes that he or she is
being denied a benefit to which he or she is entitled under the Plan may file a
written request for such benefit with the Plan Administrator, setting forth his
or her claim for benefits.

 

9.2.          Claim
Decision.  The Plan Administrator
shall reply to any claim filed under Section 9.1 within 90 days of receipt,
unless it determines to extend such reply period for an additional 90 days for
reasonable cause.  If the claim is denied
in whole or in part, such reply shall include a written explanation, using
language calculated to be understood by the Participant, setting forth:

 

(i)            the specific reason or reasons for such denial;

 

(ii)           the specific reference to relevant provisions of this Plan
on which such denial is based;

 

(iii)          a description of any additional material or information
necessary for the Participant to perfect his or her claim and an explanation
why such material or such information is necessary;

 

(iv)          appropriate information as to the steps to be taken if the
Participant wishes to submit the claim for review;

 

(v)           the time limits for requesting a review under Section 9.3
and for review under Section 9.4 hereof; and

 

(vi)          the Participant’s right to bring an action for benefits
under Section 502 of ERISA.

 

9.3.          Request for Review. 
Within 60 days after the receipt by the Participant of the
written explanation described above, the Participant may request in writing
that the Plan Administrator review its determination.  The Participant or his or her duly authorized
representative may, but need not, review the relevant documents and submit
issues and comment in writing for consideration by the Plan Administrator.  If the Participant does not request a review
of the initial determination within such 60-day period, the Participant shall
be barred and estopped from challenging the determination.

 

9.4.          Review
of Decision.  After considering all
materials presented by the Participant, the Plan Administrator will render a written
decision, setting forth the specific reasons for the decision and containing
specific references to the relevant provisions of this Plan on which the
decision is based.  The decision on
review shall normally be made within 60 days after the Plan Administrator’s
receipt of the Participant’s claim or request. 
If an extension of time is required for

 

16

 

a
hearing or other special circumstances, the Participant shall be notified and
the time limit shall be 120 days.  The
decision shall be in writing and shall state the reasons and the relevant Plan
provisions and the Participant’s right to bring an action for benefits under
Section 502 of ERISA.  All decisions on
review shall be final and shall bind all parties concerned.

 

9.5.          Special
Appeals Committee.  Notwithstanding
the above, any claim, or appeal of a claim denial, under this Plan or any
predecessor plan that falls within the scope of the resolution adopted by the
Tyco International (US) Inc. Board of Directors on December 8, 2003 creating a
committee (the “Special Appeals Committee”) with respect to benefit claims and
appeals by certain former executives (“Named Executives”) as contemplated
therein shall be handled by the Special Appeals Committee under and in
accordance with the procedures adopted by the Special Appeals Committee, which
procedures shall be incorporated by reference herein.  In connection therewith, the Special Appeals
Committee shall have full discretionary power and authority to interpret the
Plan or any predecessor plan, to prescribe, amend and rescind any rules, forms
and procedures as it deems necessary or appropriate for the proper
administration of the Plan or any predecessor plan and to make any other
determinations, including factual determinations, and take such other actions
as it deems necessary or advisable in carrying out its duties under the Plan or
any predecessor plan with respect to the Named Executives.  All decisions and determinations by the
Special Appeals Committee shall be final and binding on the Company, the Named
Executives, their Beneficiaries and any other persons having or claiming an
interest hereunder by or through them.

 

ARTICLE X

 

Miscellaneous

 

10.1.        Protective Provisions. 
Each Participant and Beneficiary shall cooperate with the Plan
Administrator by furnishing any and all information requested by the Plan
Administrator in order to facilitate the payment of benefits hereunder.  If a Participant or Beneficiary refuses to
cooperate with the Plan Administrator, the Company shall have no further
obligation to the Participant or Beneficiary under the Plan, other than payment
of the then-current balance of the Participant’s Accounts in accordance with
prior elections and subject to Section 10.12.

 

10.2.        Inability to Locate Participant or Beneficiary.  In the event that the Plan Administrator is
unable to locate a Participant or Beneficiary within two years following the
date the Participant was to commence receiving payment, the entire amount
allocated to the Participant’s Account shall be forfeited.  If, after such forfeiture, the Participant or
Beneficiary later claims such benefit, such benefit shall be reinstated without
interest or earnings from the date payment was to commence pursuant to Article
VIII.

