Directors of Tyco. The Guide to Ethical Conduct meets the requirements of a ‘‘code of ethics’’ as
defined by Item 406 of Regulation S-K and applies to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial
Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, as well as all other employees. The Guide to Ethical Conduct
also meets the requirements of a code of business, conduct and ethics under the listing standards of the
New York Stock Exchange (‘‘NYSE’’). The Guide to Ethical Conduct is posted on our website at
www.tyco.com under the heading ‘‘Corporate Citizenship—Governance’’. We will also provide a copy of
the Guide to Ethical Conduct to shareholders upon request. We disclose any amendments to the Guide