 

17

 

10.3.        Designation of Beneficiary.  Each Participant may designate in writing a
Beneficiary or Beneficiaries (which Beneficiary may be an entity other than a
natural person if approved by the Committee in its sole discretion) to receive
any payments which may be made under the Plan following the Participant’s
death.  No Beneficiary designation shall
become effective until it is in writing and it is filed with the Plan
Administrator.  A Beneficiary designation
under the Plan may be separate from all other retirement-type plans sponsored
by the Company.  Such designation may be
changed or canceled by the Participant at any time without the consent of any
such Beneficiary.  Any such designation,
change or cancellation must be made in a form approved by the Plan
Administrator and shall not be effective until received by the Plan
Administrator, or its designee.  If no
Beneficiary has been named, or the designated Beneficiary or Beneficiaries
shall have predeceased the Participant, the Beneficiary shall be the
Participant’ s estate.  If a Participant
designates more than one Beneficiary, the interests of such Beneficiaries shall
be paid in equal shares, unless the Participant has specifically designated
otherwise.

 

10.4.        No Contract of Employment.  Neither the establishment of the Plan, nor
any modification thereof, nor the creation of any fund, trust or account, nor
the payment of any benefits shall be construed as  giving any Participant or any person
whosoever, the right to be retained in the service of the Company, and all
Participants and other employees shall remain subject to discharge to the same
extent as if the Plan had never been adopted.

 

10.5.        No Limitation on Company Actions.  Nothing contained in the Plan shall be
construed to prevent the Company from taking any action which is deemed by it
to be appropriate or in its best interest. 
No Participant, Beneficiary, or other person shall have any claim
against the Company as a result of such action.

 

10.6.        Obligations to Company.  If a Participant becomes entitled to a
payment of benefits under the Plan, and if at such time the Participant has
outstanding any debt, obligation, or other liability representing an amount
owing to the Company, then the Company may offset such amount owed to it
against the amount of benefits otherwise distributable.  Such determination shall be made by the Plan
Administrator in its sole discretion.

 

10.7.        No Liability for Action or Omission.  Neither the Company nor any director, officer
or employee of the Company shall be responsible or liable in any manner to any
Participant, Beneficiary or any person claiming through them for any benefit or
action taken or omitted in connection with the granting of benefits, the
continuation of benefits, or the interpretation and administration of this
Plan.

 

10.8.        Nonalienation of Benefits.  Except as otherwise specifically provided
herein, all amounts payable hereunder shall be paid only to the person or
persons designated by the Plan and not to any other person or corporation.  No

 

18

 

part
of a Participant’s Account shall be liable for the debts, contracts, or
engagements of any Participant, his or her Beneficiary, or successors in
interest, nor shall such accounts of a Participant be subject to execution by
levy, attachment, or garnishment or by any other legal or equitable proceeding,
nor shall any such person have any right to alienate, anticipate, commute,
pledge, encumber, or assign any benefits or payments hereunder in any manner
whatsoever.  If any Participant,
Beneficiary or successor in interest is adjudicated bankrupt or purports to
anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or charge any
payment from the Plan, voluntarily or involuntarily, the Plan Administrator, in
its discretion, may cancel such payment (or any part thereof) to or for the
benefit of such Participant, Beneficiary or successor in interest in such
manner as the Plan Administrator shall direct. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, all or a portion of a Participant’s
Account may be awarded to an “alternate payee” (within the meaning of Section 206(d)(3)(K)
of ERISA) if and to the extent so provided in a judgment, decree or order that,
in the Committee’s sole discretion, would meet the applicable requirements for
qualification as a “qualified domestic relations order” (within the meaning of
Section 206(d)(3)(B)(i) of ERISA) if the Plan were subject to the provisions of
Section 206(d) of ERISA.

 

10.9.        Liability for Benefit Payments.  The obligation to pay or provide for payment
of a benefit hereunder to any Participant or his or her Beneficiary shall, at
all times, be the sole and exclusive liability and responsibility of the
Company that employed the Participant immediately prior to the event giving
rise to a payment obligation (the “Responsible Company”).  No other Company or parent, affiliated,
subsidiary or associated company shall be liable or responsible for such
payment, and nothing in this Plan shall be construed as creating or imposing
any joint or shared liability for any such payment (other than the TIL
guarantee set forth in Section 10.10 below). 
The fact that a Company or a parent, affiliated, subsidiary or
associated company other than the Responsible Company actually makes one or
more payments to a Participant or his Beneficiary shall not be deemed a waiver
of this provision; rather, any such payment shall be deemed to have been made
on behalf of and for the account of the Responsible Company.

 

10.10.      TIL Guarantee. 
TIL guarantees the payment by the Responsible Company of any benefits
provided for or contemplated under this Plan which either (i) the Responsible
Company concedes are due and owing to a Participant or Beneficiary or (ii) are
finally determined to be due and owing to a Participant or Beneficiary, but
which in either case the Responsible Company fails to pay.

 

10.11.      Unfunded Status of Plan. 
The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” deferred and
supplemental retirement compensation plan for Participants, with all benefits
payable hereunder constituting an unfunded contractual payment obligation of
the Company.  Nothing contained in the
Plan, and no action taken pursuant to the Plan, shall create or be construed to
create a trust of any kind.  The Company
shall reflect on its books the Participants’ interests hereunder, but no
Participant or any other person shall under any

 

19

 

circumstances
acquire any property interest in any specific assets of the Company.  Nothing contained in this Plan and no action
taken pursuant hereto shall create or be construed to create a fiduciary
relationship between the Company and any Participant or other person.  A Participant’s right to receive payments
under the Plan shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured general
creditor of the Company.  Except to the
extent that the Company determines that a “rabbi” trust may be established in
connection with the Plan, all payments shall be made from the general funds of
the Company, and no special or separate fund shall be established and no
segregation of assets shall be made to assure payment.  The Company’s obligations under this Plan are
not assignable or transferable except to (i) any corporation or partnership
which acquires all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or (ii) any
corporation or partnership into which the Company may be merged or
consolidated.  The provisions of the Plan
shall inure to the benefit of each Participant and the Participant’s
Beneficiaries, heirs, executors, administrators or successors in interest.

 

10.12.      Forfeiture for Cause. 
Not withstanding any other provision of this Plan, if a Participant’s
employment is terminated for Cause, or if the Plan Administrator determines that
a Participant whose employment terminates for any other reason had engaged in
conduct prior to his or her termination which would have constituted Cause,
then the Plan Administrator may determine in its sole discretion that such
Participant’s Account under the Plan shall be forfeited and shall not be
payable hereunder.

 

10.13.      Governing Law. 
This Plan shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws
of the State of New York to the extent not superseded by federal law, without
reference to the principles of conflict of laws.

 

10.14.      Severability of Provisions.  If any provision of this Plan shall be held
invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect
any other provisions hereof, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as
if such provisions had not been included.

 

10.15.      Headings and Captions. 
The headings and captions herein are provided for reference and
convenience only, shall not be considered part of the Plan, and shall not be
employed in the construction of the Plan.

 

10.16.      Gender, Singular and Plural.  All pronouns and any variations thereof shall
be deemed to refer to the masculine, feminine, or neuter, as the identity of
the person or persons may require.  As
the context may require, the singular may read as the plural and the plural as
the singular.

 

10.17.      Notice.  Any
notice or filing required or permitted to be given to the Plan Administrator
under the Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and hand delivered, or sent by
registered or certified mail, to the Plan Administrator, Tyco Supplemental
Savings and Retirement Plan, c/o Tyco HR Benefits, Tyco International, One Town
Center Road, Boca Raton, FL 33486-1010, or to such

 

20

 

other
person or entity as the Plan Administrator may designate from time to
time.  Such notice shall be deemed given
as to the date of delivery, or, if delivery is made by mail, as of the date
shown on the postmark on the receipt for registration or certification.

 

10.18.      Amendment and Termination.  The Plan may be amended, suspended, or
terminated at any time by TME Management Corp. or by the Plan Administrator in
its sole discretion; provided, however, that no such amendment, suspension or
termination shall result in any reduction in the value of a Participant’s
Account determined as of the effective date of such amendment.  In addition, the Plan, and/or the terms of
any election made hereunder, may be amended at any time and in any respect by
TME Management Corp. or by the Plan Administrator if and to the extent
recommended by counsel in order to conform to the requirements of Code Section
409A and regulations thereunder or to maintain the tax-qualified status of the
RSIP.  In the event of any suspension or
termination of the Plan, payment of Participants’ Accounts shall be made under
and in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the applicable elections
(except that the Plan Administrator may determine, in its sole discretion, to
accelerate payments to all Participants if and to the extent that such
acceleration is permitted under Code Section 409A and regulations thereunder).

 

10.19.      Delay of Payment for Specified Employees.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Plan to
the contrary, in the case of any Participant who is a “specified employee”
within the meaning of Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i), no distribution under this
Plan may be made, or may commence, before the date which is 6 months after the
date of such Participant’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Code
Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) (or, if earlier, the date of the Participant’s death).

 

10.20.      Special Rule Regarding Election Changes in 2005 and 2006.  To the extent permitted under the provisions
of Internal Revenue Service Notice 2005-1, A-19(c) and subsequent related
guidance, the Company may, in its sole discretion, permit a Participant to
modify an existing election with respect to the timing and form of payment of
the Participant’s Account hereunder without regard to the limitations set forth
in Section 8.2, so long as (i) such modification is made on or before December
31, 2006 (or, in the case of any amount that would have been payable in 2006,
December 31, 2005), and (ii) such modified election is consistent with the
provisions of Sections 8.1 and 10.19 hereof.
